TextEditor::recreateCaret() issue

General JUCE discussion

I suspect it has to do with this change…

I have a textEditor with a LookAndFeel which changes the cursor color… which used to work fine… But I just noticed that the cursor color isn’t changed… and TextEditor:: recreateCaret() isn’t triggered when you click on the Editor. drawTextEditorOutline() is called… but the call to my LookAndFeel createCaretComponent() never happens.

Thanks,

enablementChanged is called in response to setEnabled(), not when it gains/loses focus, which seems to be what you're talking about here. 

You probably want focusGained/focusLost() instead?

Sorry I revised my post to be more accurate…

The issue has to do with a change in behavior – so my LookAndFeel createCaretComponent() is never being called.

If I add a call to recreateCaret() in focusGained() it still doesn’t update the caret 'cause it isn’t == nullptr

Okay…. the fix is:

void TextEditor::lookAndFeelChanged()
{
    caret = nullptr;
    recreateCaret();
    repaint();
}

Thanks, seems like a good idea, will add that!
