SynEdit for Firemonkey?

3.2k views Asked by At

Is there a synedit package that works with firemonkey (or someone working on it) ?

From what I can gather there was a VGScene port earlier (see: this site), but it seems to been removed.

There most likely is not (at the moment):

From the homepage:

It is a pure-VCL/CLX control, meaning it is not a wrapper for Microsoft Windows controls and so no run-time library is required.

CLX or Component Library for Cross Platform is the cross-platform equivalent of the VCL - Borland's widget library.

From Nakeymonkey - native controls for firemonkey

With the VCL, Borland never had to worry about all of this because they just wrote a wrapper around the Windows API Rich Edit control. So why didn’t Embarcadero do the same thing with Firemonkey? Because Firemonkey also needs to compile for OS X and the Windows API Rich Edit control doesn’t exist there.
