Multiline text editing control.

DescriptionΒΆ

TextEdit is meant for editing large, multiline text. It also has facilities for editing code, such as syntax highlighting support and multiple levels of undo/redo.

Note: When holding down Alt, the vertical scroll wheel will scroll 5 times as fast as it would normally do. This also works in the Godot script editor.

In the returned vector, x is the column, y is the line. If no results are found, both are equal to -1.

var result = search("print", SEARCH_WHOLE_WORDS, 0, 0)

    # Result found.
    var line_number = result.y
    var column_number = result.x
