Controller for ExtraText

The ExtraController is build around a specific control created for Adichatz. This is a FieldController that means that it can be linked to the databinding service.

Control

The control org.adichatz.engine.widgets.extratext.ExtraText was developped by Adichatz based on Alonso Dominguez's work.
A ExtraText widget is a small editor widget managing bold, underline, hyperlink around a StyledText widget.

Add Bold, Italic, underline, strikethrough feature to character.
Cut, Copy, Paste.
Add Hyperlink (browser or mail access).
Buttons can be added after ExtraText is instantiated.
Creation of a ExtraText controller composition of the ExtraText widget.

Overview

Explanations

addRefreshItem=“true”:	Add a refresh button to retrieve previous value when changes had occured.
layoutData=“sg bottom“:	description ExtraText control and image imageViewer control have same size.
noLabel:	No label are affected to control description. By default, when a field control is linked to a model field (here property=“description”), a label control is automatically created.
