# compose-desktop

Anyone with any experience with https://github.com/Wavesonics/richtext-compose-multiplatform ? I've a question or two.

[geepawhill]

The library seems to work fine for ex-post-facto markup of already-entered text. That is, select some text, press an underline button, and it underlines that text. But it does not seem to have any concept of changing the style at the insertion point.

[geepawhill]

Normally, when editing in a rich text situation, if there's no selected span, that button indicates "going forward from the current insertion point, text will be underlined".

[geepawhill]

Am I just not getting something obvious? (That's certainly likely. 🙂 )

You can use this library if you want a rich text editor for compose multiplatform

Oh, hi Mohamed! I've definitely seen your rig, it seems to be the only other one out there. Does it have the property that the insertion point is inserted with a "current" styling?

Oh hey @mohamed rejeb, I've recently played around with your library and it's worked out really good, great job!

[mohamed rejeb]

@geepawhill Yes you can use richTextState.currentSpanStyle

[geepawhill]

Excellent news. I will give it a try this afternoon!

Grabbed a few free cycles this morning, installed your take on it, @mohamed rejeb, and it's working just as I hoped. Thank you!
