Highlighting text within a editor

Question

Hi,

I'm using .Net 9 with MAUI.

Highlighting text within a editor.

The highlight is not released.

Remains highlighted even after selecting other text.

<telerik:RadBorder Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column ="0"  BorderColor="{DynamicResource PrimaryColor}" BorderThickness="1" HorizontalOptions="Fill"  VerticalOptions="Fill" CornerRadius="5" Margin="10,5,10,10" >

<ScrollView  x:Name="scrollView" >

<Editor x:Name="editor"  AutoSize="TextChanges" IsSpellCheckEnabled="false" IsTextPredictionEnabled="false" Text="{Binding LogText, Mode=TwoWay}" 

   />

 </ScrollView>
</telerik:RadBorder>

Thanks,

Hello,

Yes, I can reproduce this issue. Please add following EditorHandler in your application, when SelectionChanged, update the Editor's background.

#if WINDOWS
        Microsoft.Maui.Handlers.EditorHandler.Mapper.AppendToMapping("SelectionChanged", (handler, view) =>
        {
            handler.PlatformView.SelectionChanged += 
            new Microsoft.UI.Xaml.RoutedEventHandler((object sender, Microsoft.UI.Xaml.RoutedEventArgs e) =>
            {
                handler.PlatformView.UpdateBackground(view);
            });
        });
#endif

This issue was fixed in the .NET 9 SR4
