Description
Value retrieves (get) and replaces (set) a line of text in an edit object. Defintion of a line differs based on whether the edit object is active (in the focus tree) or not.
When an edit object is active, a line of text corresponds to the line that you see in the visual text window. Getting the value returns the text. Setting the value replaces the current line with passed text.
When an edit object is not active, a line of text corresponds to a paragraph (all characters up to the end of line marker). Getting the value returns the entire paragraph. Setting the value replaces the paragraph number with the new value.
