Feed edit object into show_quick_panel

#1

This not work:[code]import sublime, sublime_plugin

class examplCommand(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
def run(self, edit):
sublime.active_window().show_quick_panel(‘Y’, self._on_select)

def _on_select(self, idx):
    for sel in self.view.sel():
        self.view.insert(edit, sel.begin(), 'sample text')[/code]

I know that I need to feed edit object into _on_select(), I tried all the ways with _on_select(self, edit, idx); _on_select(self, idx, edit), still not work.?!

You changed indentation level of def _on_select(self, idx) ?
Sorry but not works for me.

Try this (untested but should work).

[code]import sublime, sublime_plugin

class examplCommand(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
def run(self, edit):
sublime.active_window().show_quick_panel(‘Y’, lambda idx: self._on_select(idx, edit))

def _on_select(self, idx, edit):
    for sel in self.view.sel():
        self.view.insert(edit, sel.begin(), 'sample text')

[/code]

Sorry, but still not work. (Quick panel shown up but self.view.insert(edit, sel.begin(), ‘sample text’) not do it job).
As far as I know, edit object is destroyed when quick_panel pop up, so the only way to initiate edit object is by calling TextCommand again

Sorry…I didn’t really look at what you were trying to but was trying to solve how to pass the parameter to the callback.

I had a similar problem in one of my plugins that I solved by using the following code:

    self.view.run_command('append', {'characters': message+'\n', 'force': True, 'scroll_to_end': True})

Maybe you could try something like this to insert the text?

    self.view.run_command('insert', {'characters': 'sample text'})

Have a look here for more info on the available commands: http://docs.sublimetext.info/en/latest/reference/commands.html
