"Block" parameter in TLMDCustomEditView SetSelection ?

The SetSelection method (and some related methods) appears to need a parameter referring to a "block" mode. I don't see this documented. I ~think~ I have the latest help file. This is for the LMD Syntax Editor current as of now (April 2012) installed in C++ Builder 2007. Can you tell me what it refers to? Thank you.

  • Block mode is an alternative selection mode. It supported in almost all code editors. For example, in Delphi source editor you can select some text using:
    1) MouseDown and Move.
    2) Shift + <ArrowKey>

    However, you can also use block mode using:
    1) Alt + (MouseDown and Move)
    2) Alt + Shift + <ArrowKey>

    This will select a rectangular text block. The same thing is implemented in LMD-SyntaxEdit.
