Insert at caret position with a Silverlight textbox

Question

In WPF you can insert at the caret position using the CaretIndex property. However this seems to be missing in the Silverlight textbox control.

Is it possible using a different technique?

Answer 1

I also had the same problem. I used the SelectionStart property.

    private void QuotePrefixTextboxTextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        var tb = (TextBox)sender;
        var caret = tb.SelectionStart;
        tb.Text = tb.Text.ToUpper();
        tb.SelectionStart = caret; 
    }

Answer 2

Try:-

 myTextBox.Select(position, 0);
 myTextBox.SelectedText = "Content to insert";
