TextArea - getSelectedText() ?

[anush_tv]

We are building an application that uses textarea (SmartGWT widget) at many places - and the requirements is to grab the text selected by the user in the text area and use it for processing. I tried both TextAreaItem and RichTextArea widgets, but could not do it programmatically.

We didnt want to mix up the GWT and SmartGWT widgets as it created issues - Can someone help to do this from the code?

If you're desperate, check the source code for TextItem.js - there are internal APIs that you could call via JSNI for now. A real solution is to become a customer and ask for officially supported APIs to be added.
