TextModel arrows controls

Hello!

I stumbled on a strange problem, when was using TextModel widget.
The problem is that I can't control I-beam pointer with arrow keys inside of TextModel.
They just do not work. Maybe I have to set some methods?

Best,
Mark

No other methods are needed:

TextModel new text:'hello' ; openWithSpec

This opens a window with the text 'hello' and I can move the cursor with the
arrow keys (os: windows 7).

Can you give a minimal example that does not work for you.

Best,
Mark

You are right, it works.

I use TextModel as a base class for my own text model (need it for RewriteTool, which I'm implementing). Anyway I found where problem was.
