Description

The control codes above are the characters found in the text of the TPlusMemo or TDBPlusMemo that controls selective text attributes in a static manner.  They act as toggles for a given attribute for the text following them.  Normally you don't have to embed yourself such control code attributes; you use instead methods SetAltFont, SetBold, SetHighlight, SetItalic and SetUnderline.

 

Those control codes are also inserted in the text when the user presses Ctrl-I, Ctrl-B, Ctrl-H, Ctrl-F or Ctrl-U keys combination, resulting in the corresponding attribute being given to the selected text, unless property EnableHotKeys is False.
