Declaration

property StartStopKeys: TExtStartStopList;

Description

This property is a TStartStopList descendant that contains the start-stop keys and their attributes defined by a TExtHighlighter component.  The start-stop sections defined in it will be highlighted when encountered inside a TPlusMemo that is linked to this extended highlighter, when scoping rules are met (see TExtHighlighter topic for explanation of scoping rules).

It is possible to define start-stop keys at design time by double clicking on the StartStopKeys property in the Object Inspector.  A keywords editor will appear where start-stop keys and their attributes can be defined.

If you change start-stop key definitions at run time, call TPlusMemo.ReApplyKeywords for the change to take effect immediately.  Otherwise, only subsequent editing operations will take account of the new start-stop key definitions.
