Hi!
I try to redefine default TextEditor and noticed that there is incorrect typings for TextEditingTool. You can compare documentation and release typings file. There are several properties(for example state) and methods(for example measureTemporaryTextBlock) that are not presented in typings.
Is it known issue?
Well, it’s now a known issue. Thanks for reporting the problem. For version 1.* the go.d.ts file is manually generated, and apparently we did not update the definition file to match the documentation. Sorry about that – we’ll fix it.
/**
* Gets or sets the predicate that determines whether or not a string of text is valid.
* If this is non-null, this predicate is called in addition to any TextBlock#textValidation predicate.
* See #isValidText for more details.
* The default predicate is null, which is equivalent to simply returning true.
*
* The function, if supplied, must not have any side-effects.
