Multiple TextBlock editor types

GoJS
1

I have a couple of node types and every node should have multiple text block types. for example, 1 normal text block and another text block should be a dropdown list. based on these articles we can have
custom text editor but this code change all of the text blocks:

because we set the default text editor to our custom editor

   myDiagram = $(go.Diagram, "myDiagramDiv",  // must identify the DIV
        {
          // default text editor is now a SelectBox
          "textEditingTool.defaultTextEditor": window.TextEditorSelectBox, // defined in textEditorSelectBox.js
          "undoManager.isEnabled": true
        });

so my question is how can I set custom editor to a specific text block only?

Set or bind TextBlock.textEditor

Doesn’t Work for me

     $(go.TextBlock, "----",
                    { textEditor = customTextEditor() }, new go.Binding("choices"))

customTextEditor function return a HTMLInfo element

I have this error: Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid shorthand property initializer
and in api documentation has a notice: As of 2.0 setting, this to an HTML Element is no longer supported.

What’s your customTextEditor function?

I used this extension
extensions/TextEditorSelectBox.js
And extracted to my own function.

I see now that you have a syntax error. You should be using a colon, not equals sign.

$(go.TextBlock, "----",
  { textEditor: customTextEditor() },
  new go.Binding("choices")
