a bare version is :
tell application "TextEdit" to tell document 1 set leTexte to its text
set its text to (leTexte & "=azertyuiop=")
delay 0.1 set properties of its text to {font:"Menlo-Regular", size:11.0}
end tell
For most of the texts, all works well.
I just get a problem with large files. For instance, I have one text containing 141831 characters (including space ones) the script fails and the Events log display :
set properties of every text of document 1 to {font:"Menlo-Regular", size:11.0} --> error number -10000
After that I can't select something in the document's window and I am forced to quit TextEdit and reopen the document which happily is correctly saved.
Am’I doing something wrong or am’I facing a bug ?
It looks like you're facing a bug. It often gives me a TextEdit crash/continue dialog:
Exception Name: NSInternalInconsistencyException
Description: -[NSLayoutManager _fillGlyphHoleForCharacterRange:startGlyphIndex:desiredNumberOfCharacters:] *** attempted glyph generation while textStorage is editing. It is not valid to cause the layoutManager to do glyph generation while the textStorage is editing (ie the textStorage has been sent a beginEditing message without a matching endEditing.)
User Info: (null)
And I can see in Console entries like:
20/05/2014 10:13:22.696 am TextEdit[10164]: An exception was thrown during execution of an NSScriptCommand...
20/05/2014 10:13:22.696 am TextEdit[10164]: *** -[NSConcreteTextStorage attribute:atIndex:effectiveRange:]: Range or index out of bounds
20/05/2014 10:13:29.750 am TextEdit[10164]: -[NSLayoutManager _fillGlyphHoleForCharacterRange:startGlyphIndex:desiredNumberOfCharacters:] *** attempted glyph generation while textStorage is editing. It is not valid to cause the layoutManager to do glyph generation while the textStorage is editing (ie the textStorage has been sent a beginEditing message without a matching endEditing.)
Given that it's happening when you're trying to replace the contents of the document, and given that TextEdit pretty much relies on built-in support for this sort of scripting, there may well be the same problem in other apps. So you should definitely report it.
