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.



Thanks Shane

Now I am even more puzzled.

Before asking here I looked in the Console and didn't got the relevant messages which you reproduce.

I just saw MANY messages like :
19/05/2014 22:07:46,000 kernel[0]: TextEdit[25398] Unable to quarantine: 93

and some others like :
19/05/2014 22:18:33,331 TextEdit[25398]: view service marshal for <NSRemoteView: 0x7fadb78834d0> failed to forget accessibility connection due to Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "Impossible de communiquer avec un utilitaire." (The connection was invalidated from this process.) UserInfo=0x7fadb3e713e0 {NSDebugDescription=The connection was invalidated from this process.}
timestamp: 22:18:33.331 Monday 19 May 2014
process/thread/queue: TextEdit (25398) / 0x10cc9a000 / com.apple.NSXPCConnection.user.endpoint
code: line 2972 of /SourceCache/ViewBridge/ViewBridge-46.2/NSRemoteView.m in __57-[NSRemoteView viewServiceMarshalProxy:withErrorHandler:]_block_invoke
domain: communications-failure
 
which doesn't seem to be related to what I face.

I will clean the crash reports and make a new attempt to be check if the crash and the message are related.
