hello everyone,

i have a question about selected text in a input field.  
i want to be able to change selected parts of text within a textfield.  
i’ve messed around with onsetFocus and similer ones, it didn’t work.

a example:

i have a textfield with a title and some text. i want to make the title bold by using a button and selecting the text.

I hope that someone can help me.

thanx :thumb:.
