Text Control 24.0 provides the following new features:
| Feature | Description | |
| Colored Paragraphs | A paragraph's background and the lines of a paragraph frame can be colored. The properties FrameColor and FrameLineColor can be used to get or to set such colors. The built-in dialog box for setting paragraph attributes, the TX TextControl file format and all text filters have been extended to support this feature. | |
| Zooming | Zooming has been extended with new zoom options. These options can be used to zoom the contents of a TextControl so that either the whole page, the complete width of a page or the complete text of a line becomes visible. They can be used with the new Zoom method. The TXStatusBar control has been extended with two new buttons to support this feature. | |
| Toolbars | The TXButtonBar and TXRulerBar can be set to read only now. When such a tool bar is set to read only, it still shows all formatting attributes of the connected TXTextControl, but formatting attributes cannot be changed. | |
| Built-in Dialogboxes | The ParagraphDialog, TableAttrDialog and ObjectAttrDialog methods have got now an optional parameter which can be used to specify the tab which is shown when the dialog box is opened. | |
| Text Fields | When a text field has a doubled input position at the beginning and at the end, each of these positions can be reached now with a mouse-click. |
