public class TextEditorConfigureFactory
extends EditorFactory
implements TextEditorFactory

If this class is contained by a actor, then double clicking on that actor will invoke a text editor that edits the value of a specified string attribute. The string attribute must be contained by the same container as this factory; its name is given by the attributeName attribute of this factory. The number of rows and columns displayed are given by the rowsDisplayed and columnsDisplayed parameters. The default is 80 columns and 40 rows.

This attribute is similar to TextEditorTableauFactory, except that it opens the text editor when the containing actor is configured (edit parameters), whereas TextEditorTableauFactory opens the text editor when the user looks inside.
