Member Function Documentation

void Gtk::TextView::add_child_at_anchor ( Widget child,
const Glib::RefPtr< TextBuffer::ChildAnchor >&  anchor 
)

Adds a child widget in the text buffer, at the given anchor.

Parameters
childA Gtk::Widget.
anchorA Gtk::TextChildAnchor in the Gtk::TextBuffer for text_view.
void Gtk::TextView::add_child_in_window ( Widget child,
TextWindowType  which_window,
int  xpos,
int  ypos 
)

Adds a child at fixed coordinates in one of the text widget's windows.

The window must have nonzero size (see set_border_window_size()). Note that the child coordinates are given relative to the Gdk::Window in question, and that these coordinates have no sane relationship to scrolling. When placing a child in Gtk::TEXT_WINDOW_WIDGET, scrolling is irrelevant, the child floats above all scrollable areas. But when placing a child in one of the scrollable windows (border windows or text window), you'll need to compute the child's correct position in buffer coordinates any time scrolling occurs or buffer changes occur, and then call move_child() to update the child's position. Unfortunately there's no good way to detect that scrolling has occurred, using the current API; a possible hack would be to update all child positions when the scroll adjustments change or the text buffer changes. See bug 64518 on bugzilla.gnome.org for status of fixing this issue.

Parameters
childA Gtk::Widget.
which_windowWhich window the child should appear in.
xposX position of child in window coordinates.
yposY position of child in window coordinates.
bool Gtk::TextView::backward_display_line ( TextBuffer::iterator iter)

Moves the given iter backward by one display (wrapped) line.

A display line is different from a paragraph. Paragraphs are separated by newlines or other paragraph separator characters. Display lines are created by line-wrapping a paragraph. If wrapping is turned off, display lines and paragraphs will be the same. Display lines are divided differently for each view, since they depend on the view's width; paragraphs are the same in all views, since they depend on the contents of the Gtk::TextBuffer.

Parameters
iterA Gtk::TextIter.
Returns
true if iter was moved and is not on the end iterator.
bool Gtk::TextView::backward_display_line_start ( TextBuffer::iterator iter)

Moves the given iter backward to the next display line start.

A display line is different from a paragraph. Paragraphs are separated by newlines or other paragraph separator characters. Display lines are created by line-wrapping a paragraph. If wrapping is turned off, display lines and paragraphs will be the same. Display lines are divided differently for each view, since they depend on the view's width; paragraphs are the same in all views, since they depend on the contents of the Gtk::TextBuffer.

Parameters
iterA Gtk::TextIter.
Returns
true if iter was moved and is not on the end iterator.
void Gtk::TextView::buffer_to_window_coords ( TextWindowType  win,
int  buffer_x,
int  buffer_y,
int &  window_x,
int &  window_y 
) const

Converts coordinate ( buffer_x, buffer_y) to coordinates for the window win, and stores the result in ( window_x, window_y).

Note that you can't convert coordinates for a nonexisting window (see set_border_window_size()).

Parameters
winA Gtk::TextWindowType except Gtk::TEXT_WINDOW_PRIVATE.
buffer_xBuffer x coordinate.
buffer_yBuffer y coordinate.
window_xWindow x coordinate return location or nullptr.
window_yWindow y coordinate return location or nullptr.
bool Gtk::TextView::forward_display_line ( TextBuffer::iterator iter)

Moves the given iter forward by one display (wrapped) line.

A display line is different from a paragraph. Paragraphs are separated by newlines or other paragraph separator characters. Display lines are created by line-wrapping a paragraph. If wrapping is turned off, display lines and paragraphs will be the same. Display lines are divided differently for each view, since they depend on the view's width; paragraphs are the same in all views, since they depend on the contents of the Gtk::TextBuffer.

Parameters
iterA Gtk::TextIter.
Returns
true if iter was moved and is not on the end iterator.
bool Gtk::TextView::forward_display_line_end ( TextBuffer::iterator iter)

Moves the given iter forward to the next display line end.

A display line is different from a paragraph. Paragraphs are separated by newlines or other paragraph separator characters. Display lines are created by line-wrapping a paragraph. If wrapping is turned off, display lines and paragraphs will be the same. Display lines are divided differently for each view, since they depend on the view's width; paragraphs are the same in all views, since they depend on the contents of the Gtk::TextBuffer.

Parameters
iterA Gtk::TextIter.
Returns
true if iter was moved and is not on the end iterator.
bool Gtk::TextView::get_accepts_tab ( ) const

Returns whether pressing the Tab key inserts a tab characters.

set_accepts_tab().

Since gtkmm 2.4:
Returns
true if pressing the Tab key inserts a tab character, false if pressing the Tab key moves the keyboard focus.
int Gtk::TextView::get_border_window_size ( TextWindowType  type) const

Gets the width of the specified border window.

See set_border_window_size().

Parameters
typeWindow to return size from.
Returns
Width of window.
Glib::RefPtr<TextBuffer> Gtk::TextView::get_buffer ( )

Returns the Gtk::TextBuffer being displayed by this text view.

The reference count on the buffer is not incremented; the caller of this function won't own a new reference.

Returns
A Gtk::TextBuffer.
Glib::RefPtr<const TextBuffer> Gtk::TextView::get_buffer ( ) const

Returns the Gtk::TextBuffer being displayed by this text view.

The reference count on the buffer is not incremented; the caller of this function won't own a new reference.

Returns
A Gtk::TextBuffer.
bool Gtk::TextView::get_cursor_visible ( ) const

Find out whether the cursor is being displayed.

Returns
Whether the insertion mark is visible.
TextAttributes Gtk::TextView::get_default_attributes ( ) const

Obtains a copy of the default text attributes.

These are the attributes used for text unless a tag overrides them. You'd typically pass the default attributes in to Gtk::TextIter::get_attributes() in order to get the attributes in effect at a given text position.

Returns
A new Gtk::TextAttributes.
bool Gtk::TextView::get_editable ( ) const

Returns the default editability of the Gtk::TextView.

Tags in the buffer may override this setting for some ranges of text.

Returns
Whether text is editable by default.
Gtk::Adjustment* Gtk::TextView::get_hadjustment ( )

Gets the horizontal-scrolling Gtk::Adjustment.

Since gtkmm 2.22:
Returns
Pointer to the horizontal Gtk::Adjustment.
const Gtk::Adjustment* Gtk::TextView::get_hadjustment ( ) const

Gets the horizontal-scrolling Gtk::Adjustment.

Since gtkmm 2.22:
Returns
Pointer to the horizontal Gtk::Adjustment.
int Gtk::TextView::get_indent ( ) const

Gets the default indentation of paragraphs in text_view.

Tags in the view's buffer may override the default. The indentation may be negative.

Returns
Number of pixels of indentation.
void Gtk::TextView::get_iter_at_location ( TextBuffer::iterator iter,
int  x,
int  y 
) const

Retrieves the iterator at buffer coordinates x and y.

Buffer coordinates are coordinates for the entire buffer, not just the currently-displayed portion. If you have coordinates from an event, you have to convert those to buffer coordinates with window_to_buffer_coords().

Parameters
iterA Gtk::TextIter.
xX position, in buffer coordinates.
yY position, in buffer coordinates.
void Gtk::TextView::get_iter_at_position ( TextBuffer::iterator iter,
int &  trailing,
int  x,
int  y 
) const

Retrieves the iterator pointing to the character at buffer coordinates x and y.

Buffer coordinates are coordinates for the entire buffer, not just the currently-displayed portion. If you have coordinates from an event, you have to convert those to buffer coordinates with window_to_buffer_coords().

Note that this is different from get_iter_at_location(), which returns cursor locations, i.e. positions between characters.

Since gtkmm 2.6:
Parameters
iterA Gtk::TextIter.
trailingIf non-nullptr, location to store an integer indicating where in the grapheme the user clicked. It will either be zero, or the number of characters in the grapheme. 0 represents the trailing edge of the grapheme.
xX position, in buffer coordinates.
yY position, in buffer coordinates.
void Gtk::TextView::get_iter_location ( const TextBuffer::iterator iter,
Gdk::Rectangle location 
) const

Gets a rectangle which roughly contains the character at iter.

Parameters
iterA Gtk::TextIter.
locationBounds of the character at iter.
Justification Gtk::TextView::get_justification ( ) const

Gets the default justification of paragraphs in text_view.

Tags in the buffer may override the default.

Returns
Default justification.
int Gtk::TextView::get_left_margin ( ) const

Gets the default left margin size of paragraphs in the text_view.

Tags in the buffer may override the default.

void Gtk::TextView::scroll_mark_onscreen ( const Glib::RefPtr< TextBuffer::Mark >&  mark)
bool Gtk::TextView::scroll_to ( TextBuffer::iterator iter,
double  within_margin = 0 
)

Scrolls the TextView so that iter is on the screen, by scrolling the minimal distance to get the mark onscreen, possibly not scrolling at all.

The effective screen for purposes of this function is reduced by a margin of size within_margin.

Note
This function uses the currently-computed height of the lines in the text buffer. Note that line heights are computed in an idle handler; so this function may not have the desired effect if it's called before the height computations. To avoid oddness, consider using gtk_text_view_scroll_to_mark() which saves a point to be scrolled to after line validation.
Parameters
iterAn iterator pointing to the position that should be made visible by scrolling.
within_marginmargin as a [0.0,0.5] fraction of screen size.
Returns
true if scrolling occurred.

)

Scrolls the TextView so that iter is on the screen, in the position indicated by xalign and yalign, possibly not scrolling at all.

The effective screen for purposes of this function is reduced by a margin of size within_margin.

Note
This function uses the currently-computed height of the lines in the text buffer. Note that line heights are computed in an idle handler; so this function may not have the desired effect if it's called before the height computations.
