gtkTextBufferCreateMark: gtkTextBufferCreateMark
Description
Creates a mark at position where
. If mark.name
is NULL
, the mark
is anonymous; otherwise, the mark can be retrieved by name using
gtkTextBufferGetMark
. If a mark has left gravity, and text is
inserted at the mark's current location, the mark will be moved to
the left of the newly-inserted text. If the mark has right gravity
(left.gravity
= FALSE
), the mark will end up on the right of
newly-inserted text. The standard left-to-right cursor is a mark
with right gravity (when you type, the cursor stays on the right
side of the text you're typing).Usage
gtkTextBufferCreateMark(object, mark.name = NULL, where, left.gravity = FALSE)
Arguments
mark.name
name for mark, or NULL
. [ allow-none ] where
location to place mark
left.gravity
whether the mark has left gravity
Details
The caller of this function does not own a
reference to the returned GtkTextMark
, so you can ignore the
return value if you like.
Emits the "mark-set" signal as notification of the mark's initial
placement.
