Description

You may wish to begin by reading the text widget conceptual overview which gives an overview of all the objects and data types related to the text widget and how they work together.

Tags should be in the GtkTextTagTable for a given GtkTextBuffer before using them with that buffer.

gtk_text_buffer_create_tag() is the best way to create tags. See gtk-demo for numerous examples.

The "invisible" property was not implemented for GTK+ 2.0; it's planned to be implemented in future releases.

Details

struct GtkTextTag

struct GtkTextTag;


enum GtkWrapMode

typedef enum
{
  GTK_WRAP_NONE,
  GTK_WRAP_CHAR,
  GTK_WRAP_WORD
} GtkWrapMode;

Describes a type of line wrapping.

GTK_WRAP_NONEdo not wrap lines; just make the text area wider
GTK_WRAP_CHARwrap text, breaking lines anywhere the cursor can appear (between characters, usually - if you want to be technical, between graphemes, see pango_get_log_attrs())
GTK_WRAP_WORDwrap text, breaking lines in between words

struct GtkTextAttributes

struct GtkTextAttributes {

  GtkTextAppearance appearance;

  GtkJustification justification;
  GtkTextDirection direction;

  /* Individual chunks of this can be set/unset as a group */
  PangoFontDescription *font;

  gdouble font_scale;
  
  gint left_margin;

  gint indent;  

  gint right_margin;

  gint pixels_above_lines;

  gint pixels_below_lines;

  gint pixels_inside_wrap;

  PangoTabArray *tabs;

  GtkWrapMode wrap_mode;        /* How to handle wrap-around for this tag.
                                 * Must be GTK_WRAPMODE_CHAR,
                                 * GTK_WRAPMODE_NONE, GTK_WRAPMODE_WORD
                                 */

  PangoLanguage *language;

  /* hide the text  */
  guint invisible : 1;

  /* Background is fit to full line height rather than
   * baseline +/- ascent/descent (font height)
   */
  guint bg_full_height : 1;

  /* can edit this text */
  guint editable : 1;

  /* colors are allocated etc. */
  guint realized : 1;

};

Using GtkTextAttributes directly should rarely be necessary. It's primarily useful with gtk_text_iter_get_attributes(). As with most GTK+ structs, the fields in this struct should only be read, never modified directly.

gtk_text_tag_new ()

GtkTextTag* gtk_text_tag_new                (const gchar *name);

Creates a GtkTextTag. Configure the tag using object arguments, i.e. using g_object_set().

name : tag name, or NULL
Returns : a new GtkTextTag

gtk_text_tag_get_priority ()

gint        gtk_text_tag_get_priority       (GtkTextTag *tag);

Get the tag priority.

tag : a GtkTextTag
Returns : The tag's priority.

gtk_text_tag_set_priority ()

void        gtk_text_tag_set_priority       (GtkTextTag *tag,
                                             gint priority);

Sets the priority of a GtkTextTag. Valid priorities are start at 0 and go to one less than gtk_text_tag_table_get_size(). Each tag in a table has a unique priority; setting the priority of one tag shifts the priorities of all the other tags in the table to maintain a unique priority for each tag. Higher priority tags "win" if two tags both set the same text attribute. When adding a tag to a tag table, it will be assigned the highest priority in the table by default; so normally the precedence of a set of tags is the order in which they were added to the table, or created with gtk_text_buffer_create_tag(), which adds the tag to the buffer's table automatically.

tag : a GtkTextTag
priority : the new priority

gtk_text_tag_event ()

gboolean    gtk_text_tag_event              (GtkTextTag *tag,
                                             GObject *event_object,
                                             GdkEvent *event,
                                             const GtkTextIter *iter);

Emits the "event" signal on the GtkTextTag.

tag : a GtkTextTag
event_object : object that received the event, such as a widget
event : the event
iter : location where the event was received
Returns : result of signal emission (whether the event was handled)

struct GtkTextAppearance

struct GtkTextAppearance {

  GdkColor bg_color;
  GdkColor fg_color;
  GdkBitmap *bg_stipple;
  GdkBitmap *fg_stipple;

  /* super/subscript rise, can be negative */
  gint rise;

  guint underline : 4;          /* PangoUnderline */
  guint strikethrough : 1;

  /* Whether to use background-related values; this is irrelevant for
   * the values struct when in a tag, but is used for the composite
   * values struct; it's true if any of the tags being composited
   * had background stuff set.
   */
  guint draw_bg : 1;
  
  /* These are only used when we are actually laying out and rendering
   * a paragraph; not when a GtkTextAppearance is part of a
   * GtkTextAttributes.
   */
  guint inside_selection : 1;
  guint is_text : 1;

};


gtk_text_attributes_new ()

GtkTextAttributes* gtk_text_attributes_new  (void);

Creates a GtkTextAttributes, which describes a set of properties on some text.

Returns : a new GtkTextAttributes

gtk_text_attributes_copy ()

GtkTextAttributes* gtk_text_attributes_copy (GtkTextAttributes *src);

Copies src and returns a new GtkTextAttributes.

src : a GtkTextAttributes to be copied
Returns : a copy of src

gtk_text_attributes_copy_values ()

void        gtk_text_attributes_copy_values (GtkTextAttributes *src,
                                             GtkTextAttributes *dest);

Copies the values from src to dest so that dest has the same values as src. Frees existing values in dest.

src : a GtkTextAttributes
dest : another GtkTextAttributes

gtk_text_attributes_unref ()

void        gtk_text_attributes_unref       (GtkTextAttributes *values);

Decrements the reference count on values, freeing the structure if the reference count reaches 0.

values : a GtkTextAttributes

gtk_text_attributes_ref ()

void        gtk_text_attributes_ref         (GtkTextAttributes *values);

Increments the reference count on values.

values : a GtkTextAttributes
