GI.Gtk.Objects.TextView

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

CSS nodes

plain code

textview.view
├── border.top
├── border.left
├── text
│   ╰── [selection]
├── border.right
├── border.bottom
╰── [window.popup]

GtkTextView has a main css node with name textview and style class .view, and subnodes for each of the border windows, and the main text area, with names border and text, respectively. The border nodes each get one of the style classes .left, .right, .top or .bottom.

A node representing the selection will appear below the text node.

If a context menu is opened, the window node will appear as a subnode of the main node.

addChildAtAnchor

textViewAddChildAtAnchor

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a, IsWidget b, IsTextChildAnchor c)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> b

child: a Widget

-> c

anchor: a TextChildAnchor in the TextBuffer for textView

-> m ()

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

addChildInWindow

textViewAddChildInWindow

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a, IsWidget b)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> b

child: a Widget

-> TextWindowType

whichWindow: which window the child should appear in

-> Int32

xpos: X position of child in window coordinates

-> Int32

ypos: Y position of child in window coordinates

-> m ()

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

The window must have nonzero size (see textViewSetBorderWindowSize). Note that the child coordinates are given relative 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) it will move with the scrolling as needed.

backwardDisplayLine

textViewBackwardDisplayLine

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> TextIter

iter: a TextIter

-> m Bool

Returns: True if iter was moved and is not on the end iterator

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 TextBuffer.

backwardDisplayLineStart

textViewBackwardDisplayLineStart

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> TextIter

iter: a TextIter

-> m Bool

Returns: True if iter was moved and is not on the end iterator

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 TextBuffer.

bufferToWindowCoords

textViewBufferToWindowCoords

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> TextWindowType

win: a TextWindowType, except TextWindowTypePrivate

-> Int32

bufferX: buffer x coordinate

-> Int32

bufferY: buffer y coordinate

-> m (Int32, Int32)

Converts coordinate (bufferX, bufferY) to coordinates for the window win, and stores the result in (windowX, windowY).

Note that you can’t convert coordinates for a nonexisting window (see textViewSetBorderWindowSize).

forwardDisplayLine

textViewForwardDisplayLine

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> TextIter

iter: a TextIter

-> m Bool

Returns: True if iter was moved and is not on the end iterator

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 TextBuffer.

forwardDisplayLineEnd

textViewForwardDisplayLineEnd

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> TextIter

iter: a TextIter

-> m Bool

Returns: True if iter was moved and is not on the end iterator

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 TextBuffer.

getAcceptsTab

textViewGetAcceptsTab

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: A TextView

textViewGetBottomMargin

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> m Int32

Returns: bottom margin in pixels

Since: 3.18

getBuffer

textViewGetBuffer

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> m TextBuffer

Returns: a TextBuffer

Returns the 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.

getCursorLocations

textViewGetCursorLocations

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> Maybe TextIter

iter: a TextIter

-> m (Rectangle, Rectangle)

Given an iter within a text layout, determine the positions of the strong and weak cursors if the insertion point is at that iterator. The position of each cursor is stored as a zero-width rectangle. The strong cursor location is the location where characters of the directionality equal to the base direction of the paragraph are inserted. The weak cursor location is the location where characters of the directionality opposite to the base direction of the paragraph are inserted.

If iter is Nothing, the actual cursor position is used.

Note that if iter happens to be the actual cursor position, and there is currently an IM preedit sequence being entered, the returned locations will be adjusted to account for the preedit cursor’s offset within the preedit sequence.

The rectangle position is in buffer coordinates; use textViewBufferToWindowCoords to convert these coordinates to coordinates for one of the windows in the text view.

Since: 3.0

getCursorVisible

textViewGetCursorVisible

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

getDefaultAttributes

textViewGetDefaultAttributes

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> m TextAttributes

Returns: a new TextAttributes

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 textIterGetAttributes in order to get the attributes in effect at a given text position.

The return value is a copy owned by the caller of this function, and should be freed with textAttributesUnref.

getEditable

textViewGetEditable

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> m Bool

Returns: whether text is editable by default

Returns the default editability of the TextView. Tags in the buffer may override this setting for some ranges of text.

x: x position, in buffer coordinates

-> Int32

y: y position, in buffer coordinates

-> m (Bool, TextIter)

Returns: True if the position is over text

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 textViewWindowToBufferCoords.

getIterAtPosition

textViewGetIterAtPosition

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> TextWindowType

win: window to get

-> m (Maybe Window)

Returns: a Window, or Nothing

Retrieves the Window corresponding to an area of the text view; possible windows include the overall widget window, child windows on the left, right, top, bottom, and the window that displays the text buffer. Windows are Nothing and nonexistent if their width or height is 0, and are nonexistent before the widget has been realized.

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> b

window: a window type

-> m TextWindowType

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> EventKey

event: the key event

-> m Bool

Returns: True if the input method handled the key event.

Allow the TextView input method to internally handle key press and release events. If this function returns True, then no further processing should be done for this key event. See iMContextFilterKeypress.

Note that you are expected to call this function from your handler when overriding key event handling. This is needed in the case when you need to insert your own key handling between the input method and the default key event handling of the TextView.

C code

static gboolean
gtk_foo_bar_key_press_event (GtkWidget   *widget,
                             GdkEventKey *event)
{

  gdk_event_get_keyval ((GdkEvent*)event, &keyval);

  if (keyval == GDK_KEY_Return || keyval == GDK_KEY_KP_Enter)
    {
      if (gtk_text_view_im_context_filter_keypress (GTK_TEXT_VIEW (widget), event))
        return TRUE;
    }

  // Do some stuff

  return GTK_WIDGET_CLASS (gtk_foo_bar_parent_class)->key_press_event (widget, event);
}

Since: 2.22

moveChild

textViewMoveVisually

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> TextIter

iter: a TextIter

-> Int32

count: number of characters to move (negative moves left, positive moves right)

-> m Bool

Returns: True if iter moved and is not on the end iterator

Move the iterator a given number of characters visually, treating it as the strong cursor position. If count is positive, then the new strong cursor position will be count positions to the right of the old cursor position. If count is negative then the new strong cursor position will be count positions to the left of the old cursor position.

In the presence of bi-directional text, the correspondence between logical and visual order will depend on the direction of the current run, and there may be jumps when the cursor is moved off of the end of a run.

new

textViewNew

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m)

=> m TextView

Returns: a new TextView

Creates a new TextView. If you don’t call textViewSetBuffer before using the text view, an empty default buffer will be created for you. Get the buffer with textViewGetBuffer. If you want to specify your own buffer, consider textViewNewWithBuffer.

newWithBuffer

textViewNewWithBuffer

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextBuffer a)

=> a

buffer: a TextBuffer

-> m TextView

Returns: a new TextView.

Creates a new TextView widget displaying the buffer buffer. One buffer can be shared among many widgets. buffer may be Nothing to create a default buffer, in which case this function is equivalent to textViewNew. The text view adds its own reference count to the buffer; it does not take over an existing reference.

placeCursorOnscreen

textViewPlaceCursorOnscreen

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> m Bool

Returns: True if the cursor had to be moved.

Moves the cursor to the currently visible region of the buffer, it it isn’t there already.

resetCursorBlink

textViewResetCursorBlink

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> m ()

Ensures that the cursor is shown (i.e. not in an 'off' blink interval) and resets the time that it will stay blinking (or visible, in case blinking is disabled).

This function should be called in response to user input (e.g. from derived classes that override the textview's keyPressEvent handler).

Since: 3.20

resetImContext

textViewResetImContext

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> m ()

Reset the input method context of the text view if needed.

This can be necessary in the case where modifying the buffer would confuse on-going input method behavior.

Since: 2.22

scrollMarkOnscreen

textViewScrollMarkOnscreen

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a, IsTextMark b)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> b

mark: a mark in the buffer for textView

-> m ()

Scrolls textView the minimum distance such that mark is contained within the visible area of the widget.

scrollToIter

textViewScrollToIter

Arguments

yalign: vertical alignment of mark within visible area

-> m Bool

Returns: True if scrolling occurred

Scrolls textView so that iter is on the screen in the position indicated by xalign and yalign. An alignment of 0.0 indicates left or top, 1.0 indicates right or bottom, 0.5 means center. If useAlign is False, the text scrolls 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 withinMargin.

Note that this function uses the currently-computed height of the lines in the text buffer. 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 textViewScrollToMark which saves a point to be scrolled to after line validation.

scrollToMark

textViewScrollToMark

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a, IsTextMark b)

=> a

textView: a TextView

-> b

mark: a TextMark

-> m ()

Scrolls textView so that mark is on the screen in the position indicated by xalign and yalign. An alignment of 0.0 indicates left or top, 1.0 indicates right or bottom, 0.5 means center. If useAlign is False, the text scrolls 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 withinMargin.

setAcceptsTab

textViewSetAcceptsTab

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m, IsTextView a)

=> a

textView: A TextView
