Declaration [src]
GtkTextMark*
gtk_text_mark_new (
const char* name,
gboolean left_gravity
)
Description [src]
Creates a text mark.
Add it to a buffer using gtk_text_buffer_add_mark()
.
If name
is NULL
, the mark is anonymous; otherwise, the mark can be
retrieved by name using gtk_text_buffer_get_mark()
. 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).
