Method

GtkTextset_visibility

Declaration [src]

void
gtk_text_set_visibility (
  GtkText* self,
  gboolean visible
)

Description [src]

Sets whether the contents of the text widget are visible or not.

When visibility is set to false, characters are displayed as the invisible char, and it will also appear that way when the text in the widget is copied to the clipboard.

By default, GTK picks the best invisible character available in the current font, but it can be changed with gtk_text_set_invisible_char().

Note that you probably want to set GtkText:input-purpose to GTK_INPUT_PURPOSE_PASSWORD or GTK_INPUT_PURPOSE_PIN to inform input methods about the purpose of this widget, in addition to setting visibility to false.

Sets propertyGtk.Text:visibility

Parameters

visible

Type: gboolean

True if the contents of the text widget are displayed as plain text.
