insert_range


Description:

public void insert_range (ref TextIter iter, TextIter start, TextIter end)

Copies text, tags, and pixbufs between start and end (the order of start and end doesn’t matter) and inserts the copy at iter.

Used instead of simply getting/inserting text because it preserves images and tags. If start and end are in a different buffer from this, the two buffers must share the same tag table.

Implemented via emissions of the insert_text and apply_tag signals, so expect those.

Parameters:

this

a TextBuffer

iter

a position in this

start

a position in a TextBuffer

end

another position in the same buffer as start
