TextMark


Description:

[ CCode ( has_construct_function = false ) ]
[ Version ( since = "2.12" ) ]
public TextMark (string? name, bool left_gravity = false)

Creates a text mark.

Add it to a buffer using add_mark. If name is null, the mark is anonymous; otherwise, the mark can be retrieved by name using 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).

Parameters:

name

mark name or null

left_gravity

whether the mark should have left gravity

Returns:

new TextMark
