Typefed as Gtk::TextBuffer::iterator.
An iterator represents a position between two characters in the text buffer. Iterators are not valid indefinitely; whenever the buffer is modified in a way that affects the number of characters in the buffer, all outstanding iterators become invalid. (Note that deleting 5 characters and then reinserting 5 still invalidates iterators, though you end up with the same number of characters you pass through a state with a different number).
Because of this, iterators can't be used to preserve positions across buffer modifications. To preserve a position, the Gtk::TextBuffer::Mark object is ideal.
You can iterate over characters, words, lines, and sentences, but operator*() and operator++() deal only in characters.

bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_char | ( | ) |
Moves backward by one character offset.
Returns true
if movement was possible; if iter was the first in the buffer (character offset 0), backward_char() returns false
for convenience when writing loops.
bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_chars | ( | int | count | ) |
Moves count characters backward, if possible (if count would move past the start or end of the buffer, moves to the start or end of the buffer).
The return value indicates whether the iterator moved onto a dereferenceable position; if the iterator didn’t move, or moved onto the end iterator, then false
is returned. If count is 0, the function does nothing and returns false
.
count | Number of characters to move. |
bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_cursor_position | ( | ) |
Like forward_cursor_position(), but moves backward.
true
if we moved. bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_cursor_positions | ( | int | count | ) |
Moves up to count cursor positions.
See forward_cursor_position() for details.
count | Number of positions to move. |
true
if we moved and the new position is dereferenceable. bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_find_char | ( | const Predicate & | predicate | ) |
bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_find_char | ( | const Predicate & | predicate, |
const TextIter & | limit | ||
) |
bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_line | ( | ) |
Moves iter to the start of the previous line.
Returns true
if iter could be moved; i.e. if iter was at character offset 0, this function returns false
. Therefore if iter was already on line 0, but not at the start of the line, iter is snapped to the start of the line and the function returns true
. (Note that this implies that in a loop calling this function, the line number may not change on every iteration, if your first iteration is on line 0.)
bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_lines | ( | int | count | ) |
Moves count lines backward, if possible (if count would move past the start or end of the buffer, moves to the start or end of the buffer).
The return value indicates whether the iterator moved onto a dereferenceable position; if the iterator didn’t move, or moved onto the end iterator, then false
is returned. If count is 0, the function does nothing and returns false
. If count is negative, moves forward by 0 - count lines.
count | Number of lines to move backward. |
bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_search | ( | const Glib::ustring & | str, |
TextSearchFlags | flags, | ||
TextIter & | match_start, | ||
TextIter & | match_end | ||
) | const |

match_start | Return location for start of match. |
match_end | Return location for end of match. |
limit | Location of last possible match_start. |
bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_sentence_start | ( | ) |
Moves backward to the previous sentence start; if iter is already at the start of a sentence, moves backward to the next one.
Sentence boundaries are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango text boundary algorithms).
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_sentence_starts | ( | int | count | ) |
Calls backward_sentence_start() up to count times, or until it returns false
.
If count is negative, moves forward instead of backward.
count | Number of sentences to move. |
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_to_tag_toggle | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< TextTag > & | tag | ) |
Moves backward to the next toggle (on or off) of the Gtk::TextTag tag, or to the next toggle of any tag if tag is nullptr
.
If no matching tag toggles are found, returns false
, otherwise true
. Does not return toggles located at iter, only toggles before iter. Sets iter to the location of the toggle, or the start of the buffer if no toggle is found.
tag | A Gtk::TextTag, or nullptr . |
bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_visible_cursor_position | ( | ) |
Moves iter forward to the previous visible cursor position.
See backward_cursor_position() for details.
true
if we moved and the new position is dereferenceable. bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_visible_cursor_positions | ( | int | count | ) |
Moves up to count visible cursor positions.
See backward_cursor_position() for details.
count | Number of positions to move. |
true
if we moved and the new position is dereferenceable. bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_visible_line | ( | ) |
Moves iter to the start of the previous visible line.
Returns true
if iter could be moved; i.e. if iter was at character offset 0, this function returns false
. Therefore if iter was already on line 0, but not at the start of the line, iter is snapped to the start of the line and the function returns true
. (Note that this implies that in a loop calling this function, the line number may not change on every iteration, if your first iteration is on line 0.)
bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_visible_lines | ( | int | count | ) |
Moves count visible lines backward, if possible (if count would move past the start or end of the buffer, moves to the start or end of the buffer).
The return value indicates whether the iterator moved onto a dereferenceable position; if the iterator didn’t move, or moved onto the end iterator, then false
is returned. If count is 0, the function does nothing and returns false
. If count is negative, moves forward by 0 - count lines.
count | Number of lines to move backward. |
bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_visible_word_start | ( | ) |
Moves backward to the previous visible word start.
(If iter is currently on a word start, moves backward to the next one after that.) Word breaks are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango word break algorithms).
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_visible_word_starts | ( | int | count | ) |
Calls backward_visible_word_start() up to count times.
count | Number of times to move. |
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_word_start | ( | ) |
Moves backward to the previous word start.
(If iter is currently on a word start, moves backward to the next one after that.) Word breaks are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango word break algorithms).
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::backward_word_starts | ( | int | count | ) |
Calls backward_word_start() up to count times.
count | Number of times to move. |
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::begins_tag | ( | ) | const |
bool Gtk::TextIter::begins_tag | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< const TextTag > & | tag | ) | const |
Returns true
if tag is toggled on at exactly this point.
If tag is nullptr
, returns true
if any tag is toggled on at this point.
Note that if begins_tag() returns true
, it means that iter is at the beginning of the tagged range, and that the character at iter is inside the tagged range. In other words, unlike ends_tag(), if begins_tag() returns true
, has_tag() will also return true
for the same parameters.
Deprecated: 3.20: Use starts_tag() instead.
tag | A Gtk::TextTag, or nullptr . |
bool Gtk::TextIter::can_insert | ( | bool | default_editability = true | ) | const |
Considering the default editability of the buffer, and tags that affect editability, determines whether text inserted at iter would be editable.
If text inserted at iter would be editable then the user should be allowed to insert text at iter. Gtk::TextBuffer::insert_interactive() uses this function to decide whether insertions are allowed at a given position.
default_editability | true if text is editable by default. |
int Gtk::TextIter::compare | ( | const TextIter & | rhs | ) | const |
A qsort()-style function that returns negative if lhs is less than rhs, positive if lhs is greater than rhs, and 0 if they’re equal.
Ordering is in character offset order, i.e. the first character in the buffer is less than the second character in the buffer.
rhs | Another Gtk::TextIter. |
bool Gtk::TextIter::editable | ( | bool | default_setting = true | ) | const |
Returns whether the character at iter is within an editable region of text.
Non-editable text is “locked” and can’t be changed by the user via Gtk::TextView. This function is simply a convenience wrapper around get_attributes(). If no tags applied to this text affect editability, default_setting will be returned.
You don’t want to use this function to decide whether text can be inserted at iter, because for insertion you don’t want to know whether the char at iter is inside an editable range, you want to know whether a new character inserted at iter would be inside an editable range. Use can_insert() to handle this case.
default_setting | true if text is editable by default. |
bool Gtk::TextIter::ends_line | ( | ) | const |
Returns true
if iter points to the start of the paragraph delimiter characters for a line (delimiters will be either a newline, a carriage return, a carriage return followed by a newline, or a Unicode paragraph separator character).
Note that an iterator pointing to the \n of a \r\n pair will not be counted as the end of a line, the line ends before the \r. The end iterator is considered to be at the end of a line, even though there are no paragraph delimiter chars there.
bool Gtk::TextIter::ends_sentence | ( | ) | const |
Determines whether iter ends a sentence.
Sentence boundaries are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango text boundary algorithms).
true
if iter is at the end of a sentence. bool Gtk::TextIter::ends_tag | ( | ) | const |
bool Gtk::TextIter::ends_tag | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< const TextTag > & | tag | ) | const |
Returns true
if tag is toggled off at exactly this point.
If tag is nullptr
, returns true
if any tag is toggled off at this point.
Note that if ends_tag() returns true
, it means that iter is at the end of the tagged range, but that the character at iter is outside the tagged range. In other words, unlike starts_tag(), if ends_tag() returns true
, has_tag() will return false
for the same parameters.
tag | A Gtk::TextTag, or nullptr . |
bool Gtk::TextIter::ends_word | ( | ) | const |
Determines whether iter ends a natural-language word.
Word breaks are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango word break algorithms).
true
if iter is at the end of a word. bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_char | ( | ) |
Moves iter forward by one character offset.
Note that images embedded in the buffer occupy 1 character slot, so forward_char() may actually move onto an image instead of a character, if you have images in your buffer. If iter is the end iterator or one character before it, iter will now point at the end iterator, and forward_char() returns false
for convenience when writing loops.
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_chars | ( | int | count | ) |
Moves count characters if possible (if count would move past the start or end of the buffer, moves to the start or end of the buffer).
The return value indicates whether the new position of iter is different from its original position, and dereferenceable (the last iterator in the buffer is not dereferenceable). If count is 0, the function does nothing and returns false
.
count | Number of characters to move, may be negative. |
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_cursor_position | ( | ) |
Moves iter forward by a single cursor position.
Cursor positions are (unsurprisingly) positions where the cursor can appear. Perhaps surprisingly, there may not be a cursor position between all characters. The most common example for European languages would be a carriage return/newline sequence. For some Unicode characters, the equivalent of say the letter “a” with an accent mark will be represented as two characters, first the letter then a "combining mark" that causes the accent to be rendered; so the cursor can’t go between those two characters. See also the Pango::LogAttr-struct and pango_break() function.
true
if we moved and the new position is dereferenceable. bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_cursor_positions | ( | int | count | ) |
Moves up to count cursor positions.
See forward_cursor_position() for details.
count | Number of positions to move. |
true
if we moved and the new position is dereferenceable. bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_find_char | ( | const Predicate & | predicate | ) |
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_find_char | ( | const Predicate & | predicate, |
const TextIter & | limit | ||
) |
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_line | ( | ) |
Moves iter to the start of the next line.
If the iter is already on the last line of the buffer, moves the iter to the end of the current line. If after the operation, the iter is at the end of the buffer and not dereferencable, returns false
. Otherwise, returns true
.
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_lines | ( | int | count | ) |
Moves count lines forward, if possible (if count would move past the start or end of the buffer, moves to the start or end of the buffer).
The return value indicates whether the iterator moved onto a dereferenceable position; if the iterator didn’t move, or moved onto the end iterator, then false
is returned. If count is 0, the function does nothing and returns false
. If count is negative, moves backward by 0 - count lines.
count | Number of lines to move forward. |
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_search | ( | const Glib::ustring & | str, |
TextSearchFlags | flags, | ||
TextIter & | match_start, | ||
TextIter & | match_end | ||
) | const |
Same as forward_search(), but searchs to the end.
str | A search string. |
flags | Flags affecting how the search is done. |
match_start | Return location for start of match, or 0 . |
match_end | Return location for end of match, or 0 . |
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_search | ( | const Glib::ustring & | str, |
TextSearchFlags | flags, | ||
TextIter & | match_start, | ||
TextIter & | match_end, | ||
const TextIter & | limit | ||
) | const |
Searches forward for str.
Any match is returned by setting match_start to the first character of the match and match_end to the first character after the match. The search will not continue past limit. Note that a search is a linear or O(n) operation, so you may wish to use limit to avoid locking up your UI on large buffers.
If the Gtk::TEXT_SEARCH_VISIBLE_ONLY flag is present, the match may have invisible text interspersed in str. i.e. str will be a possibly-noncontiguous subsequence of the matched range. similarly, if you specify Gtk::TEXT_SEARCH_TEXT_ONLY, the match may have pixbufs or child widgets mixed inside the matched range. If these flags are not given, the match must be exact; the special 0xFFFC character in str will match embedded pixbufs or child widgets.
str | A search string. |
flags | Flags affecting how the search is done. |
match_start | Return location for start of match. |
match_end | Return location for end of match. |
limit | Bound for the search. |
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_sentence_end | ( | ) |
Moves forward to the next sentence end.
(If iter is at the end of a sentence, moves to the next end of sentence.) Sentence boundaries are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango text boundary algorithms).
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_sentence_ends | ( | int | count | ) |
Calls forward_sentence_end() count times (or until forward_sentence_end() returns false
).
If count is negative, moves backward instead of forward.
count | Number of sentences to move. |
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. void Gtk::TextIter::forward_to_end | ( | ) |
Moves iter forward to the “end iterator,” which points one past the last valid character in the buffer.
get_char() called on the end iterator returns 0, which is convenient for writing loops.
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_to_line_end | ( | ) |
Moves the iterator to point to the paragraph delimiter characters, which will be either a newline, a carriage return, a carriage return/newline in sequence, or the Unicode paragraph separator character.
If the iterator is already at the paragraph delimiter characters, moves to the paragraph delimiter characters for the next line. If iter is on the last line in the buffer, which does not end in paragraph delimiters, moves to the end iterator (end of the last line), and returns false
.
true
if we moved and the new location is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_to_tag_toggle | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< TextTag > & | tag | ) |
Moves forward to the next toggle (on or off) of the Gtk::TextTag tag, or to the next toggle of any tag if tag is nullptr
.
If no matching tag toggles are found, returns false
, otherwise true
. Does not return toggles located at iter, only toggles after iter. Sets iter to the location of the toggle, or to the end of the buffer if no toggle is found.
tag | A Gtk::TextTag, or nullptr . |
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_visible_cursor_position | ( | ) |
Moves iter forward to the next visible cursor position.
See forward_cursor_position() for details.
true
if we moved and the new position is dereferenceable. bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_visible_cursor_positions | ( | int | count | ) |
Moves up to count visible cursor positions.
See forward_cursor_position() for details.
count | Number of positions to move. |
true
if we moved and the new position is dereferenceable. bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_visible_line | ( | ) |
Moves iter to the start of the next visible line.
Returns true
if there was a next line to move to, and false
if iter was simply moved to the end of the buffer and is now not dereferenceable, or if iter was already at the end of the buffer.
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_visible_line | ( | int | count | ) |
Moves count visible lines forward, if possible (if count would move past the start or end of the buffer, moves to the start or end of the buffer).
The return value indicates whether the iterator moved onto a dereferenceable position; if the iterator didn’t move, or moved onto the end iterator, then false
is returned. If count is 0, the function does nothing and returns false
. If count is negative, moves backward by 0 - count lines.
count | Number of lines to move forward. |
bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_visible_word_end | ( | ) |
Moves forward to the next visible word end.
(If iter is currently on a word end, moves forward to the next one after that.) Word breaks are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango word break algorithms).
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_visible_word_ends | ( | int | count | ) |
Calls forward_visible_word_end() up to count times.
count | Number of times to move. |
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_word_end | ( | ) |
Moves forward to the next word end.
(If iter is currently on a word end, moves forward to the next one after that.) Word breaks are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango word break algorithms).
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::forward_word_ends | ( | int | count | ) |
Calls forward_word_end() up to count times.
count | Number of times to move. |
true
if iter moved and is not the end iterator. bool Gtk::TextIter::get_attributes | ( | TextAttributes & | values | ) | const |
Glib::RefPtr< TextBuffer > Gtk::TextIter::get_buffer | ( | ) | const |
Returns the Gtk::TextBuffer this iterator is associated with.
int Gtk::TextIter::get_bytes_in_line | ( | ) | const |
Returns the number of bytes in the line containing iter, including the paragraph delimiters.
gunichar Gtk::TextIter::get_char | ( | ) | const |
The Unicode character at this iterator is returned.
(Equivalent to operator* on a C++ iterator.) If the element at this iterator is a non-character element, such as an image embedded in the buffer, the Unicode “unknown” character 0xFFFC is returned. If invoked on the end iterator, zero is returned; zero is not a valid Unicode character. So you can write a loop which ends when get_char() returns 0.
int Gtk::TextIter::get_chars_in_line | ( | ) | const |
Returns the number of characters in the line containing iter, including the paragraph delimiters.
Glib::RefPtr< TextChildAnchor > Gtk::TextIter::get_child_anchor | ( | ) |
If the location at iter contains a child anchor, the anchor is returned (with no new reference count added).
Otherwise, nullptr
is returned.
Glib::RefPtr< const TextChildAnchor > Gtk::TextIter::get_child_anchor | ( | ) | const |
If the location at iter contains a child anchor, the anchor is returned (with no new reference count added).
Otherwise, nullptr
is returned.
Pango::Language Gtk::TextIter::get_language | ( | ) | const |
A convenience wrapper around get_attributes(), which returns the language in effect at iter.
If no tags affecting language apply to iter, the return value is identical to that of gtk_get_default_language().
int Gtk::TextIter::get_line | ( | ) | const |
Returns the line number containing the iterator.
Lines in a Gtk::TextBuffer are numbered beginning with 0 for the first line in the buffer.
int Gtk::TextIter::get_line_index | ( | ) | const |
Returns the byte index of the iterator, counting from the start of a newline-terminated line.
Remember that Gtk::TextBuffer encodes text in UTF-8, and that characters can require a variable number of bytes to represent.
int Gtk::TextIter::get_line_offset | ( | ) | const |
Returns the character offset of the iterator, counting from the start of a newline-terminated line.
The first character on the line has offset 0.
std::vector< Glib::RefPtr< TextMark > > Gtk::TextIter::get_marks | ( | ) |
Returns a list of all Gtk::TextMark at this location.
Because marks are not iterable (they don’t take up any "space" in the buffer, they are just marks in between iterable locations), multiple marks can exist in the same place. The returned list is not in any meaningful order.
std::vector< Glib::RefPtr< const TextMark > > Gtk::TextIter::get_marks | ( | ) | const |
Returns a list of all Gtk::TextMark at this location.
Because marks are not iterable (they don’t take up any "space" in the buffer, they are just marks in between iterable locations), multiple marks can exist in the same place. The returned list is not in any meaningful order.
int Gtk::TextIter::get_offset | ( | ) | const |
Returns the character offset of an iterator.
Each character in a Gtk::TextBuffer has an offset, starting with 0 for the first character in the buffer. Use Gtk::TextBuffer::get_iter_at_offset() to convert an offset back into an iterator.
Glib::RefPtr< Gdk::Pixbuf > Gtk::TextIter::get_pixbuf | ( | ) | const |
If the element at iter is a pixbuf, the pixbuf is returned (with no new reference count added).
Otherwise, nullptr
is returned.
Glib::ustring Gtk::TextIter::get_slice | ( | const TextIter & | end | ) | const |
Returns the text in the given range.
A “slice” is an array of characters encoded in UTF-8 format, including the Unicode “unknown” character 0xFFFC for iterable non-character elements in the buffer, such as images. Because images are encoded in the slice, byte and character offsets in the returned array will correspond to byte offsets in the text buffer. Note that 0xFFFC can occur in normal text as well, so it is not a reliable indicator that a pixbuf or widget is in the buffer.
end | Iterator at end of a range. |
std::vector< Glib::RefPtr< TextTag > > Gtk::TextIter::get_tags | ( | ) |
Returns a list of tags that apply to iter, in ascending order of priority (highest-priority tags are last).
std::vector< Glib::RefPtr< const TextTag > > Gtk::TextIter::get_tags | ( | ) | const |
Returns a list of tags that apply to iter, in ascending order of priority (highest-priority tags are last).
Glib::ustring Gtk::TextIter::get_text | ( | const TextIter & | end | ) | const |
Returns text in the given range.
If the range contains non-text elements such as images, the character and byte offsets in the returned string will not correspond to character and byte offsets in the buffer. If you want offsets to correspond, see get_slice().
end | Iterator at end of a range. |
std::vector< Glib::RefPtr< TextTag > > Gtk::TextIter::get_toggled_tags | ( | bool | toggled_on = true | ) |
Returns a list of Gtk::TextTag that are toggled on or off at this point.
(If toggled_on is true
, the list contains tags that are toggled on.) If a tag is toggled on at iter, then some non-empty range of characters following iter has that tag applied to it. If a tag is toggled off, then some non-empty range following iter does not have the tag applied to it.
toggled_on | true to get toggled-on tags. |
std::vector< Glib::RefPtr< const TextTag > > Gtk::TextIter::get_toggled_tags | ( | bool | toggled_on = true | ) | const |
Returns a list of Gtk::TextTag that are toggled on or off at this point.
(If toggled_on is true
, the list contains tags that are toggled on.) If a tag is toggled on at iter, then some non-empty range of characters following iter has that tag applied to it. If a tag is toggled off, then some non-empty range following iter does not have the tag applied to it.
toggled_on | true to get toggled-on tags. |

int Gtk::TextIter::get_visible_line_index | ( | ) | const |
Returns the number of bytes from the start of the line to the given iter, not counting bytes that are invisible due to tags with the “invisible” flag toggled on.
int Gtk::TextIter::get_visible_line_offset | ( | ) | const |
Returns the offset in characters from the start of the line to the given iter, not counting characters that are invisible due to tags with the “invisible” flag toggled on.
Glib::ustring Gtk::TextIter::get_visible_slice | ( | const TextIter & | end | ) | const |
Like get_slice(), but invisible text is not included.
Invisible text is usually invisible because a Gtk::TextTag with the “invisible” attribute turned on has been applied to it.
end | Iterator at end of range. |
Glib::ustring Gtk::TextIter::get_visible_text | ( | const TextIter & | end | ) | const |
Like get_text(), but invisible text is not included.
Invisible text is usually invisible because a Gtk::TextTag with the “invisible” attribute turned on has been applied to it.
end | Iterator at end of range. |

bool Gtk::TextIter::has_tag | ( | ) | const |
bool Gtk::TextIter::has_tag | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< const TextTag > & | tag | ) | const |
Returns true
if iter points to a character that is part of a range tagged with tag.
See also starts_tag() and ends_tag().
tag | A Gtk::TextTag. |
Checks whether iter falls in the range [ start, end).
start and end must be in ascending order.
start | Start of range. |
end | End of range. |
true
if iter is in the range. bool Gtk::TextIter::inside_sentence | ( | ) | const |
Determines whether iter is inside a sentence (as opposed to in between two sentences, e.g. after a period and before the first letter of the next sentence).
Sentence boundaries are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango text boundary algorithms).
true
if iter is inside a sentence. bool Gtk::TextIter::inside_word | ( | ) | const |
Determines whether the character pointed by iter is part of a natural-language word (as opposed to say inside some whitespace).
Word breaks are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango word break algorithms).
Note that if starts_word() returns true
, then this function returns true
too, since iter points to the first character of the word.
true
if iter is inside a word. bool Gtk::TextIter::is_cursor_position | ( | ) | const |
See forward_cursor_position() or Pango::LogAttr or pango_break() for details on what a cursor position is.
true
if the cursor can be placed at iter. bool Gtk::TextIter::is_end | ( | ) | const |
Returns true
if iter is the end iterator, i.e. one past the last dereferenceable iterator in the buffer.
is_end() is the most efficient way to check whether an iterator is the end iterator.
bool Gtk::TextIter::is_start | ( | ) | const |
Returns true
if iter is the first iterator in the buffer, that is if iter has a character offset of 0.

void Gtk::TextIter::order | ( | TextIter & | second | ) |
Swaps the value of first and second if second comes before first in the buffer.
That is, ensures that first and second are in sequence. Most text buffer functions that take a range call this automatically on your behalf, so there’s no real reason to call it yourself in those cases. There are some exceptions, such as in_range(), that expect a pre-sorted range.
second | Another Gtk::TextIter. |
void Gtk::TextIter::set_line | ( | int | line_number | ) |
Moves iterator iter to the start of the line line_number.
If line_number is negative or larger than the number of lines in the buffer, moves iter to the start of the last line in the buffer.
line_number | Line number (counted from 0). |
void Gtk::TextIter::set_line_index | ( | int | byte_on_line | ) |
Same as set_line_offset(), but works with a byte index.
The given byte index must be at the start of a character, it can’t be in the middle of a UTF-8 encoded character.
byte_on_line | A byte index relative to the start of iter’s current line. |
void Gtk::TextIter::set_line_offset | ( | int | char_on_line | ) |
Moves iter within a line, to a new character (not byte) offset.
The given character offset must be less than or equal to the number of characters in the line; if equal, iter moves to the start of the next line. See set_line_index() if you have a byte index rather than a character offset.
char_on_line | A character offset relative to the start of iter’s current line. |
void Gtk::TextIter::set_offset | ( | int | char_offset | ) |
Sets iter to point to char_offset.
char_offset counts from the start of the entire text buffer, starting with 0.
char_offset | A character number. |
void Gtk::TextIter::set_visible_line_index | ( | int | byte_on_line | ) |
Like set_line_index(), but the index is in visible bytes, i.e. text with a tag making it invisible is not counted in the index.
byte_on_line | A byte index. |
void Gtk::TextIter::set_visible_line_offset | ( | int | char_on_line | ) |
Like set_line_offset(), but the offset is in visible characters, i.e. text with a tag making it invisible is not counted in the offset.
char_on_line | A character offset. |
bool Gtk::TextIter::starts_line | ( | ) | const |
Returns true
if iter begins a paragraph, i.e. if get_line_offset() would return 0.
However this function is potentially more efficient than get_line_offset() because it doesn’t have to compute the offset, it just has to see whether it’s 0.
bool Gtk::TextIter::starts_sentence | ( | ) | const |
Determines whether iter begins a sentence.
Sentence boundaries are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango text boundary algorithms).
true
if iter is at the start of a sentence. bool Gtk::TextIter::starts_tag | ( | ) | const |
bool Gtk::TextIter::starts_tag | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< const TextTag > & | tag | ) | const |
Returns true
if tag is toggled on at exactly this point.
If tag is nullptr
, returns true
if any tag is toggled on at this point.
Note that if starts_tag() returns true
, it means that iter is at the beginning of the tagged range, and that the character at iter is inside the tagged range. In other words, unlike ends_tag(), if starts_tag() returns true
, has_tag() will also return true
for the same parameters.
tag | A Gtk::TextTag, or nullptr . |
bool Gtk::TextIter::starts_word | ( | ) | const |
Determines whether iter begins a natural-language word.
Word breaks are determined by Pango and should be correct for nearly any language (if not, the correct fix would be to the Pango word break algorithms).
true
if iter is at the start of a word. bool Gtk::TextIter::toggles_tag | ( | ) | const |
bool Gtk::TextIter::toggles_tag | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< const TextTag > & | tag | ) | const |
This is equivalent to (starts_tag() || ends_tag()), i.e. it tells you whether a range with tag applied to it begins or ends at iter.
tag | A Gtk::TextTag, or nullptr . |
