Struct gtk::TextView

pub struct TextView(_, _);

You may wish to begin by reading the [text widget conceptual overview][TextWidget] which gives an overview of all the objects and data types related to the text widget and how they work together.

CSS nodes

textview.view
├── border.top
├── border.left
├── text
│   ╰── [selection]
├── border.right
├── border.bottom
╰── [window.popup]

TextView has a main css node with name textview and style class .view, and subnodes for each of the border windows, and the main text area, with names border and text, respectively. The border nodes each get one of the style classes .left, .right, .top or .bottom.

A node representing the selection will appear below the text node.

If a context menu is opened, the window node will appear as a subnode of the main node.

Implementations

impl TextView

pub fn new() -> TextView

Creates a new TextView. If you don’t call TextViewExt::set_buffer before using the text view, an empty default buffer will be created for you. Get the buffer with TextViewExt::get_buffer. If you want to specify your own buffer, consider TextView::new_with_buffer.

Returns

a new TextView

pub fn with_buffer<P: IsA<TextBuffer>>(buffer: &P) -> TextView

impl Ord for TextView

fn cmp(&self, other: &TextView) -> Ordering

This method returns an [Ordering] between self and other.

#[must_use]fn max(self, other: Self) -> Self

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.

#[must_use]fn min(self, other: Self) -> Self

Compares and returns the minimum of two values.

#[must_use]fn clamp(self, min: Self, max: Self) -> Self

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (clamp)

Restrict a value to a certain interval.

impl<T: ObjectType> PartialEq<T> for TextView

fn eq(&self, other: &T) -> bool

This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

#[must_use]fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

This method tests for !=.

impl<T: ObjectType> PartialOrd<T> for TextView

fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &T) -> Option<Ordering>

This method returns an ordering between self and other values if one exists.

#[must_use]fn lt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

This method tests less than (for self and other) and is used by the < operator.

#[must_use]fn le(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

This method tests less than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the <= operator.

#[must_use]fn gt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

This method tests greater than (for self and other) and is used by the > operator.

#[must_use]fn ge(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

impl StaticType for TextView

fn static_type() -> Type

Returns the type identifier of Self.
