Greetings again... Geeze I'm asking a lot today. ;) Back onto the GtkTextViews... After the wonderful responces from my query re: drawing a line across a text view, I now have a reasonably simple piece of code to do it automagically, except that it only supports one line per GtkTreeView at a time. So I've partially written a GObject to do it in a much more flexible fashion...
My plan MkI; create a GtkBufferThinRedLine, feeding it an iter anywhere on the line you want to mark, and viola! Instant thin red line. Next step was to make it a general solution for drawing lines across the page with variable colour, thickness, pattern, alignment within the line, etc... Kind of tooltip-ish in internal makeup... But, there's a little problem. I have to tie it to the GtkTextView, not to the GtkTextBuffer. It's not a big issue -- it's not too hard to add a "bind to view" command. But while we're talking about it, I don't suppose anyone knows of a "connected to GtkTextView"-style signal so I can make the connection automatic, do they? If anyone has any suggestions, let me know. Otherwise I'll just carry on as I'm going... :) Fredderic _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
