Method

PangoAttrListsplice

Declaration [src]

void
pango_attr_list_splice (
  PangoAttrList* list,
  PangoAttrList* other,
  gint pos,
  gint len
)

Description [src]

This function opens up a hole in list, fills it in with attributes from the left, and then merges other on top of the hole.

This operation is equivalent to stretching every attribute that applies at position pos in list by an amount len, and then calling pango_attr_list_change() with a copy of each attribute in other in sequence (offset in position by pos).

This operation proves useful for, for instance, inserting a pre-edit string in the middle of an edit buffer.

Parameters

other

Type: PangoAttrList

Another PangoAttrList.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.
pos

Type: gint

The position in list at which to insert other.

len

Type: gint

The length of the spliced segment. (Note that this must be specified since the attributes in other may only be present at some subsection of this range).
