Connect to MoveCursor signal.

Emitted when the user initiates a cursor movement.

If the cursor is not visible in self, this signal causes the viewport to be moved instead.

This is a keybinding signal.

Applications should not connect to it, but may emit it with [gobject.global.signalEmitByName] if they need to control the cursor programmatically.

The default bindings for this signal come in two variants, the variant with the <kbd>Shift</kbd> modifier extends the selection, the variant without it does not. There are too many key combinations to list them all here.

  • <kbd>←</kbd>, <kbd>→</kbd>, <kbd>↑</kbd>, <kbd>↓</kbd>

move by individual characters/lines

  • <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>←</kbd>, etc. move by words/paragraphs
  • <kbd>Home</kbd> and <kbd>End</kbd> move to the ends of the buffer

Parameters

callbacksignal callback delegate or function to connect void callback(gtk.types.MovementStep step, int count, bool extend, gtk.text.Text text) step the granularity of the move, as a [gtk.types.MovementStep] (optional) count the number of step units to move (optional) extend true if the move should extend the selection (optional) text the instance the signal is connected to (optional)
afterYes.After to execute callback after default handler, No.After to execute before (default)

Returns
