TextMark.this
this
(string name, bool leftGravity)Creates a text mark.
Add it to a buffer using [gtk.text_buffer.TextBuffer.addMark]. If name is null, the mark is anonymous; otherwise, the mark can be retrieved by name using [gtk.text_buffer.TextBuffer.getMark]. If a mark has left gravity, and text is inserted at the mark’s current location, the mark will be moved to the left of the newly-inserted text. If the mark has right gravity (left_gravity = false), the mark will end up on the right of newly-inserted text. The standard left-to-right cursor is a mark with right gravity (when you type, the cursor stays on the right side of the text you’re typing).
Parameters
name | mark name |
leftGravity | whether the mark should have left gravity |
Returns
new [gtk.text_mark.TextMark]
