DtEditorGoToLine - move the insert cursor for a DtEditor widget to a
specified line
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include <Dt/Editor.h>
void DtEditorGoToLine(
Widget widget,
int lineNumber);
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The DtEditorGoToLine function moves the insert cursor for the DtEditor
widget to the beginning of the line specified by the lineNumber
argument. The cursor can be moved to the last line by specifying
DtEDITOR_LAST_LINE as the line number. If the line is not currently
on-screen, the contents for the DtEditor widget are scrolled to
display the new insertion position.
The lineNumber argument is the number of the line in the file,
counting from 1. If the lineNumber argument is less than 1, the
insert cursor is placed at the beginning of the first line. If the
argument is greater than the total number of lines, the cursor is
placed at the last line of text.
The insert cursor can be moved to a specific character position with
DtEditorSetInsertionPosition(3). The DtNtopCharacter resource can be
used to control which line is displayed at the top of the DtEditor
widget.
The widget argument specifies the DtEditor widget ID.
The lineNumber argument specifies the line number within the DtEditor
widget.
For a complete definition of the DtEditor widget and its associated
resources, see DtEditor(3).
