NAME [Toc] [Back]
XmTextSetSource - A Text function that sets the source of the widget
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
#include <Xm/Text.h>
void XmTextSetSource(
Widget widget,
XmTextSource source,
XmTextPosition top_character,
XmTextPosition cursor_position);
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
XmTextSetSource sets the source of the Text widget. Text widgets can
share sources of text so that editing in one widget is reflected in
another. This function sets the source of one widget so that it can
share the source of another widget.
Setting a new text source destroys the old text source if no other
Text widgets are using that source. To replace a text source but keep
it for later use, create an unmanaged Text widget and set its source
to the text source you want to keep.
widget Specifies the Text widget ID.
source Specifies the source with which the widget displays text.
This can be a value returned by the XmTextGetSource(3)
function. If no source is specified, the widget creates a
default string source.
top_character
Specifies the position in the text to display at the top of
the widget. This is an integer number of characters from
the beginning of the text buffer. The first character
position is 0 (zero).
cursor_position
Specifies the position in the text at which the insert
cursor is located. This is an integer number of characters
from the beginning of the text buffer. The first character
position is 0 (zero).
