LineEdit

 

class LineEdit : public TextCtrl

A widget used to edit a line of a document one at a time.

 

 

Protected Method List

 

virtual void HighlightLine(int line, Vector<Highlight>& h, int pos)

This method can be overridden to add syntax highlighting to the LineEdit. It is called once for each line painted on the screen. line is the line index (first line is 0), h represents character cells in the line; client code should change this array to achieve the highlighting, pos is the index of character from the beginning of text. h initially contains one more space character than is the count of characters in the line; this additional character can be used to set the appearance of the rest of line after the last character. You also add more characters to the h. Default implementation is empty.

 


 

virtual void NewScrollPos()

Called when scrollbar gets new position. Default implementation is empty.

Event<> WhenScroll

Invoked when scrollbar gets new position.

 


 

Size GetFontSize() const

Returns the size of font character cell (LineEdit expects monospace glyphs -  the width of character is constant).

 


 

int GetGPos(int ln, int clconst

Returns "graphical" position of ln line and cl column. This takes into account any tabulator characters in the line.

 


 

int GetMousePos(Point pconst

Get the the offset of character placed at p.

 


 

Point GetColumnLine(int posconst

Returns the line and column for the character at pos accounting for any tabulators. Column is x member of resulting Point, line is y.

 


 

int GetColumnLinePos(Point posconst

Returns the position for given column and line pos. Does account for tabulators.

 


 

Point GetIndexLine(int posconst

Returns the line and index of character in the line for the given pos. Does not account for tabulators.

 


 

int GetIndexLinePos(Point posconst
