struct PangoTabArray;
A PangoTabArray struct contains an array of tab stops. Each tab stop has an alignment and a position.
#define PANGO_TYPE_TAB_ARRAY (pango_tab_array_get_type ())
The GObject type for PangoTabArray.
typedef enum
{
PANGO_TAB_LEFT
/* These are not supported now, but may be in the
* future.
*
* PANGO_TAB_RIGHT,
* PANGO_TAB_CENTER,
* PANGO_TAB_NUMERIC
*/
} PangoTabAlign;
A PangoTabAlign specifies where a tab stop appears relative to the text.
| PANGO_TAB_LEFT | the tab stop appears to the left of the text. |
#define PANGO_TYPE_TAB_ALIGN (pango_tab_align_get_type())
The GObject type for PangoTabAlign.
PangoTabArray* pango_tab_array_new (gint initial_size, gboolean positions_in_pixels);
Creates an array of initial_size tab stops. Tab stops are specified in pixel units if positions_in_pixels is TRUE, otherwise in Pango units. All stops are initially at position 0.
| initial_size : | Initial number of tab stops to allocate, can be 0 |
| positions_in_pixels : | whether positions are in pixel units |
| Returns : | a PangoTabArray |
PangoTabArray* pango_tab_array_new_with_positions (gint size, gboolean positions_in_pixels, PangoTabAlign first_alignment, gint first_position, ...);
This is a convenience function that creates a PangoTabArray and allows you to specify the alignment and position of each tab stop. You must provide an alignment and position for size tab stops.
| size : | number of tab stops in the array |
| positions_in_pixels : | whether positions are in pixel units |
| first_alignment : | alignment of first tab stop |
| first_position : | position of first tab stop |
| ... : | additional alignment/position pairs |
| Returns : | a new PangoTabArray |
PangoTabArray* pango_tab_array_copy (PangoTabArray *src);
Copies a PangoTabArray
| src : | PangoTabArray to copy |
| Returns : | Newly-allocated PangoTabArray |
void pango_tab_array_free (PangoTabArray *tab_array);
Frees a tab array and associated resources.
| tab_array : | a PangoTabArray |
gint pango_tab_array_get_size (PangoTabArray *tab_array);
Gets the number of tab stops in tab_array.
| tab_array : | a PangoTabArray |
| Returns : | the number of tab stops in the array. |
void pango_tab_array_resize (PangoTabArray *tab_array, gint new_size);
Resizes a tab array. You must subsequently initialize any tabs that were added as a result of growing the array.
| tab_array : | a PangoTabArray |
| new_size : | new size of the array |
void pango_tab_array_set_tab (PangoTabArray *tab_array, gint tab_index, PangoTabAlign alignment, gint location);
Sets the alignment and location of a tab stop. alignment must always be PANGO_TAB_LEFT in the current implementation.
| tab_array : | a PangoTabArray |
| tab_index : | the index of a tab stop |
| alignment : | tab alignment |
| location : | tab location in pango units |
void pango_tab_array_get_tab (PangoTabArray *tab_array, gint tab_index, PangoTabAlign *alignment, gint *location);
Gets the alignment and position of a tab stop. alignment or location may be NULL if you aren't interested in their value.
| tab_array : | a PangoTabArray |
| tab_index : | tab stop index |
| alignment : | location to store alignment |
| location : | location to store tab position |
void pango_tab_array_get_tabs (PangoTabArray *tab_array, PangoTabAlign **alignments, gint **locations);
If non-NULL, alignments and locations are filled with allocated arrays of length pango_tab_array_get_size(). You must free the returned array.
| tab_array : | a PangoTabArray |
| alignments : | location to store an array of tab stop alignments |
| locations : | location to store an array of tab positions |
gboolean pango_tab_array_get_positions_in_pixels (PangoTabArray *tab_array);
Returns TRUE if the tab positions are in pixels, FALSE if they are in Pango units.
| tab_array : | a PangoTabArray |
| Returns : | whether positions are in pixels |
