pangoLayoutXyToIndex {RGtk2}R Documentation

pangoLayoutXyToIndex

Description

Converts from X and Y position within a layout to the byte index to the character at that logical position. If the Y position is not inside the layout, the closest position is chosen (the position will be clamped inside the layout). If the X position is not within the layout, then the start or the end of the line is chosen as described for pangoLayoutXToIndex(). If either the X or Y positions were not inside the layout, then the function returns FALSE; on an exact hit, it returns TRUE.

Usage

pangoLayoutXyToIndex(object, x, y)

Arguments

object [PangoLayout] a PangoLayout
x [integer] the X offset (in integer) from the left edge of the layout.
y [integer] the Y offset (in integer) from the top edge of the layout

Value

A list containing the following elements:

retval [logical] TRUE if the coordinates were inside text, FALSE otherwise.
index [integer] location to store calculated byte index
trailing [integer] location to store a integer indicating where in the grapheme the user clicked. It will either be zero, or the number of characters in the grapheme. 0 represents the trailing edge of the grapheme.
