I have a question concerning how to set which part of a GtkTextBuffer is displayed when a GtkTextView is resized.
To explain the situation, consider this sample code: ----8<---- /* gcc -o tvtest tvtest.c `pkg-config --libs --cflags gtk+-2.0` */ #include <gtk/gtk.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { GtkWidget *window; GtkWidget *vpaned; GtkWidget *text1; GtkWidget *scr1; GtkTextBuffer *buffer; GtkWidget *text2; GtkWidget *scr2; gtk_init(&argc, &argv); window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL); gtk_widget_set_size_request(window, 500, 300); g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(window), "delete-event", G_CALLBACK(gtk_main_quit), NULL); vpaned = gtk_vpaned_new(); text1 = gtk_text_view_new(); buffer = gtk_text_view_get_buffer(GTK_TEXT_VIEW(text1)); gtk_text_buffer_set_text(buffer, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,\n" "consectetur adipisicing elit,\n" "sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt\n" "ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.\n" "Ut enim ad minim veniam,\n" "quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris\n" "nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.\n" "Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit\n" "in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore\n" "eu fugiat nulla pariatur.\n" "Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident,\n" "sunt in culpa qui officia\n" "deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.", -1); text2 = gtk_text_view_new_with_buffer(buffer); scr1 = gtk_scrolled_window_new(NULL, NULL); gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(scr1), text1); gtk_paned_add1(GTK_PANED(vpaned), scr1); scr2 = gtk_scrolled_window_new(NULL, NULL); gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(scr2), text2); gtk_paned_add2(GTK_PANED(vpaned), scr2); gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(window), vpaned); gtk_widget_show_all(window); gtk_main(); return 0; } ----8<---- When the division in the GtkPaned is moved, what happens is that the top of the GtkTextViews remains the same (thus keeps displaying the same thing), while the bottom part shrinks, hiding some text at the bottom if the widget gets smaller, or displaying more text at the bottom if it is enlarged. What I would like to do is the opposite: for the GtkTextView in the bottom, I'd like that the bottom of the widget remains the same, but changes in size are reflected at the top: if the widget shrinks, then less text at the top should be displayed, if it grows, then more text at the top should be displayed. The bottom should remain fixed displaying always the same part. Another way to visualize is that by changing the division in the GtkPaned it should cover more of the top of the bottom GtkTextView, instead of pushing it down. Does anyone have a solution for that? -- Money is truthful.
