NAME

6       XmTextReplace — A Text function that replaces part of a text string
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <Xm/Text.h>
10       void XmTextReplace(
11       Widget widget,
12       XmTextPosition from_pos,
13       XmTextPosition to_pos,
14       char * value);

DESCRIPTION

17       XmTextReplace  replaces part of the text string in the Text widget. The
18       character positions begin at 0 (zero)  and  are  numbered  sequentially
19       from the beginning of the text.
20
21       An  example  text  replacement would be to replace the second and third
22       characters in the  text  string.  To  accomplish  this,  the  parameter
23       from_pos  must  be 1 and to_pos must be 3. To insert a string after the
24       fourth character, both parameters, from_pos and to_pos, must be 4.
25
26       This routine calls the widget's XmNvalueChangedCallback  and  verifica‐
27       tion  callbacks, either XmNmodifyVerifyCallback or XmNmodifyVerifyCall‐
28       backWcs, or both. If both verification callback lists  are  registered,
29       the  procedures  of the XmNmodifyVerifyCallback list are executed first
30       and the resulting data  is  passed  to  the  XmNmodifyVerifyCallbackWcs
31       callbacks.   The XmNmotionVerifyCallback is generated if to_pos is less
32       than or equal to the cursor position and the length of value is not the
33       same  as  the length of the text being replaced, or if the cursor posi‐
34       tion is between from_pos and to_pos, and the distance from  the  cursor
35       position to from_pos is greater than the length of value.
36
