Sets whether a Clutter::Text actor should be activatable.

An activatable Clutter::Text actor will emit the Clutter::Text::activate signal whenever the 'Enter' (or 'Return') key is pressed; if it is not activatable, a new line will be appended to the current content.

An activatable Clutter::Text must also be set as editable using set_editable().

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | color | A Clutter::Color.

void Clutter::Text::set_cursor_color | ( | const Color& | color | ) |

  | mode | A Pango::EllipsizeMode.

void Clutter::Text::set_font_description | ( | const Pango::FontDescription & | font_desc | ) |

Parameters:

  | font_desc | A Pango::FontDescription.

void Clutter::Text::set_font_name | ( | const Glib::ustring & | font_name | ) |

Sets the font used by a Clutter::Text.

|[ clutter_text_set_font_name (text, "Sans 10pt"); clutter_text_set_font_name (text, "Serif 16px"); clutter_text_set_font_name (text, "Helvetica 10"); ]|

Parameters:

  | justify | Whether the text should be justified.

void Clutter::Text::set_line_alignment | ( | Pango::Alignment | alignment | ) |

Sets the way that the lines of a wrapped label are aligned with respect to each other.

To align a Clutter::Text actor you should add it to a container that supports alignment, or use the anchor point.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | alignment | A Pango::Alignment.

void Clutter::Text::set_line_wrap | ( | bool | line_wrap = `true` | ) |

Sets whether the contents of a Clutter::Text actor should wrap, if they don't fit the size assigned to the actor.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | line_wrap | Whether the contents should wrap.

void Clutter::Text::set_line_wrap_mode | ( | Pango::WrapMode | wrap_mode | ) |

If line wrapping is enabled (see set_line_wrap()) this function controls how the line wrapping is performed.

The default is Pango::WRAP_WORD which means wrap on word boundaries.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | wrap_mode | The line wrapping mode.

void Clutter::Text::set_markup | ( | const Glib::ustring & | markup | ) |

Sets markup as the contents of a Clutter::Text.

This is a convenience function for setting a string containing Pango markup, and it is logically equivalent to:

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | markup | A string containing Pango markup. Passing `0` is the same as passing "" (the empty string).

void Clutter::Text::set_max_length | ( | int | max_length | ) |

Sets the maximum allowed length of the contents of the actor.

If the current contents are longer than the given length, then they will be truncated to fit.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | max | The maximum number of characters allowed in the text actor; 0 to disable or -1 to set the length of the current string.

void Clutter::Text::set_password_char | ( | gunichar | wc | ) |

Sets the character to use in place of the actual text in a password text actor.

If wc is 0 the text will be displayed as it is entered in the Clutter::Text actor.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | wc | A Unicode character, or 0 to unset the password character.

void Clutter::Text::set_preedit_string | ( | const Glib::ustring & | preedit_str,
|  | const Pango::AttrList & | preedit_attrs,
|  | guint | ursor_pos |
| ) |  |  |

Sets, or unsets, the pre-edit string.

This function is useful for input methods to display a string (with eventual specific Pango attributes) before it is entered inside the Clutter::Text buffer.

The preedit string and attributes are ignored if the Clutter::Text actor is not editable.

This function should not be used by applications

Since cluttermm 1.2:

Parameters:

  | preedit_str | The pre-edit string, or `0` to unset it.
  | preedit_attrs | The pre-edit string attributes.
  | cursor_pos | The cursor position for the pre-edit string.

void Clutter::Text::set_selectable | ( | bool | selectable = `true` | ) |

Sets whether a Clutter::Text actor should be selectable.

A selectable Clutter::Text will allow selecting its contents using the pointer or the keyboard.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | selectable | Whether the Clutter::Text actor should be selectable.

void Clutter::Text::set_selection | ( | gssize | start_pos,
|  | gssize | end_pos |
| ) |  |  |

Selects the region of text between start_pos and end_pos.

This function changes the position of the cursor to match start_pos and the selection bound to match end_pos.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | start_pos | Start of the selection, in characters.
  | end_pos | End of the selection, in characters.

void Clutter::Text::set_selection_bound | ( | int | selection_bound | ) |

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | selection_bound | The position of the end of the selection, in characters.

void Clutter::Text::set_selection_color | ( | const Color& | color | ) |

Sets the color of the selection of a Clutter::Text actor.

If color is `0`, the selection color will be the same as the cursor color, or if no cursor color is set either then it will be the same as the text color.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | color | The color of the selection, or `0` to unset it.

void Clutter::Text::set_single_line_mode | ( | bool | single_line = `true` | ) |

Sets whether a Clutter::Text actor should be in single line mode or not.

A text actor in single line mode will not wrap text and will clip the the visible area to the predefined size. The contents of the text actor will scroll to display the end of the text if its length is bigger than the allocated width.

When setting the single line mode the Clutter::Text:activatable property is also set as a side effect. Instead of entering a new line character, the text actor will emit the Clutter::Text::activate signal.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | single_line | Whether to enable single line mode.

void Clutter::Text::set_text | ( | const Glib::ustring & | text | ) |

Sets the contents of a Clutter::Text actor.

If the Clutter::Text:use-markup property was set to `true` it will be reset to `false` as a side effect. If you want to maintain the Clutter::Text:use-markup you should use the set_markup() function instead

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | text | The text to set. Passing `0` is the same as passing "" (the empty string).

void Clutter::Text::set_use_markup | ( | bool | setting = `true` | ) |

Sets whether the contents of the Clutter::Text actor contains markup in .

Setting Clutter::Text:use-markup on an editable Clutter::Text will make the actor discard any markup.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | setting | `true` if the text should be parsed for markup.
