Module xi_core_lib::selection

Data structures representing (multiple) selections and cursors.

Structs

SelRegion	A type representing a single contiguous region of a selection. We use the term "caret" (sometimes also "cursor", more loosely) to refer to a selection region with an empty interior. A "non-caret region" is one with a non-empty interior (i.e. start != end).
Selection	A set of zero or more selection regions, representing a selection state.

Enums

Affinity	The "affinity" of a cursor which is sitting exactly on a line break.
InsertDrift	Indicates if an edit should try to drift inside or outside nearby selections. If the selection is zero width, that is, it is a caret, this value will be ignored, the equivalent of the Default value.

Type Definitions

HorizPos

A type representing horizontal measurements. This is currently in units that are not very well defined except that ASCII characters count as 1 each. It will change.
