<div class="textblock"><p>Typedefed as <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1TextBuffer.html#ae8dd977bbf98a58d400f880ed30a946e">Gtk::TextBuffer::Mark</a>. </p>
<p>A position in the buffer, preserved across buffer modifications.</p>
<p>A Mark is like a bookmark in a text buffer; it preserves a position in the text. Unlike iterators, marks remain valid across buffer mutations, because their behavior is defined when text is inserted or deleted. When text containing a mark is deleted, the mark remains in the position originally occupied by the deleted text. When text is inserted at a mark, a mark with left gravity will be moved to the beginning of the newly-inserted text, and a mark with right gravity will be moved to the end. The standard text cursor in left-to-right languages is a mark with right gravity, because it stays to the right of inserted text.</p>
<p>Like tags, marks can be either named or anonymous. There are two marks built-in to <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1TextBuffer.html" title="Multi-line attributed text that can be displayed by one or more Gtk::TextView widgets.">Gtk::TextBuffer</a>; these are named "insert" and "selection_bound" and refer to the insertion point and the boundary of the selection which is not the insertion point, respectively. If no text is selected, these two marks will be in the same position. You can manipulate what is selected and where the cursor appears by moving these marks around.</p>
<p>"left" and "right" here refer to logical direction (left is the toward the start of the buffer); in some languages such as Hebrew the logically-leftmost text is not actually on the left when displayed.</p>
<p>You can convert the mark to an <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1TextIter.html">iterator</a> using <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1TextBuffer.html#a331fadf0c7c6c470b709802fbc09984a" title="Get the current position of a mark.">Gtk::TextBuffer::get_iter_at_mark()</a>.</p>
<p>Marks can be deleted from the buffer at any time with <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1TextBuffer.html#a1582cb666cbe6c857f6f742557e19295" title="Deletes mark, so that it's no longer located anywhere in the buffer.">Gtk::TextBuffer::delete_mark()</a>. Once deleted from the buffer, a mark is essentially useless.</p>
<p>Marks optionally have names; these can be convenient to avoid passing the <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1TextBuffer.html#ae8dd977bbf98a58d400f880ed30a946e">Gtk::TextBuffer::Mark</a> object around.</p>
<p>Marks are typically created using the <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1TextBuffer.html#aa355a0cc0a3c1d7f7f9ded9cc157feb5" title="Creates a mark at position where.">Gtk::TextBuffer::create_mark()</a> function. </p>
