 Name

    XmTextFieldSetHighlight - a TextField function that highlights text

 Syntax


    #include <Xm/TextF.h>

    void XmTextFieldSetHighlight (widget, left, right, mode)
    Widget widget;
    XmTextPosition left;
    XmTextPosition right;
    XmHighlightMode mode;


 Description

    XmTextFieldSetHighlight highlights text between the two specified charac-
    ter positions. The mode parameter determines the type of highlighting.
    Highlighting text merely changes the visual appearance of the text; it
    does not set the selection.

    widget  Specifies the TextField widget ID.

    left    Specifies the position of the left boundary of text to be
            highlighted.  This is an integer number of characters from the
            beginning of the text buffer. The first character position is 0.

    right   Specifies the position of the right boundary of text to be
            highlighted.  This is an integer number of characters from the
            beginning of the text buffer. The first character position is 0.

    mode    Specifies the type of highlighting to be done. A value of
            XmHIGHLIGHTNORMAL removes highlighting. A value of
            XmHIGHLIGHTSELECTED highlights the test using reverse video. A
            value of XmHIGHLIGHTSECONDARYSELECTED highlights the text using
            underlining.
