## wxRichTextCtrl

wxRichTextCtrl provides a generic, ground-up implementation of a text control capable of showing multiple styles and images.

wxRichTextCtrl sends notification events: see wxRichTextEvent. It also sends the standard wxTextCtrl events wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_ENTER and wxEVT_COMMAND_TEXT_UPDATED, and wxTextUrlEvent when URL content is clicked.

For more information, see the wxRichTextCtrl overview.

### wxRichTextCtrl::wxRichTextCtrl

wxRichTextCtrl()

wxRichTextCtrl(wxWindow* parent, wxWindowID id = wxID_ANY, const wxString& value = wxEmptyString, const wxPoint& pos = wxDefaultPosition, const wxSize& size = wxDefaultSize, long style = wxRE_MULTILINE, const wxValidator& validator = wxDefaultValidator, const wxString& name = wxTextCtrlNameStr)

Constructors.

### wxRichTextCtrl::~wxRichTextCtrl

~wxRichTextCtrl()

Destructor.

### wxRichTextCtrl::AddImage

wxRichTextRange AddImage(const wxImage& image)

Adds an image to the control's buffer.

### wxRichTextCtrl::AddParagraph

wxRichTextRange AddParagraph(const wxString& text)

Adds a new paragraph of text to the end of the buffer.

### wxRichTextCtrl::AppendText

void AppendText(const wxString& text)

Sets the insertion point to the end of the buffer and writes the text.

### wxRichTextCtrl::ApplyAlignmentToSelection

bool ApplyAlignmentToSelection(wxTextAttrAlignment alignment)

Applies the given alignment to the selection (undoable).

For alignment values, see wxTextAttrEx.

### wxRichTextCtrl::ApplyBoldToSelection

bool ApplyBoldToSelection()

Apples bold to the selection (undoable).

### wxRichTextCtrl::ApplyItalicToSelection

bool ApplyItalicToSelection()

Applies italic to the selection (undoable).

### wxRichTextCtrl::ApplyStyle

bool ApplyStyle(wxRichTextStyleDefinition* def)

Applies the given style to the selection.

### wxRichTextCtrl::ApplyStyleSheet

bool ApplyStyleSheet(wxRichTextStyleSheet* sheet = NULL)

Applies the style sheet to the buffer, matching paragraph styles in the sheet against named styles in the buffer. This might be useful if the styles have changed. If sheet is NULL, the sheet set with SetStyleSheet is used.

Currently this applies paragraph styles only.

### wxRichTextCtrl::ApplyUnderlineToSelection

bool ApplyUnderlineToSelection()

Applies underline to the selection (undoable).

### wxRichTextCtrl::BatchingUndo

bool BatchingUndo() const

Returns `true` if undo commands are being batched.

### wxRichTextCtrl::BeginAlignment

bool BeginAlignment(wxTextAttrAlignment alignment)

Begins using alignment

For alignment values, see wxTextAttrEx.

### wxRichTextCtrl::BeginBatchUndo

bool BeginBatchUndo(const wxString& cmdName)

Starts batching undo history for commands.

### wxRichTextCtrl::BeginBold

bool BeginBold()

Begins using bold.

### wxRichTextCtrl::BeginCharacterStyle

bool BeginCharacterStyle(const wxString& characterStyle)

Begins using the named character style.

### wxRichTextCtrl::BeginFont

bool BeginFont(const wxFont& font)

Begins using this font.

### wxRichTextCtrl::BeginFontSize

### wxRichTextCtrl::BeginLeftIndent

bool BeginLeftIndent(int leftIndent, int leftSubIndent = 0)

Begins applying a left indent and subindent in tenths of a millimetre.

The sub-indent is an offset from the left of the paragraph, and is used for all but the first line in a paragraph. A positive value will cause the first line to appear to the left of the subsequent lines, and a negative value will cause the first line to be indented relative to the subsequent lines.

wxRichTextBuffer uses indentation to render a bulleted item. The left indent is the distance between the margin and the bullet. The content of the paragraph, including the first line, starts at leftMargin + leftSubIndent. So the distance between the left edge of the bullet and the left of the actual paragraph is leftSubIndent.

### wxRichTextCtrl::BeginLineSpacing

bool BeginLineSpacing(int lineSpacing)

Begins appling line spacing. spacing is a multiple, where 10 means single-spacing, 15 means 1.5 spacing, and 20 means double spacing. The following constants are defined for convenience:

    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_LINE_SPACING_NORMAL         10
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_LINE_SPACING_HALF           15
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_LINE_SPACING_TWICE          20

bulletNumber is a number, usually starting with 1.

leftIndent and leftSubIndent are values in tenths of a millimetre.

bulletStyle is a bitlist of the following values:

    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_NONE               0x00000000
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_ARABIC             0x00000001
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_LETTERS_UPPER      0x00000002
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_LETTERS_LOWER      0x00000004

    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_ROMAN_LOWER        0x00000010
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_SYMBOL             0x00000020
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_BITMAP             0x00000040
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_PARENTHESES        0x00000080
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_PERIOD             0x00000100
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_STANDARD           0x00000200
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_RIGHT_PARENTHESIS  0x00000400
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_OUTLINE            0x00000800
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_ALIGN_LEFT         0x00000000
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_ALIGN_RIGHT        0x00001000
    #define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_ALIGN_CENTRE       0x00002000

wxRichTextBuffer uses indentation to render a bulleted item. The left indent is the distance between the margin and the bullet. The content of the paragraph, including the first line, starts at leftMargin + leftSubIndent. So the distance between the left edge of the bullet and the left of the actual paragraph is leftSubIndent.

### wxRichTextCtrl::GetStyle

bool GetStyle(long position, wxRichTextAttr& style)

bool GetStyle(long position, wxTextAttrEx& style)

bool GetStyle(long position, wxTextAttr& style)

Gets the attributes at the given position. The wxRichTextAttr version is generally more efficient because it does not use wxFont objects.

This function gets the combined style - that is, the style you see on the screen as a result of combining base style, paragraph style and character style attributes. To get the character or paragraph style alone, use GetUncombinedStyle.

### wxRichTextCtrl::GetStyleForRange

bool GetStyleForRange(const wxRichTextRange& range, wxRichTextAttr& style)

### wxRichTextCtrl::GetUncombinedStyle

bool GetUncombinedStyle(long position, wxRichTextAttr& style)

bool GetUncombinedStyle(long position, wxTextAttrEx& style)

bool GetUncombinedStyle(long position, wxTextAttr& style)

Gets the attributes at the given position. The wxRichTextAttr version is generally more efficient because it does not use wxFont objects.

This function gets the uncombined style - that is, the attributes associated with the paragraph or character content, and not necessarily the combined attributes you see on the screen. To get the combined attributes, use GetStyle.

If you specify (any) paragraph attribute in style's flags, this function will fetch the paragraph attributes. Otherwise, it will return the character attributes.

### wxRichTextCtrl::GetValue

wxString GetValue() const

Returns the content of the entire control as a string.

### wxRichTextCtrl::GetVisibleLineForCaretPosition

wxRichTextLine* GetVisibleLineForCaretPosition(long caretPosition) const

Internal helper function returning the line for the visible caret position. If the caret is shown at the very end of the line, it means the next character is actually on the following line. So this function gets the line we're expecting to find if this is the case.

### wxRichTextCtrl::HasCharacterAttributes

bool HasCharacterAttributes(const wxRichTextRange& range, const wxTextAttrEx& style) const

bool HasCharacterAttributes(const wxRichTextRange& range, const wxRichTextAttr& style) const

Test if this whole range has character attributes of the specified kind. If any of the attributes are different within the range, the test fails. You can use this to implement, for example, bold button updating. style must have flags indicating which attributes are of interest.

### wxRichTextCtrl::HasParagraphAttributes

bool HasParagraphAttributes(const wxRichTextRange& range, const wxTextAttrEx& style) const

bool HasParagraphAttributes(const wxRichTextRange& range, const wxRichTextAttr& style) const

Test if this whole range has paragraph attributes of the specified kind. If any of the attributes are different within the range, the test fails. You can use this to implement, for example, centering button updating. style must have flags indicating which attributes are of interest.

### wxRichTextCtrl::HasSelection

bool HasSelection() const

Returns `true` if there is a selection.

### wxRichTextCtrl::HitTest

wxTextCtrlHitTestResult HitTest(const wxPoint& pt, long* pos) const

wxTextCtrlHitTestResult HitTest(const wxPoint& pt, wxTextCoord* col, wxTextCoord* row) const

Finds the character at the given position in pixels.

pt is in device coords (not adjusted for the client area origin nor for scrolling).

### wxRichTextCtrl::Init

void Init()

Initialises the members of the control.

### wxRichTextCtrl::InitCommandEvent

void InitCommandEvent(wxCommandEvent& event) const

Initialises the command event.

### wxRichTextCtrl::IsDefaultStyleShowing

bool IsDefaultStyleShowing() const

Returns `true` if the user has recently set the default style without moving the caret, and therefore the UI needs to reflect the default style and not the style at the caret.

Below is an example of code that uses this function to determine whether the UI should show that the current style is bold.

    /// Is all of the selection bold?
    bool wxRichTextCtrl::IsSelectionBold()
    {
        if (HasSelection())
        {
            wxRichTextAttr attr;
            wxRichTextRange range = GetInternalSelectionRange();
            attr.SetFlags(wxTEXT_ATTR_FONT_WEIGHT);
            attr.SetFontWeight(wxBOLD);

            return HasCharacterAttributes(range, attr);
        }
        else
        {
            // If no selection, then we need to combine current style with default style
            // to see what the effect would be if we started typing.
            wxRichTextAttr attr;
            attr.SetFlags(wxTEXT_ATTR_FONT_WEIGHT);

            long pos = GetAdjustedCaretPosition(GetCaretPosition());
