## Functions

### atspi_editable_text_set_attributes ()

    gboolean
    atspi_editable_text_set_attributes (AtspiEditableText *obj,
                                        const char *attributes,
                                        gint start_pos,
                                        gint end_pos);

Sets the attributes applied to a range of text from an AtspiEditableText object, and the bounds of the range.

#### Parameters

obj | a pointer to the AtspiEditableText object to modify. |
attributes | a string indicating the attributes to apply to the range, delimited by ':'. |
startOffset | a gint indicating the start of the desired text range. |
endOffset | a gint indicating the first character past the desired range. |

#### Returns

TRUE if the operation was successful, otherwise FALSE.

### atspi_editable_text_insert_text ()

    gboolean
    atspi_editable_text_insert_text (AtspiEditableText *obj,
                                     gint position,
                                     const gchar *text,
                                     gint length,
                                     GError **error);

Inserts text into an AtspiEditableText object. As with all character offsets, the specified `position` may not be the same as the resulting byte offset, since the text is in a variable-width encoding.

#### Parameters

obj | a pointer to the AtspiEditableText object to modify. |
position | a gint indicating the character offset at which to insert the new text. |
text | a string representing the text to insert, in UTF-8 encoding. |
length | the number of characters of text to insert. If the character count of text is less than or equal to length, the entire contents of text will be inserted. |

#### Returns

TRUE if the operation was successful, otherwise FALSE.

### atspi_editable_text_copy_text ()

    gboolean
    atspi_editable_text_copy_text (AtspiEditableText *obj,
                                   gint start_pos,
                                   gint end_pos,
                                   GError **error);

Copies text from an AtspiEditableText object into the system clipboard.

see: atspi_editable_text_paste_text

#### Parameters

obj | a pointer to the AtspiEditableText object to modify. |
start_pos | a gint indicating the starting character offset of the text to copy. |
end_pos | a gint indicating the offset of the first character past the end of the text section to be copied. |

#### Returns

TRUE if the operation was successful, otherwise FALSE.

### atspi_editable_text_cut_text ()

    gboolean
    atspi_editable_text_cut_text (AtspiEditableText *obj,
                                  gint start_pos,
                                  gint end_pos,
                                  GError **error);

Deletes text from an AtspiEditableText object, copying the excised portion into the system clipboard.

see: atspi_editable_text_paste_text

#### Parameters

obj | a pointer to the AtspiEditableText object to modify. |
start_pos | a gint indicating the starting character offset of the text to cut. |
end_pos | a gint indicating the offset of the first character past the end of the text section to be cut. |

#### Returns

TRUE if operation was successful, FALSE otherwise.

### atspi_editable_text_delete_text ()

    gboolean
    atspi_editable_text_delete_text (AtspiEditableText *obj,
                                     gint start_pos,
                                     gint end_pos,
                                     GError **error);

Deletes text from an AtspiEditableText object, without copying the excised portion into the system clipboard.

see: atspi_editable_text_cut_text

#### Parameters

obj | a pointer to the AtspiEditableText object to modify. |
start_pos | a gint indicating the starting character offset of the text to delete. |
end_pos | a gint indicating the offset of the first character past the end of the text section to be deleted. |

#### Returns

TRUE if the operation was successful, otherwise FALSE.

### atspi_editable_text_paste_text ()

    gboolean
    atspi_editable_text_paste_text (AtspiEditableText *obj,
                                    gint position,
                                    GError **error);

Inserts text from the system clipboard into an AtspiEditableText object. As with all character offsets, the specified `position` may not be the same as the resulting byte offset, since the text is in a variable-width encoding.

#### Parameters

obj | a pointer to the AtspiEditableText object to modify. |
position | a gint indicating the character offset at which to insert the new text. |

#### Returns

TRUE if the operation was successful, otherwise FALSE.
