| Allegro CL version 10.1 Unrevised from 10.0 to 10.1. 10.0 version |
Arguments: window &rest args
Sets the paragraph format of window, which must
be an instance of text-edit-pane
. Note that a rich-edit-pane
is an
instance of text-edit-pane
. Note further that
neither a text-edit-window
nor a rich-edit
control are
accepted as arguments. (A text-edit-window is usually the parent of a
text-edit-pane. Applying window to a rich-edit control
typically returns the rich-edit-pane suitable as an argument to this
function.)
The other arguments set paragraph formatting characteristics. They are keyword arguments (and so should be specified in keyword/value pairs). They are as follows:
:justification
:
:justification should be is one of :left,
:center, :right, or nil
for no change.
:numbering-style
: numbering-style is one of :bullets, :plain, or
nil
for no change.
:top-left-indentation
,
:body-left-indentation
,
:right-indentation
,
:top-left-indentation-is-relative
:
top-left-indentation,
body-left-indentation, and
right-indentation are each a number in points, or
nil
for no change.
top-left-indentation is the indentation of the first line of text. If top-left-indentation-is-relative is true, then top-left-indentation is relative to the current indentation of each affected paragraph.
body-left-indentation is the indentation of the second and following lines of text, relative to the first line of text.
right-indentation is the indentation of the right side of the text.
:tabs
: tabs is a list
of tab positions from left to right, specified in points, or
t
for no
change. t
is the
default. nil
would remove any tabs that
are currently set. The Microsoft control allows up to 32 tab
positions, and Common Graphics will simply ignore any beyond the first
32 in the list.
See cg-rich-text.htm for information about rich text editing in Common Graphics.
Formated editable text is not yet implemented on the GTK platform. It appears feasible to implement functions such as set-character-format and set-paragraph-format that modify the text formatting of an edit control, but not to implement functions such as rich-text and rich-edit-range that handle actual rich text strings.
Attempting to create a rich-edit
widget or a rich-edit-pane
window currently will error on
GTK.
