Re: block textbuffer selection

[rob page <page rob gmail com>]

Probably not the best way but.... you can do this by:


get_buffer()->signal_mark_set().connect(sigc::mem_fun(*this, &on_mark_changed));

.....

void on_mark_changed(Gtk::TextBuffer::iterator iter,
Glib::RefPtr<Gtk::TextBuffer::Mark> mark){
	if (mark->get_name()=="selection")
	{
                get_buffer()->place_cursor(get_insert().get_mark());
	}
}

It works in my head!

Good luck

Rob.
