atk.EditableText — the ATK interface implemented by components containing user-editable text content.

Synopsis

class atk.EditableText(gobject.GInterface):
    def set_run_attributes(attrib_set, start_offset, end_offset)
def set_text_contents(string)
def insert_text(string, length, position)
def copy_text(start_pos, end_pos)
def cut_text(start_pos, end_pos)
def delete_text(start_pos, end_pos)
def paste_text(position)

Description

atk.EditableText should be implemented by UI components which contain text which the user can edit, via the atk.Object corresponding to that component (see atk.Object).

atk.EditableText is a subclass of atk.Text, and as such, an object which implements atk.EditableText is by definition an atk.Text implementor as well.
