Attributes

Description

A gtk.TextAttributes object holds a set of attributes that describe the properties of a section of text. A gtk.TextAttributes object is usually obtained by calling either of the gtk.TextIter.get_attributes() or gtk.TextView.get_default_attributes() methods to retrieve the attributes in effect.

A gtk.TextAttributes object created with gtk.TextAttributes() cannot be applied within PyGTK because there is no way to set the attributes. Likewise, the copy() and copy_values() methods can create a new copy or copy the attributes but there are no methods in PyGTK that take a gtk.TextAttributes object as an argument. The most effective way to use a gtk.TextAttributes object is to read its attributes and use them to set the properties of a gtk.TextTag.
