13 First some explanation about what a Cursor really is, from local to
16 * a CursorSlice indicates the position of the cursor at local level.
17 It contains in particular:
18 * idx(): the cell that contains the cursor (for Tabular or math
19 arrays). Always 0 for 'plain' insets
20 * pit(): the index of the current paragraph (only for text)
21 * pos(): the position in the current paragraph (or in the math
23 * inset(): the inset in which the cursor is. For a InsetTabular,
24 this is the tabular itself, not the cell inset (which is an
27 * a DocIterator indicated the position of the cursor in the document.
28 It knows about the current buffer (buffer() method) and contains a
29 vector of CursorSlices that describes the nesting of insets up to the
30 point of interest. Note that operator<< has been implemented, so that
31 one can send a DocIterator to a stream to see its value. Try it, it is
32 very helpful to understand the cursor layout.
33 * when using idx/pit/pos on a DocIterator, one gets the information
34 from the inner slice (this slice can be accessed as top())
35 * inMathed() returns true when the cursor is in a math formula
36 * inTexted() returns true when the cursor is in text
37 * innerTextSlice() returns the deepest slice that is text (useful
38 when one is in a math equation and looks for the enclosing text)
40 * A CursorData is a descendant of Dociterator that contains
41 * a second DocIterator object, the anchor, that is useful when
43 * some other data that describes current selection, cursor font, etc.
45 This class is mostly used only for undo and contains the Cursor
46 elements that are not GUI-related. In LyX 2.0, Cursor was directly
47 deriving from DocIterator
49 * A Cursor is a descendant of CursorData that contains interesting
50 display-related information, in particular the BufferView that owns it.
