Hi , On a related note - I have about a 1000 lines of code working well and using gtk source view.
All this is in gtk 3+ I probably have another work of 500 lines to go before I start trying to demo/release to users. should I be prioritizing about : a) upgrading to gtk 4 b) getting the final application to work on windows, mac ? Now I am testing on fedora as I code... Thank you for awesome support so far. cheers, karan On Fri, Jan 19, 2018 at 8:32 PM, Florian Müllner <fmuell...@gnome.org> wrote: > On Wed, Jan 17, 2018 at 3:19 PM, Lucky B.C <lblack...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I'm trying to get the range of the selected word by > > gtk_text_iter_get_offset (start) and gtk_text_ter_get_offset (end) on > > the “extend-selection” signal, > > Right, that doesn't work.
