\func{}{\destruct{wxRichTextCtrl}}{\void}

Destructor.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::AddImage}\label{wxrichtextctrladdimage}

\func{wxRichTextRange}{AddImage}{\param{const wxImage\& }{image}}

Adds an image to the control's buffer.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::AddParagraph}\label{wxrichtextctrladdparagraph}

\func{wxRichTextRange}{AddParagraph}{\param{const wxString\& }{text}}

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::AppendText}\label{wxrichtextctrlappendtext}

\func{void}{AppendText}{\param{const wxString\& }{text}}

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::ApplyAlignmentToSelection}\label{wxrichtextctrlapplyalignmenttoselection}

\func{bool}{ApplyAlignmentToSelection}{\param{wxTextAttrAlignment }{alignment}}

Applies the given alignment to the selection (undoable).

For alignment values, see \helpref{wxTextAttrEx}{wxtextattrex}.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::ApplyBoldToSelection}\label{wxrichtextctrlapplyboldtoselection}

\func{bool}{ApplyBoldToSelection}{\void}

Apples bold to the selection (undoable).

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::ApplyItalicToSelection}\label{wxrichtextctrlapplyitalictoselection}

\func{bool}{ApplyItalicToSelection}{\void}

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::ApplyUnderlineToSelection}\label{wxrichtextctrlapplyunderlinetoselection}

\func{bool}{ApplyUnderlineToSelection}{\void}

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BatchingUndo}\label{wxrichtextctrlbatchingundo}

\constfunc{bool}{BatchingUndo}{\void}

Returns \true if undo commands are being batched.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BeginAlignment}\label{wxrichtextctrlbeginalignment}

\func{bool}{BeginAlignment}{\param{wxTextAttrAlignment }{alignment}}

Begins using alignment

For alignment values, see \helpref{wxTextAttrEx}{wxtextattrex}.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BeginBatchUndo}\label{wxrichtextctrlbeginbatchundo}

\func{bool}{BeginBatchUndo}{\param{const wxString\& }{cmdName}}

Starts batching undo history for commands.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BeginBold}\label{wxrichtextctrlbeginbold}

\func{bool}{BeginBold}{\void}

Begins using bold.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BeginCharacterStyle}\label{wxrichtextctrlbegincharacterstyle}

\func{bool}{BeginCharacterStyle}{\param{const wxString\& }{characterStyle}}

Begins using the named character style.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BeginFont}\label{wxrichtextctrlbeginfont}

\func{bool}{BeginFont}{\param{const wxFont\& }{font}}

Begins using this font.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BeginFontSize}\label{wxrichtextctrlbeginfontsize}

\func{bool}{BeginFontSize}{\param{int }{pointSize}}

Begins using the given point size.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BeginItalic}\label{wxrichtextctrlbeginitalic}

\func{bool}{BeginItalic}{\void}

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BeginLeftIndent}\label{wxrichtextctrlbeginleftindent}

\func{bool}{BeginLeftIndent}{\param{int }{leftIndent}, \param{int }{leftSubIndent = 0}}

Begins applying a left indent and subindent in tenths of a millimetre.

The sub-indent is an offset from the left of the paragraph, and is used for all but the
first line in a paragraph. A positive value will cause the first line to appear to the left
of the subsequent lines, and a negative value will cause the first line to be indented
relative to the subsequent lines.

wxRichTextBuffer uses indentation to render a bulleted item. The left indent is the distance between
the margin and the bullet. The content of the paragraph, including the first line, starts
at leftMargin + leftSubIndent. So the distance between the left edge of the bullet and the
left of the actual paragraph is leftSubIndent.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BeginLineSpacing}\label{wxrichtextctrlbeginlinespacing}

\func{bool}{BeginLineSpacing}{\param{int }{lineSpacing}}

Begins appling line spacing. {\it spacing} is a multiple, where 10 means single-spacing,
15 means 1.5 spacing, and 20 means double spacing. The following constants are
defined for convenience:


{\small
\begin{verbatim}
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_LINE_SPACING_NORMAL         10
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_LINE_SPACING_HALF           15
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_LINE_SPACING_TWICE          20
\end{verbatim}
}

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BeginNumberedBullet}\label{wxrichtextctrlbeginnumberedbullet}

\func{bool}{BeginNumberedBullet}{\param{int }{bulletNumber}, \param{int }{leftIndent}, \param{int }{leftSubIndent}, \param{int }{bulletStyle = wxTEXT\_ATTR\_BULLET\_STYLE\_ARABIC|wxTEXT\_ATTR\_BULLET\_STYLE\_PERIOD}}

Begins a numbered bullet. This call will be needed for each item in the list, and the
application should take care of incrementing the numbering.

{\it bulletNumber} is a number, usually starting with 1.

{\it leftIndent} and {\it leftSubIndent} are values in tenths of a millimetre.

{\it bulletStyle} is a bitlist of the following values:

{\small
\begin{verbatim}
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_NONE           0x0000
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_ARABIC         0x0001
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_LETTERS_UPPER  0x0002
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_LETTERS_LOWER  0x0004
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_ROMAN_UPPER    0x0008
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_ROMAN_LOWER    0x0010
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_SYMBOL         0x0020
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_BITMAP         0x0040
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_PARENTHESES    0x0080
#define wxTEXT_ATTR_BULLET_STYLE_PERIOD         0x0100
\end{verbatim}
}

wxRichTextBuffer uses indentation to render a bulleted item. The left indent is the distance between
the margin and the bullet. The content of the paragraph, including the first line, starts
at leftMargin + leftSubIndent. So the distance between the left edge of the bullet and the
left of the actual paragraph is leftSubIndent.

\membersection{wxRichTextCtrl::BeginParagraphSpacing}\label{wxrichtextctrlbeginparagraphspacing}

\func{bool}{BeginParagraphSpacing}{\param{int }{before}, \param{int }{after}}

\constfunc{wxRichTextLine*}{GetVisibleLineForCaretPosition}{\param{long }{caretPosition}}

Internal helper function returning the line for the visible caret position. If the caret is
shown at the very end of the line, it means the next character is actually
