Hello there, I have posted this question on the gtk-sharp mailing list but, maybe I will get more lock here. I'm browsing the documentation of Pango and Gtk for some time now and I didn't find a clear "connexion" between a Gtk::TextBuffer and a Pango::Layout. So, the question is : Is there a way that a can populate a Gtk::TextBuffer with a string formatted with markup's as the Pango::Layout.SetMarkup(string) can do. For now, I plan to subclass a Gtk::TextBuffer (or a Gtk::TextView) and add a "void SetMarkup(string)" method that will parse the string and use a bunch of TextTag to do the text formating internally. I also plan to add a "string GetMarkup()" method witch will produce a string with markup's from the content of the Gtk::TextBufer. Is this a good way to go or there is already a simpler way to do what I want ? In fact, my goal is to create a simple wysiwyg text editor and render the text produced on a Pango::Layout and then, on a Cairo::Surface. Any thought ?
