IWpfTextViewLineCollection::GetMarkerGeometry Method (SnapshotSpan)

Visual Studio 2015

Creates a marker geometry for the specified snapshot span.

Namespace: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.Editor
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.UI.Wpf (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.UI.Wpf.dll)

Syntax

C++

Geometry^ GetMarkerGeometry(
	SnapshotSpan bufferSpan
)

Parameters

bufferSpan: Type: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text::SnapshotSpan
The span of text.

Return Value

Type: System.Windows.Media::Geometry^

A Geometry that contains the bounds of all of the formatted text in bufferSpan.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	bufferSpan is not a valid SnapshotSpan on the buffer.

Remarks

If the span extends beyond one line, then GetLineMarkerGeometry is used to calculate the marker geometry, otherwise this method uses GetTextMarkerGeometry to construct the geometry.

The returned geometry may contain several disjoint regions if the span contains a mix of conventional and bi-directional text.
