TextPointer.GetNextInsertionPosition Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Returns a TextPointer to the next insertion position in the specified logical direction.

Namespace:  System.Windows.Documents
Assembly:  System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function GetNextInsertionPosition ( _
    direction As LogicalDirection _
) As TextPointer
public TextPointer GetNextInsertionPosition(
    LogicalDirection direction
)

Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.Windows.Documents.TextPointer
A TextPointer that identifies the next insertion position in the requested direction, or nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if no next insertion position can be found.

Remarks

An insertion position is a position where new content may be added without breaking any semantic rules for the associated content. In practice, an insertion position is anywhere in content where a caret may be positioned. An example of a valid TextPointer position that is not an insertion position is the position between two adjacent Paragraph tags (that is, between the closing tag of the preceding paragraph and the opening tag of the next paragraph).

Examples

The following code uses the GetNextInsertionPosition method to underline the last word in the RichTextBox. This code example is part of a larger example used in the TextPointer class.

Run this sample

    'This method underlines the last word in a RichTextBox
    Public Sub UnderlineLastWord()
        Dim EndofContent As TextPointer = MyRTB1.ContentEnd.GetNextInsertionPosition(LogicalDirection.Backward)
        Dim currentPointer As TextPointer = EndofContent.GetNextInsertionPosition(LogicalDirection.Backward)
        If (currentPointer Is Nothing) Then
            Return
        End If
        Dim currentChar As String = GetCurrentChar(MyRTB1, currentPointer, LogicalDirection.Backward)

        While ((currentChar <> " ") _
                    AndAlso (currentChar <> ""))
            currentPointer = currentPointer.GetNextInsertionPosition(LogicalDirection.Backward)
            currentChar = GetCurrentChar(MyRTB1, currentPointer, LogicalDirection.Backward)
