gtkTextBufferGetSelectionBound {RGtk2} | R Documentation

## gtkTextBufferGetSelectionBound

### Description

Returns the mark that represents the selection bound. Equivalent to calling `gtkTextBufferGetMark` to get the mark named "selection_bound", but very slightly more efficient, and involves less typing.

### Usage

    gtkTextBufferGetSelectionBound(object)

### Arguments

``object`` | a `GtkTextBuffer`

### Details

The currently-selected text in `buffer` is the region between the "selection_bound" and "insert" marks. If "selection_bound" and "insert" are in the same place, then there is no current selection. `gtkTextBufferGetSelectionBounds` is another convenient function for handling the selection, if you just want to know whether there's a selection and what its bounds are.

### Value

[`GtkTextMark`] selection bound mark. [ transfer none ]
