pangoItemSplit {RGtk2} | R Documentation

## pangoItemSplit

### Description

Modifies `orig` to cover only the text after `split.index`, and returns a new item that covers the text before `split.index` that used to be in `orig`. You can think of `split.index` as the length of the returned item. `split.index` may not be 0, and it may not be greater than or equal to the length of `orig` (that is, there must be at least one byte assigned to each item, you can't create a zero-length item). `split.offset` is the length of the first item in chars, and must be provided because the text used to generate the item isn't available, so `pangoItemSplit` can't count the char length of the split items itself.

### Usage

    pangoItemSplit(orig, split.index, split.offset)

### Arguments

``orig`` | [`PangoItem`] a `PangoItem`
``split.index`` | [integer] byte index of position to split item, relative to the start of the item
``split.offset`` | [integer] number of chars between start of `orig` and `split.index`

### Value

[`PangoItem`] new item representing text before `split.index`,
