MoveTo(ITextViewLine, Double, Boolean)

Moves the caret to the best CaretPosition for the given x-coordinate and text line.

MoveTo(SnapshotPoint, PositionAffinity)

Moves the caret to the given index in the underlying ITextBuffer.

MoveTo(VirtualSnapshotPoint, PositionAffinity)

Moves the caret to the specified bufferPosition.

MoveTo(VirtualSnapshotPoint)

public:
 Microsoft::VisualStudio::Text::Editor::CaretPosition MoveTo(Microsoft::VisualStudio::Text::VirtualSnapshotPoint bufferPosition, Microsoft::VisualStudio::Text::PositionAffinity caretAffinity, bool captureHorizontalPosition);
public Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.Editor.CaretPosition MoveTo (Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.VirtualSnapshotPoint bufferPosition, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.PositionAffinity caretAffinity, bool captureHorizontalPosition);
abstract member MoveTo : Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.VirtualSnapshotPoint * Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.PositionAffinity * bool -> Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.Editor.CaretPosition
Public Function MoveTo (bufferPosition As VirtualSnapshotPoint, caretAffinity As PositionAffinity, captureHorizontalPosition As Boolean) As CaretPosition

Parameters

bufferPosition
VirtualSnapshotPoint

The VirtualSnapshotPoint in the underlying text buffer to which to move the caret.

caretAffinity
PositionAffinity

The affinity of the caret. This will be ignored unless bufferPosition specifies a location that is at the seam between two word-wrapped lines.

captureHorizontalPosition
Boolean

If true, the caret will capture its horizontal position for subsequent moves up or down. If false, the caret retains its previously-captured horizontal position.

Returns

A CaretPosition that contains the valid values of the caret position after the move has occurred.

Remarks

This method handles UTF-16 surrogate pairs and combining character sequences. For example, if the text buffer consists of a high surrogate character at index 0 and a low surrogate character at index 1, and bufferPosition is 1 and caretAffinity is Successor, the actual valid caret index is 0 (since the high surrogate and low surrogate characters form one text element). If caretAffinity is Predecessor, the actual valid caret index is 2.

Parameters

caretAffinity
PositionAffinity

The affinity of the caret. This will be ignored unless bufferPosition specifies a location that is at the seam between two word-wrapped lines.

captureHorizontalPosition
Boolean

true if the caret should capture its horizontal position for subsequent moves up or down, false if the caret should retain its previously-captured horizontal position.

Returns

A CaretPosition that contains the valid values of the caret position after the move has occurred.

Remarks

This method handles UTF-16 surrogate pairs and combining character sequences. For example, if the text buffer consists of a high surrogate character at index 0 and a low surrogate character at index 1, and bufferPosition is 1 and caretAffinity is Successor, the actual valid caret index is 0 (since the high surrogate and low surrogate characters form one text element). If caretAffinity isPredecessor, the actual valid caret index is 2.

Exceptions

xCoordinate is NaN.
