From: Magnar Sveen <magnars <at> gmail.com> To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org Subject: 24.2; Cursor position after after-string on overlay at point-max Date: Sun, 03 Mar 2013 20:19:33 +0100
- Write some text into a buffer
- Create this overlay:
(let ((o (make-overlay (point-max) (point-max) nil t t))
(s "There's\na multiline\nstring here"))
(set-text-properties 0 (length s)
`(face (:foreground ,(format "#%02x%02x%02x" 90 90 90))) s)
(overlay-put o 'priority 100)
(overlay-put o 'after-string s))
;; the text-properties aren't important, it's just there to
;; separate the overlay visually.
- Go to point-max.
- Type something.
Notice that the point of insertion is not reflected by the position of
the cursor.
Basically, the cursor is positioned after the after-string of an overlay
at point-max, even if it does not accurately reflect where text is
inserted. If the after-string is large enough, you could be inserting
text outside the screen and not know about it.
I am trying to use this so that I can display some extra information
after contents of the buffer. However, it gets mighty annoying when the
cursor is placed after all the second-order information I am displaying
there.
Maybe the placement of the cursor should depend on the the value of
rear-advance?
