GooCanvasTextModel represents a model for text items.
It is a subclass of GooCanvasItemModelSimple and so inherits all of the style properties such as "fill-color".
It also implements the GooCanvasItemModel interface, so you can use the
GooCanvasItemModel functions such as goo_canvas_item_model_raise() and
goo_canvas_item_model_rotate().
To create a GooCanvasTextModel use goo_canvas_text_model_new().
To get or set the properties of an existing GooCanvasTextModel, use
g_object_get() and g_object_set().
To respond to events such as mouse clicks on the text item you must connect
to the signal handlers of the corresponding GooCanvasText objects.
(See goo_canvas_get_item() and "item-created".)
typedef struct _GooCanvasTextModel GooCanvasTextModel;
The GooCanvasTextModel struct contains private data only.
GooCanvasItemModel* goo_canvas_text_model_new (GooCanvasItemModel *parent, const char *string, gdouble x, gdouble y, gdouble width, GtkAnchorType anchor, ...);
Creates a new text model.
| 
 | the parent model, or NULL. If a parent is specified, it will
 assume ownership of the item, and the item will automatically be freed when
 it is removed from the parent. Otherwise callg_object_unref()to free it. | 
| 
 | the text to display. | 
| 
 | the x coordinate of the text. | 
| 
 | the y coordinate of the text. | 
| 
 | the width of the text item, or -1 for unlimited width. | 
| 
 | the position of the text relative to the given xandycoordinates. For example an anchor ofGDK_ANCHOR_NWwill result in the
 top-left of the text being placed at the givenxandycoordinates.
 An anchor ofGDK_ANCHOR_CENTERwill result in the center of the text being
 placed at thexandycoordinates. | 
| 
 | optional pairs of property names and values, and a terminating NULL. | 
| Returns : | a new text model. | 
Here's an example showing how to create a text item with the bottom right of the text box placed at (500,500):
 GooCanvasItemModel *text = goo_canvas_text_model_new (mygroup, "Hello World", 500.0, 500.0, 200.0, GTK_ANCHOR_SE,
                                                       "fill-color", "blue",
                                                       NULL);
