Spanned

Fields Summary
public static final int	SPAN_POINT_MARK_MASK Bitmask of bits that are relevent for controlling point/mark behavior of spans.
public static final int	SPAN_MARK_MARK 0-length spans with type SPAN_MARK_MARK behave like text marks: they remain at their original offset when text is inserted at that offset.
public static final int	SPAN_MARK_POINT SPAN_MARK_POINT is a synonym for {@link #SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE}.
public static final int	SPAN_POINT_MARK SPAN_POINT_MARK is a synonym for {@link #SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE}.
public static final int	SPAN_POINT_POINT 0-length spans with type SPAN_POINT_POINT behave like cursors: they are pushed forward by the length of the insertion when text is inserted at their offset.
public static final int	SPAN_PARAGRAPH SPAN_PARAGRAPH behaves like SPAN_INCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE (SPAN_MARK_MARK), except that if either end of the span is at the end of the buffer, that end behaves like _POINT instead (so SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE if it starts in the middle and ends at the end, or SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE if it both starts and ends at the end). Its endpoints must be the start or end of the buffer or immediately after a \n character, and if the \n that anchors it is deleted, the endpoint is pulled to the next \n that follows in the buffer (or to the end of the buffer).
public static final int	SPAN_INCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE Non-0-length spans of type SPAN_INCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE expand to include text inserted at their starting point but not at their ending point. When 0-length, they behave like marks.
public static final int	SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE Spans of type SPAN_INCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE expand to include text inserted at either their starting or ending point.
public static final int	SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE Spans of type SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE do not expand to include text inserted at either their starting or ending point. They can never have a length of 0 and are automatically removed from the buffer if all the text they cover is removed.
public static final int	SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_INCLUSIVE Non-0-length spans of type SPAN_INCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE expand to include text inserted at their ending point but not at their starting point. When 0-length, they behave like points.
public static final int	SPAN_COMPOSING This flag is set on spans that are being used to apply temporary styling information on the composing text of an input method, so that they can be found and removed when the composing text is being replaced.
public static final int	SPAN_INTERMEDIATE This flag will be set for intermediate span changes, meaning there is guaranteed to be another change following it. Typically it is used for {@link Selection} which automatically uses this with the first offset it sets when updating the selection.
public static final int	SPAN_USER_SHIFT The bits numbered SPAN_USER_SHIFT and above are available for callers to use to store scalar data associated with their span object.
public static final int	SPAN_USER The bits specified by the SPAN_USER bitfield are available for callers to use to store scalar data associated with their span object.
public static final int	SPAN_PRIORITY_SHIFT The bits numbered just above SPAN_PRIORITY_SHIFT determine the order of change notifications -- higher numbers go first. You probably don't need to set this; it is used so that when text changes, the text layout gets the chance to update itself before any other callbacks can inquire about the layout of the text.
public static final int	SPAN_PRIORITY The bits specified by the SPAN_PRIORITY bitmap determine the order of change notifications -- higher numbers go first. You probably don't need to set this; it is used so that when text changes, the text layout gets the chance to update itself before any other callbacks can inquire about the layout of the text.

Constructors Summary

Methods Summary
public int	getSpanEnd(java.lang.Object tag) Return the end of the range of text to which the specified markup object is attached, or -1 if the object is not attached.
public int	getSpanFlags(java.lang.Object tag) Return the flags that were specified when {@link Spannable#setSpan} was used to attach the specified markup object, or 0 if the specified object has not been attached.
public int	getSpanStart(java.lang.Object tag) Return the beginning of the range of text to which the specified markup object is attached, or -1 if the object is not attached.
public T[]	getSpans(int start, int end, java.lang.Class type) Return an array of the markup objects attached to the specified slice of this CharSequence and whose type is the specified type or a subclass of it. Specify Object.class for the type if you want all the objects regardless of type.
public int	nextSpanTransition(int start, int limit, java.lang.Class type) Return the first offset greater than or equal to start where a markup object of class type begins or ends, or limit if there are no starts or ends greater than or equal to start but less than limit. Specify null or Object.class for the type if you want every transition regardless of type.
