19  * @short_description: Widget representing a text view in the Hildon framework.
20  *
21  * The #HildonTextView is a GTK widget which represents a text
22  * view. It is derived from the #GtkTextView widget and provides
23  * additional commodities specific to the Hildon framework.
24  *
25  * Besides all the features inherited from #GtkTextView, a
26  * #HildonTextView can also have a placeholder text. This text will be
27  * shown if the text view is empty and doesn't have the input focus,
28  * but it's otherwise ignored. Thus, calls to
29  * hildon_text_view_get_buffer() will never return the placeholder
30  * text, not even when it's being displayed.
31  *
32  * Although #HildonTextView is derived from #GtkTextView,
33  * gtk_text_view_get_buffer() and gtk_text_view_set_buffer() must
34  * never be used to get/set the buffer in this
35  * widget. hildon_text_view_get_buffer() and
36  * hildon_text_view_set_buffer() must be used instead.
37  *
38  * <example>
