Given an iter
within a text layout, determine the positions of the strong and weak cursors if the insertion point is at that
iterator.
The position of each cursor is stored as a zero-width rectangle. The strong cursor location is the location where characters of the directionality equal to the base direction of the paragraph are inserted. The weak cursor location is the location where characters of the directionality opposite to the base direction of the paragraph are inserted.
If iter
is null, the actual cursor position is used.
Note that if iter
happens to be the actual cursor position, and there is currently an IM preedit sequence being entered, the
returned locations will be adjusted to account for the preedit cursor’s offset within the preedit sequence.
The rectangle position is in buffer coordinates; use buffer_to_window_coords to convert these coordinates to coordinates for one of the windows in the text view.
