================================

================================================================================ ================================================================================
:meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext.__init__`                             Pass the buffer to the context so the context can retrieve information such as virtual attributes.
:meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext.ApplyVirtualAttributes`               Applies any virtual attributes relevant to this object.
:meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext.EnableVirtualAttributes`              Enables virtual attribute processing.
:meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext.GetVirtualAttributes`                 Returns the virtual attributes for this object.
:meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext.GetVirtualAttributesEnabled`          Returns ``True`` if virtual attribute processing is enabled.
:meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext.GetVirtualSubobjectAttributes`        Gets the mixed virtual attributes for individual positions within the object.
:meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext.GetVirtualSubobjectAttributesCount`   Gets the count for mixed virtual attributes for individual positions within the object.
:meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext.GetVirtualText`                       Gets the virtual text for this object.
:meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext.HasVirtualAttributes`                 Does this object have virtual attributes? Virtual attributes can be provided for visual cues without affecting the actual styling.
:meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext.HasVirtualText`                       Do we have virtual text for this object? Virtual text allows an application to replace characters in an object for editing and display purposes, for example for highlighting special characters.
:meth:`~wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext.Init`

===============


.. class:: wx.richtext.RichTextDrawingContext(Object)

   **Possible constructors**::

       RichTextDrawingContext(buffer)
       
   
   A class for passing information to drawing and measuring functions.



   .. method:: __init__(self, buffer)

      Pass the buffer to the context so the context can retrieve information such as virtual attributes.                  


      :param `buffer`: 
      :type `buffer`: wx.richtext.RichTextBuffer







   .. method:: ApplyVirtualAttributes(self, attr, obj)

      Applies any virtual attributes relevant to this object.                  


      :param `attr`: 
      :type `attr`: wx.richtext.RichTextAttr
      :param `obj`: 
      :type `obj`: wx.richtext.RichTextObject




      :rtype: `bool`








   .. method:: EnableVirtualAttributes(self, b)

      Enables virtual attribute processing.                  


      :param `b`: 
      :type `b`: bool







   .. method:: GetVirtualAttributes(self, obj)

      Returns the virtual attributes for this object.                  

      Virtual attributes can be provided for visual cues without affecting the actual styling.                  


      :param `obj`: 
      :type `obj`: wx.richtext.RichTextObject




      :rtype: :ref:`wx.richtext.RichTextAttr`








   .. method:: GetVirtualAttributesEnabled(self)

      Returns ``True`` if virtual attribute processing is enabled.                  

      :rtype: `bool`








   .. method:: GetVirtualSubobjectAttributes(self, obj, positions, attributes)

      Gets the mixed virtual attributes for individual positions within the object.                  

      For example, individual characters within a text object may require special highlighting. The function is passed the count returned by GetVirtualSubobjectAttributesCount.                  


      :param `obj`: 
      :type `obj`: wx.richtext.RichTextObject
      :param `positions`:
