## Description

## Functions

### inf_text_remote_delete_operation_new ()

    InfTextRemoteDeleteOperation *
    inf_text_remote_delete_operation_new (guint position,
                                          guint length);

Creates a new delete operation that, when applied, deletes `length` characters starting from position `position` . Note that this operation is not reversible because it does not know the text to delete and is therefore only used to transmit a delete operation through the network to reduce bandwidth usage. The remote part can then reconstruct the deleted text using `inf_adopted_operation_apply_transformed()`.

However, it is easier to just use InfTextDefaultDeleteOperation if you want the operation to be reversible.

#### Parameters

position | The position at which to delete text. |
length | The number of characters to delete. |

#### Returns

A new InfTextRemoteDeleteOperation.

### struct InfTextRemoteDeleteOperation

    struct InfTextRemoteDeleteOperation;
