### Method

# Gtk TextIter can_insert

#### Declaration [src]

    gboolean
    gtk_text_iter_can_insert (
      const GtkTextIter* iter,
      gboolean default_editability
    )

#### Description [src]

Considering the default editability of the buffer, and tags that affect editability, determines whether text inserted at `iter` would be editable.

#### Parameters

`default_editability`

  Type: `gboolean`

  `TRUE` if text is editable by default.

#### Return value

Type: `gboolean`

Whether text inserted at `iter` would be editable.
