# rulerView(_:didRemove:)

Modifies the paragraph style of the paragraphs containing the selection—if possible—by removing the specified marker.

## Declaration

```swift
func rulerView(_ ruler: NSRulerView, didRemove marker: NSRulerMarker)
```

## Parameters

- `ruler`: The ruler view sending the message.
- `marker`: The marker that was removed.

## Discussion

Discussion This method records the change by invoking didChangeText() after removing the marker. NSTextView checks for permission to move or remove a tab stop in its rulerView(_:shouldMove:) method, which invokes shouldChangeText(in:replacementString:) to send out the proper request and notifications, and only invokes this method if permission is granted.
