Enumeration

PangoGravity

since: 1.16

Declaration 

enum Pango.Gravity

Description [src]

PangoGravity represents the orientation of glyphs in a segment of text.

This is useful when rendering vertical text layouts. In those situations, the layout is rotated using a non-identity PangoMatrix, and then glyph orientation is controlled using PangoGravity.

Not every value in this enumeration makes sense for every usage of PangoGravity; for example, PANGO_GRAVITY_AUTO only can be passed to pango_context_set_base_gravity() and can only be returned by pango_context_get_base_gravity().
