pangoCairoCreateLayout: pangoCairoCreateLayout
Description
Creates a layout object set up to match the current transformation
and target surface of the Cairo context. This layout can then be
used for text measurement with functions like
pangoLayoutGetSize
or drawing with functions like
pangoCairoShowLayout
. If you change the transformation
or target surface for cr
, you need to call pangoCairoUpdateLayout
Usage
pangoCairoCreateLayout(cr)
Details
This function is the most convenient way to use Cairo with Pango,
however it is slightly inefficient since it creates a separate
PangoContext
object for each layout. This might matter in an
application that was laying out large amounts of text.
