pango Constants the built-in constants of the pango module The Alignment constants specify how to align the lines of a pango.Layout within the available space. If the pango.Layout is set to justify using the pango.Layout.set_justify() method, then this only has an effect for partial lines. pango.ALIGN_LEFT Put all available space on the right pango.ALIGN_CENTER Center the line within the available space pango.ALIGN_RIGHT Put all available space on the left The Attribute Type constants specify the type of a pango.Attribute.Along with the predefined values, it is possible to allocate additional values for custom attributes using the pango.attr_type_register() function. The predefined values are given below. The type of structure used to store the attribute is listed in parentheses after the description. pango.ATTR_LANGUAGE Specifies a pango.Language. pango.ATTR_FAMILY Specifies a font family name list as a string. pango.ATTR_STYLE Specifies a font slant style. See the pango.AttrStyle() function for more details. pango.ATTR_WEIGHT Specifies a font weight. See the pango.AttrWeight() function for more detail. pango.ATTR_VARIANT Specifies a font variant (normal or small caps). See the pango.AttrVariant() function for more detail. pango.ATTR_STRETCH Specifies a font stretch. See the pango.AttrStretch() function for more details. pango.ATTR_SIZE Specifies a font size in thousandths of a point. pango.ATTR_FONT_DESC Specifies a pango.FontDescription. pango.ATTR_FOREGROUND Specifies a foreground pango.Color. pango.ATTR_BACKGROUND Specifies a background pango.Color. pango.ATTR_UNDERLINE Specifies an underline style. See the pango.AttrUnderline() function for more details. pango.ATTR_STRIKETHROUGH If True the text is struck through. pango.ATTR_RISE Specifies the displacement of the text from the baseline. pango.ATTR_SHAPE Specifies a shape. See the pango.AttrShape() function for more details. pango.ATTR_SCALE Specifies a font size scale factor. pango.ATTR_FALLBACK if True, fallback to other fonts is enabled ( pango.COVERAGE_NONE The character is not representable with the font. pango.COVERAGE_FALLBACK The character is represented in a way that may be comprehensible but is not the correct graphical form. For instance, a Hangul character represented as a a sequence of Jamos, or a Latin transliteration of a Cyrillic word. pango.COVERAGE_APPROXIMATE The character is represented as basically the correct graphical form, but with a stylistic variant inappropriate for the current script. pango.COVERAGE_EXACT The character is represented as the correct graphical form. The pango Direction constants specify a direction in the Unicode bidirectional algorithm. Not every value in this enumeration makes sense for every usage of pango Direction. The pango.DIRECTION_TTB_LTR, pango.DIRECTION_TTB_RTL values come from an earlier interpretation of this enumeration as the writing direction of a block of text and are no longer used; See the Text module of the CSS3 spec for how vertical text is planned to be handled in a future version of Pango. The explanation of why pango.DIRECTION_TTB_LTR is treated as pango.DIRECTION_RTL can be found there as well. pango.DIRECTION_LTR A strong left-to-right direction pango.DIRECTION_RTL A strong right-to-left direction pango.DIRECTION_TTB_LTR Deprecated value; treated the same as pango.DIRECTION_RTL. pango.DIRECTION_TTB_RTL Deprecated value; treated the same as pango.DIRECTION_LTR pango.DIRECTION_WEAK_LTR A weak left-to-right direction pango.DIRECTION_WEAK_RTL A weak right-to-left direction pango.DIRECTION_NEUTRAL No direction specified The Ellipsize Mode constants specify what sort of (if any) ellipsization should be applied to a line of text. In the ellipsization process characters are removed from the text in order to make it fit to a given width and replaced with an ellipsis (...). pango.ELLIPSIZE_NONE No ellipsization. pango.ELLIPSIZE_START Omit characters at the start of the text. pango.ELLIPSIZE_MIDDLE Omit characters in the middle of the text. pango.ELLIPSIZE_END Omit characters at the end of the text. The Font Mask flag constants are bit-flags that correspond to fields in a pango.FontDescription that have been set. pango.FONT_MASK_FAMILY the font family is specified. pango.FONT_MASK_STYLE the font style is specified. pango.FONT_MASK_VARIANT the font variant is specified. pango.FONT_MASK_WEIGHT the font weight is specified. pango.FONT_MASK_STRETCH the font stretch is specified. pango.FONT_MASK_SIZE the font size is specified. pango.RENDER_PART The pango.RENDER_PART constants define different items to render for purposes such as setting colors. Available since PyGTK 2.8. pango.RENDER_PART_FOREGROUND The text itself. pango.RENDER_PART_BACKGROUND The area behind the text. pango.RENDER_PART_UNDERLINE The underlined areas. pango.RENDER_PART_STRIKETHROUGH The strikethrough areas. pango.SCALE The pango.SCALE constant represents the scale between dimensions used for Pango distances and device units. (The definition of device units is dependent on the output device; it will typically be pixels for a screen, and points for a printer.) pango.SCALE is currently 1024, but this may be changed in the future. When setting font sizes, device units are always considered to be points (as in "12 point font"), rather than pixels. pango.SCALE_XX_SMALL The scale factor for three shrinking steps (1 / (1.2 * 1.2 * 1.2)). pango.SCALE_X_SMALL The scale factor for two shrinking steps (1 / (1.2 * 1.2)). pango.SCALE_SMALL The scale factor for one shrinking step (1 / 1.2). pango.SCALE_MEDIUM The scale factor for normal size (1.0). pango.SCALE_LARGE The scale factor for one magnification step (1.2). pango.SCALE_X_LARGE he scale factor for two magnification steps (1.2 * 1.2). pango.SCALE_XX_LARGE The scale factor for three magnification steps (1.2 * 1.2 * 1.2). The Stretch constants specify the width of the font relative to other designs within a family. pango.STRETCH_ULTRA_CONDENSED The most narrow width pango.STRETCH_EXTRA_CONDENSED pango.STRETCH_CONDENSED pango.STRETCH_SEMI_CONDENSED pango.STRETCH_NORMAL The normal width. pango.STRETCH_SEMI_EXPANDED pango.STRETCH_EXPANDED pango.STRETCH_EXTRA_EXPANDED pango.STRETCH_ULTRA_EXPANDED The most expanded width The Style constants specify the various slant styles possible for a font. pango.STYLE_NORMAL The font is upright. pango.STYLE_OBLIQUE The font is slanted in a roman style. pango.STYLE_ITALIC The font is slanted in an italic style. The Tab constants specify where a tab stop appears relative to the text. pango.TAB_LEFT the tab stop appears to the left of the text. The Underline constants specify he type of underlining (if any) to be used. pango.UNDERLINE_NONE No underline should be drawn. pango.UNDERLINE_SINGLE A single underline should be drawn. pango.UNDERLINE_DOUBLE A double underline should be drawn. pango.UNDERLINE_LOW A single underline should be drawn at a position beneath the ink extents of the text being underlined. This should be used only for underlining single characters, such as for keyboard accelerators. pango.UNDERLINE_SINGLE should be used for extended portions of text. pango.UNDERLINE_ERROR a wavy underline should be drawn below. This underline is typically used to indicate an error such as a possilble mispelling; in some cases a contrasting color may automatically be used. This type of underlining is available since Pango 1.4. The Variant constants specify the capitalization variant of the font. pango.VARIANT_NORMAL A normal font. pango.VARIANT_SMALL_CAPS A font with the lower case characters replaced by smaller variants of the capital characters. The Weight constants specify the weight (boldness) of a font. This is a numerical value ranging from 100 to 900, but there are some predefined values: pango.WEIGHT_ULTRALIGHT The ultralight weight (= 200). pango.WEIGHT_LIGHT The light weight (=300). pango.WEIGHT_NORMAL The default weight (= 400). pango.WEIGHT_BOLD The bold weight (= 700). pango.WEIGHT_ULTRABOLD The ultrabold weight (= 800). pango.WEIGHT_HEAVY The heavy weight (= 900). The Wrap Mode constants specify how to wrap the lines of a pango.Layout to the desired width. pango.WRAP_WORD wrap lines at word boundaries. pango.WRAP_CHAR wrap lines at character boundaries. pango.WRAP_WORD_CHAR wrap lines at word boundaries, but fall back to character boundaries if there is not enough space for a full word.
