## Description

PangoRenderer is a base class that contains the necessary logic for rendering a PangoLayout or PangoLayoutLine. By subclassing PangoRenderer and overriding operations such as `draw_glyphs` and `draw_rectangle` , renderers for particular font backends and destinations can be created.

## Functions

### pango_renderer_draw_layout ()

    void
    pango_renderer_draw_layout (PangoRenderer *renderer,
                                PangoLayout *layout,
                                int x,
                                int y);

Draws `layout` with the specified PangoRenderer.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |
layout | a PangoLayout |
x | X position of left edge of baseline, in user space coordinates in Pango units. |
y | Y position of left edge of baseline, in user space coordinates in Pango units. |

Since: 1.8

### pango_renderer_draw_layout_line ()

    void
    pango_renderer_draw_layout_line (PangoRenderer *renderer,
                                     PangoLayoutLine *line,
                                     int x,
                                     int y);

Draws `line` with the specified PangoRenderer.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |
line | a PangoLayoutLine |
x | X position of left edge of baseline, in user space coordinates in Pango units. |
y | Y position of left edge of baseline, in user space coordinates in Pango units. |

Since: 1.8

### pango_renderer_draw_glyphs ()

    void
    pango_renderer_draw_glyphs (PangoRenderer *renderer,
                                PangoFont *font,
                                PangoGlyphString *glyphs,
                                int x,
                                int y);

Draws the glyphs in `glyphs` with the specified PangoRenderer.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |
font | a PangoFont |
glyphs | a PangoGlyphString |
x | X position of left edge of baseline, in user space coordinates in Pango units. |
y | Y position of left edge of baseline, in user space coordinates in Pango units. |

Since: 1.8

### pango_renderer_draw_glyph_item ()

    void
    pango_renderer_draw_glyph_item (PangoRenderer *renderer,
                                    const char *text,
                                    PangoGlyphItem *glyph_item,
                                    int x,
                                    int y);

Draws the glyphs in `glyph_item` with the specified PangoRenderer, embedding the text associated with the glyphs in the output if the output format supports it (PDF for example).

Note that `text` is the start of the text for layout, which is then indexed by ``glyph_item->item->offset`` .

If `text` is `NULL`, this simply calls `pango_renderer_draw_glyphs()`.

The default implementation of this method simply falls back to `pango_renderer_draw_glyphs()`.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |
text | the UTF-8 text that `glyph_item` refers to, or `NULL`. | [allow-none]
glyph_item | a PangoGlyphItem |
x | X position of left edge of baseline, in user space coordinates in Pango units. |
y | Y position of left edge of baseline, in user space coordinates in Pango units. |

### pango_renderer_activate ()

    void
    pango_renderer_activate (PangoRenderer *renderer);

Does initial setup before rendering operations on `renderer` . `pango_renderer_deactivate()` should be called when done drawing. Calls such as `pango_renderer_draw_layout()` automatically activate the layout before drawing on it. Calls to `pango_renderer_activate()` and `pango_renderer_deactivate()` can be nested and the renderer will only be initialized and deinitialized once.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |

Since: 1.8

### pango_renderer_deactivate ()

    void
    pango_renderer_deactivate (PangoRenderer *renderer);

Cleans up after rendering operations on `renderer` . See docs for `pango_renderer_activate()`.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |

Since: 1.8

### pango_renderer_part_changed ()

    void
    pango_renderer_part_changed (PangoRenderer *renderer,
                                 PangoRenderPart part);

Informs Pango that the way that the rendering is done for `part` has changed in a way that would prevent multiple pieces being joined together into one drawing call. For instance, if a subclass of PangoRenderer was to add a stipple option for drawing underlines, it needs to call

    1

    pango_renderer_part_changed (render, PANGO_RENDER_PART_UNDERLINE);

When the stipple changes or underlines with different stipples might be joined together. Pango automatically calls this for changes to colors. (See `pango_renderer_set_color()`)

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |
part | the part for which rendering has changed. |

Since: 1.8

### pango_renderer_set_color ()

    void
    pango_renderer_set_color (PangoRenderer *renderer,
                              PangoRenderPart part,
                              const PangoColor *color);

Sets the color for part of the rendering. Also see `pango_renderer_set_alpha()`.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |
part | the part to change the color of |
color | the new color or `NULL` to unset the current color. | [allow-none]

Since: 1.8

### pango_renderer_get_color ()

    PangoColor *
    pango_renderer_get_color (PangoRenderer *renderer,
                              PangoRenderPart part);

Gets the current rendering color for the specified part.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |
part | the part to get the color for |

#### Returns

the color for the specified part, or `NULL` if it hasn't been set and should be inherited from the environment.

    void
    pango_renderer_set_alpha (PangoRenderer *renderer,
                              PangoRenderPart part,
                              guint16 alpha);

Sets the alpha for part of the rendering. Note that the alpha may only be used if a color is specified for `part` as well.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |
part | the part to set the alpha for |
alpha | an alpha value between 1 and 65536, or 0 to unset the alpha |

Since: 1.38

### pango_renderer_get_alpha ()

    guint16
    pango_renderer_get_alpha (PangoRenderer *renderer,
                              PangoRenderPart part);

Gets the current alpha for the specified part.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |
part | the part to get the alpha for |

#### Returns

the alpha for the specified part, or 0 if it hasn't been set and should be inherited from the environment.

Since: 1.38

### pango_renderer_set_matrix ()

    void
    pango_renderer_set_matrix (PangoRenderer *renderer,
                               const PangoMatrix *matrix);

Sets the transformation matrix that will be applied when rendering.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |
matrix | a PangoMatrix, or `NULL` to unset any existing matrix. (No matrix set is the same as setting the identity matrix.). | [allow-none]

Since: 1.8

### pango_renderer_get_matrix ()

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |

#### Returns

the matrix, or `NULL` if no matrix has been set (which is the same as the identity matrix). The returned matrix is owned by Pango and must not be modified or freed.

[nullable]

Since: 1.8

### pango_renderer_get_layout ()

    PangoLayout *
    pango_renderer_get_layout (PangoRenderer *renderer);

The returned layout line should not be modified while still being rendered.

#### Parameters

renderer | a PangoRenderer |

#### Returns

the layout line, or `NULL` if no layout line is being rendered using `renderer` at this time.

[transfer none][nullable]

Since: 1.20
