get_pango_context


Description:

public unowned Context get_pango_context ()

Gets a `PangoContext` that is configured for the widget.

The `PangoContext` will have the appropriate font map, font description, and base direction set.

Unlike the context returned by [method@Gtk.Widget.create_pango_context], this context is owned by the widget (it can be used until the screen for the widget changes or the widget is removed from its toplevel), and will be updated to match any changes to the widget’s attributes. This can be tracked by listening to changes of the [property@Gtk.Widget:root] property on the widget.

Parameters:

this

a widget

Returns:

the `PangoContext` for the widget
