Lambda List

pango:layout-line-spacing (layout)

Syntax

(pango:layout-line-spacing layout) => factor
(setf (pango:layout-line-spacing layout) factor)

Arguments

layout -- a pango:layout object
factor -- a number coerced to a single float for the new line spacing factor

Details

The pango:layout-line-spacing function gets the value of the line spacing. The (setf pango:layout-line-spacing) function sets a factor for line spacing. Typical values are: 0, 1, 1.5, 2. The default values is 0.

If the factor argument is non-zero, lines are placed so that
baseline2 = baseline1 + factor * height2  
where height2 is the line height of the second line as determined by the font. In this case, the spacing set with the pango:layout-spacing function is ignored.

If the factor argument is zero, spacing is applied as before.
