Methods

• FontFace (Handle = null)

  Creates a new FontFace by wrapping a native handle or another wrapper.

  • @p Handle is the native handle or another wrapper whose handle to adopt.

• toNativeHandle (Source)

  Normalizes a constructor argument into a raw pointer carrier. Accepts a raw NativeHandle, a raw NativeBuffer returned from fn.call(...), another generated wrapper exposing handle(), or null. Returns null when the argument carries no pointer.

  • @p Source is the raw handle, raw buffer, wrapper, or null.
  • @r A raw pointer carrier or null when no pointer is present.

• getLib ()

  Returns the opened native library for this generated wrapper.

  • @r The opened native library.

• handle ()

  Returns the wrapped NativeHandle.

  • @r The wrapped NativeHandle.

• isNull ()

  Returns true when the wrapped handle is null.

  • @r A bool.

• describe ()

  Returns a small string for debugging generated wrappers.

  • @r A string.

• asObject ()

  Wraps this handle as Object.

  • @r A Object object.

• FnDescribe ()

  Returns a font description that matches the face. The resulting font description will have the family, style, variant, weight and stretch of the face, but its size field will be unset.

• get_face_name ()

  Gets a name representing the style of this face. Note that a font family may contain multiple faces with the same name (e.g. a variable and a non-variable face for the same style).

• get_family ()

  Gets the PangoFontFamily that @face belongs to.

• is_synthesized ()

  Returns whether a PangoFontFace is synthesized. This will be the case if the underlying font rendering engine creates this face from another face, by shearing, emboldening, lightening or modifying it in some other way.
