Creation methods:

• public Context ()
  Creates a new `PangoContext` initialized to default values.

Methods:

• public void changed ()
  Forces a change in the context, which will cause any `PangoLayout` using this context to re-layout.
• public Direction get_base_dir ()
  Retrieves the base direction for the context.
• public Gravity get_base_gravity ()
  Retrieves the base gravity for the context.
• public unowned FontDescription get_font_description ()
  Retrieve the default font description for the context.
• public unowned FontMap get_font_map ()
  Gets the `PangoFontMap` used to look up fonts for this context.
• public Gravity get_gravity ()
  Retrieves the gravity for the context.
• public GravityHint get_gravity_hint ()
  Retrieves the gravity hint for the context.
• public Language get_language ()
  Retrieves the global language tag for the context.
• public unowned Matrix? get_matrix ()
  Gets the transformation matrix that will be applied when rendering with this context.
• public FontMetrics get_metrics (FontDescription? desc, Language? language)
  Get overall metric information for a particular font description.
• public bool get_round_glyph_positions ()
  Returns whether font rendering with this context should round glyph positions and widths.
• public uint get_serial ()
  Returns the current serial number of this .
• public void list_families (out (unowned FontFamily)[] families)
  List all families for a context.
• public Font? load_font (FontDescription desc)
  Loads the font in one of the fontmaps in the context that is the closest match for desc.
• public Fontset? load_fontset (FontDescription desc, Language language)
  Load a set of fonts in the context that can be used to render a font matching desc.
• public void set_base_dir (Direction direction)
  Sets the base direction for the context.
• public void set_base_gravity (Gravity gravity)
  Sets the base gravity for the context.
• public void set_font_description (FontDescription desc)
  Set the default font description for the context
• public void set_font_map (FontMap font_map)
  Sets the font map to be searched when fonts are looked-up in this context.
• public void set_gravity_hint (GravityHint hint)
  Sets the gravity hint for the context.
• public void set_language (Language language)
  Sets the global language tag for the context.
• public void set_matrix (Matrix? matrix)
  Sets the transformation matrix that will be applied when rendering with this context.
• public void set_round_glyph_positions (bool round_positions)
  Sets whether font rendering with this context should round glyph positions and widths to integral positions, in device units.
