set_text

Description:

public void set_text (string text, int length)

Sets the text of the layout.

This function validates text and renders invalid UTF-8 with a placeholder glyph.

Note that if you have used [[email protected]_markup] or [[email protected]_markup_with_accel] on this before, you may want to call [[email protected]_attributes] to clear the attributes set on the layout from the markup as this function does not clear attributes.

Parameters:

this	a `PangoLayout`
text	the text
length	maximum length of `text`, in bytes. -1 indicates that the string is nul-terminated and the length should be calculated. The text will also be truncated on encountering a nul-termination even when `length` is positive.
