## Object Hierarchy

      GObject
       +----PangoLayout

## Description

While complete access to the layout capabilities of Pango is provided using the detailed interfaces for itemization and shaping, using that functionality directly involves writing a fairly large amount of code. The objects and functions in this section provide a high-level driver for formatting entire paragraphs of text at once.

## Details

### PangoLayout

    typedef struct _PangoLayout PangoLayout;

The PangoLayout structure represents an entire paragraph of text. It is initialized with a PangoContext, UTF-8 string and set of attributes for that string. Once that is done, the set of formatted lines can be extracted from the object, the layout can be rendered, and conversion between logical character positions within the layout's text, and the physical position of the resulting glyphs can be made.

There are also a number of parameters to adjust the formatting of a PangoLayout, which are illustrated in Figure 1, “Adjustable parameters for a PangoLayout”. It is possible, as well, to ignore the 2-D setup, and simply treat the results of a PangoLayout as a list of lines.

Figure 1. Adjustable parameters for a PangoLayout

The PangoLayout structure is opaque, and has no user-visible fields.

### PangoLayoutIter

    typedef struct _PangoLayoutIter PangoLayoutIter;

A PangoLayoutIter structure can be used to iterate over the visual extents of a PangoLayout.

The PangoLayoutIter structure is opaque, and has no user-visible fields.

### pango_layout_new ()

    PangoLayout*        pango_layout_new                    (PangoContext *context);

Create a new PangoLayout object with attributes initialized to default values for a particular PangoContext.

`context` : | a PangoContext
Returns : | the newly allocated PangoLayout, with a reference count of one, which should be freed with `g_object_unref()`.

### pango_layout_copy ()

    PangoLayout*        pango_layout_copy                   (PangoLayout *src);

Does a deep copy-by-value of the `src` layout. The attribute list, tab array, and text from the original layout are all copied by value.

`src` : | a PangoLayout
Returns : | the newly allocated PangoLayout, with a reference count of one, which should be freed with `g_object_unref()`.

### pango_layout_get_context ()

    PangoContext*       pango_layout_get_context            (PangoLayout *layout);

Retrieves the PangoContext used for this layout.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
Returns : | the PangoContext for the layout. This does not have an additional refcount added, so if you want to keep a copy of this around, you must reference it yourself.

### pango_layout_context_changed ()

    void                pango_layout_context_changed        (PangoLayout *layout);

Forces recomputation of any state in the PangoLayout that might depend on the layout's context. This function should be called if you make changes to the context subsequent to creating the layout.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout

### pango_layout_set_text ()

    void                pango_layout_set_text               (PangoLayout *layout,
                                                             const char *text,
                                                             int length);

Sets the text of the layout.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`text` : | a valid UTF-8 string
`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.

### pango_layout_get_text ()

    const char*         pango_layout_get_text               (PangoLayout *layout);

Gets the text in the layout. The returned text should not be freed or modified.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
Returns : | the text in the `layout`.

### pango_layout_set_markup ()

    void                pango_layout_set_markup             (PangoLayout *layout,
                                                             const char *markup,
                                                             int length);

Same as `pango_layout_set_markup_with_accel()`, but the markup text isn't scanned for accelerators.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`markup` : | marked-up text
`length` : | length of marked-up text in bytes, or -1 if `markup` is nul-terminated

### pango_layout_set_markup_with_accel ()

    void                pango_layout_set_markup_with_accel  (PangoLayout *layout,
                                                             const char *markup,
                                                             int length,
                                                             gunichar accel_marker,
                                                             gunichar *accel_char);

Sets the layout text and attribute list from marked-up text (see markup format). Replaces the current text and attribute list.

If `accel_marker` is nonzero, the given character will mark the character following it as an accelerator. For example, `accel_marker` might be an ampersand or underscore. All characters marked as an accelerator will receive a `PANGO_UNDERLINE_LOW` attribute, and the first character so marked will be returned in `accel_char`. Two `accel_marker` characters following each other produce a single literal `accel_marker` character.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`markup` : | marked-up text (see markup format)
`length` : | length of marked-up text in bytes, or -1 if `markup` is nul-terminated
`accel_marker` : | marker for accelerators in the text
`accel_char` : | return location for first located accelerator, or `NULL`

### pango_layout_set_attributes ()

    void                pango_layout_set_attributes         (PangoLayout *layout,
                                                             PangoAttrList *attrs);

Sets the text attributes for a layout object. References `attrs`, so the caller can unref its reference.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`attrs` : | a PangoAttrList

### pango_layout_get_attributes ()

    PangoAttrList*      pango_layout_get_attributes         (PangoLayout *layout);

Gets the attribute list for the layout, if any.

                                                             const PangoFontDescription *desc);

Sets the default font description for the layout. If no font description is set on the layout, the font description from the layout's context is used.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`desc` : | the new PangoFontDescription, or `NULL` to unset the current font description

### pango_layout_get_font_description ()

    const PangoFontDescription* pango_layout_get_font_description
                                                            (PangoLayout *layout);

Gets the font description for the layout, if any.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
Returns : | a pointer to the layout's font description, or `NULL` if the font description from the layout's context is inherited. This value is owned by the layout and must not be modified or freed.

Since 1.8

Sets the wrap mode; the wrap mode only has effect if a width is set on the layout with `pango_layout_set_width()`. To turn off wrapping, set the width to -1.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`wrap` : | the wrap mode

### pango_layout_get_wrap ()

    PangoWrapMode       pango_layout_get_wrap               (PangoLayout *layout);

Gets the wrap mode for the layout.

Use `pango_layout_is_wrapped()` to query whether any paragraphs were actually wrapped.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
Returns : | active wrap mode.

### pango_layout_is_wrapped ()

    gboolean            pango_layout_is_wrapped             (PangoLayout *layout);

Queries whether the layout had to wrap any paragraphs.

This returns `TRUE` if a positive width is set on `layout`, ellipsization mode of `layout` is set to `PANGO_ELLIPSIZE_NONE`, and there are paragraphs exceeding the layout width that have to be wrapped.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
Returns : | `TRUE` if any paragraphs had to be wrapped, `FALSE` otherwise.

Since 1.16

### enum PangoWrapMode

    typedef enum {
      PANGO_WRAP_WORD,
      PANGO_WRAP_CHAR,
      PANGO_WRAP_WORD_CHAR
    } PangoWrapMode;

`PANGO_WRAP_WORD` | wrap lines at word boundaries.
`PANGO_WRAP_CHAR` | wrap lines at character boundaries.
`PANGO_WRAP_WORD_CHAR` | wrap lines at word boundaries, but fall back to character boundaries if there is not enough space for a full word.

### PANGO_TYPE_WRAP_MODE

    #define PANGO_TYPE_WRAP_MODE (pango_wrap_mode_get_type())

The GObject type for PangoWrapMode.

### pango_layout_set_ellipsize ()

Sets the type of ellipsization being performed for `layout`. Depending on the ellipsization mode `ellipsize` text is removed from the start, middle, or end of lines so they fit within the width of layout set with `pango_layout_set_width()`.

If the layout contains characters such as newlines that force it to be layed out in multiple lines, then each line is ellipsized separately.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`ellipsize` : | the new ellipsization mode for `layout`

Since 1.6

### pango_layout_get_ellipsize ()

    PangoEllipsizeMode  pango_layout_get_ellipsize          (PangoLayout *layout);

Gets the type of ellipsization being performed for `layout`. See `pango_layout_set_ellipsize()`

This returns `TRUE` if the ellipsization mode for `layout` is not `PANGO_ELLIPSIZE_NONE`, a positive width is set on `layout`, and there are paragraphs exceeding that width that have to be ellipsized.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
Returns : | `TRUE` if any paragraphs had to be ellipsized, `FALSE` otherwise.

Since 1.16

### enum PangoEllipsizeMode

    typedef enum {

      PANGO_ELLIPSIZE_END
    } PangoEllipsizeMode;

The PangoEllipsizeMode type describes what sort of (if any) ellipsization should be applied to a line of text. In the ellipsization process characters are removed from the text in order to make it fit to a given width and replaced with an ellipsis.

`PANGO_ELLIPSIZE_NONE` | No ellipsization
`PANGO_ELLIPSIZE_START` | Omit characters at the start of the text
`PANGO_ELLIPSIZE_MIDDLE` | Omit characters in the middle of the text

Sets the width in Pango units to indent each paragraph. A negative value of `indent` will produce a hanging indentation. That is, the first line will have the full width, and subsequent lines will be indented by the absolute value of `indent`.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout.
`indent` : | the amount by which to indent.

### pango_layout_get_indent ()

    int                 pango_layout_get_indent             (PangoLayout *layout);

Sets whether each complete line should be stretched to fill the entire width of the layout. This stretching is typically done by adding whitespace, but for some scripts (such as Arabic), the justification may be done in more complex ways, like extending the characters.

Note that this setting is not implemented and so is ignored in Pango older than 1.18.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`justify` : | whether the lines in the layout should be justified.

### pango_layout_get_justify ()

    gboolean            pango_layout_get_justify            (PangoLayout *layout);

Sets whether to calculate the bidirectional base direction for the layout according to the contents of the layout; when this flag is on (the default), then paragraphs in `layout` that begin with strong right-to-left characters (Arabic and Hebrew principally), will have right-to-left layout, paragraphs with letters from other scripts will have left-to-right layout. Paragraphs with only neutral characters get their direction from the surrounding paragraphs.

When `FALSE`, the choice between left-to-right and right-to-left layout is done according to the base direction of the layout's PangoContext. (See `pango_context_set_base_dir()`).

When the auto-computed direction of a paragraph differs from the base direction of the context, the interpretation of `PANGO_ALIGN_LEFT` and `PANGO_ALIGN_RIGHT` are swapped.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`auto_dir` : | if `TRUE`, compute the bidirectional base direction from the layout's contents.

Since 1.4

### pango_layout_get_auto_dir ()

    gboolean            pango_layout_get_auto_dir           (PangoLayout *layout);

Gets whether to calculate the bidirectional base direction for the layout according to the contents of the layout. See `pango_layout_set_auto_dir()`.

Sets the tabs to use for `layout`, overriding the default tabs (by default, tabs are every 8 spaces). If `tabs` is `NULL`, the default tabs are reinstated. `tabs` is copied into the layout; you must free your copy of `tabs` yourself.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`tabs` : | a PangoTabArray

### pango_layout_get_tabs ()

    PangoTabArray*      pango_layout_get_tabs               (PangoLayout *layout);

A PangoAlignment describes how to align the lines of a PangoLayout within the available space. If the PangoLayout is set to justify using `pango_layout_set_justify()`, this only has effect for partial lines.

`PANGO_ALIGN_LEFT` | Put all available space on the right
`PANGO_ALIGN_CENTER` | Center the line within the available space
`PANGO_ALIGN_RIGHT` | Put all available space on the left

### PANGO_TYPE_ALIGNMENT

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
Returns : | The number of unknown glyphs in `layout`.

Since 1.16

### pango_layout_get_log_attrs ()

    void                pango_layout_get_log_attrs          (PangoLayout *layout,

Retrieves an array of logical attributes for each character in the `layout`.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`attrs` : | location to store a pointer to an array of logical attributes This value must be freed with `g_free()`.
`n_attrs` : | location to store the number of the attributes in the array. (The stored value will be one more than the total number of characters in the layout, since there need to be attributes corresponding to both the position before the first character and the position after the last character.)

### pango_layout_index_to_pos ()

    void                pango_layout_index_to_pos           (PangoLayout *layout,

Converts from an index within a PangoLayout to the onscreen position corresponding to the grapheme at that index, which is represented as rectangle. Note that `pos->x` is always the leading edge of the grapheme and `pos->x + pos->width` the trailing edge of the grapheme. If the directionality of the grapheme is right-to-left, then `pos->width` will be negative.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`index_` : | byte index within `layout`
`pos` : | rectangle in which to store the position of the grapheme

### pango_layout_index_to_line_x ()

    void                pango_layout_index_to_line_x        (PangoLayout *layout,
                                                             int index_,

Converts from byte `index_` within the `layout` to line and X position. (X position is measured from the left edge of the line)

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`index_` : | the byte index of a grapheme within the layout.
`trailing` : | an integer indicating the edge of the grapheme to retrieve the position of. If 0, the trailing edge of the grapheme, if > 0, the leading of the grapheme.
`line` : | location to store resulting line index. (which will between 0 and pango_layout_get_line_count(layout) - 1)
`x_pos` : | location to store resulting position within line (`PANGO_SCALE` units per device unit)

### pango_layout_xy_to_index ()

    gboolean            pango_layout_xy_to_index            (PangoLayout *layout,
                                                             int x,

                                                             int *trailing);

Converts from X and Y position within a layout to the byte index to the character at that logical position. If the Y position is not inside the layout, the closest position is chosen (the position will be clamped inside the layout). If the X position is not within the layout, then the start or the end of the line is chosen as described for `pango_layout_x_to_index()`. If either the X or Y positions were not inside the layout, then the function returns `FALSE`; on an exact hit, it returns `TRUE`.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`x` : | the X offset (in PangoGlyphUnit) from the left edge of the layout.
`y` : | the Y offset (in PangoGlyphUnit) from the top edge of the layout
`index_` : | location to store calculated byte index
`trailing` : | location to store a integer indicating where in the grapheme the user clicked. It will either be zero, or the number of characters in the grapheme. 0 represents the trailing edge of the grapheme.
Returns : | `TRUE` if the coordinates were inside text, `FALSE` otherwise.

### pango_layout_get_cursor_pos ()

    void                pango_layout_get_cursor_pos         (PangoLayout *layout,
                                                             int index_,
                                                             PangoRectangle *strong_pos,
                                                             PangoRectangle *weak_pos);

Given an index within a layout, determines the positions that of the strong and weak cursors if the insertion point is at that index. The position of each cursor is stored as a zero-width rectangle. The strong cursor location is the location where characters of the directionality equal to the base direction of the layout are inserted. The weak cursor location is the location where characters of the directionality opposite to the base direction of the layout are inserted.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`index_` : | the byte index of the cursor
`strong_pos` : | location to store the strong cursor position (may be `NULL`)
`weak_pos` : | location to store the weak cursor position (may be `NULL`)

### pango_layout_move_cursor_visually ()

    void                pango_layout_move_cursor_visually   (PangoLayout *layout,
                                                             gboolean strong,
                                                             int old_index,
                                                             int old_trailing,
                                                             int direction,
                                                             int *new_index,
                                                             int *new_trailing);

Computes a new cursor position from an old position and a count of positions to move visually. If `direction` is positive, then the new strong cursor position will be one position to the right of the old cursor position. If `direction` is negative, then the new strong cursor position will be one position to the left of the old cursor position.

In the presence of bidirectional text, the correspondence between logical and visual order will depend on the direction of the current run, and there may be jumps when the cursor is moved off of the end of a run.

Motion here is in cursor positions, not in characters, so a single call to `pango_layout_move_cursor_visually()` may move the cursor over multiple characters when multiple characters combine to form a single grapheme.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout.
`strong` : | whether the moving cursor is the strong cursor or the weak cursor. The strong cursor is the cursor corresponding to text insertion in the base direction for the layout.
`old_index` : | the byte index of the grapheme for the old index
`old_trailing` : | if 0, the cursor was at the trailing edge of the grapheme indicated by `old_index`, if > 0, the cursor was at the leading edge.
`direction` : | direction to move cursor. A negative value indicates motion to the left.
`new_index` : | location to store the new cursor byte index. A value of -1 indicates that the cursor has been moved off the beginning of the layout. A value of `G_MAXINT` indicates that the cursor has been moved off the end of the layout.
`new_trailing` : | number of characters to move forward from the location returned for `new_index` to get the position where the cursor should be displayed. This allows distinguishing the position at the beginning of one line from the position at the end of the preceding line. `new_index` is always on the line where the cursor should be displayed.

### pango_layout_get_extents ()

    void                pango_layout_get_extents            (PangoLayout *layout,

                                                             PangoRectangle *logical_rect);

Computes the logical and ink extents of `layout`. Logical extents are usually what you want for positioning things. Note that both extents may have non-zero x and y. You may want to use those to offset where you render the layout. Not doing that is a very typical bug that shows up as right-to-left layouts not being correctly positioned in a layout with a set width.

The extents are given in layout coordinates and in Pango units; layout coordinates begin at the top left corner of the layout.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`ink_rect` : | rectangle used to store the extents of the layout as drawn or `NULL` to indicate that the result is not needed.
`logical_rect` : | rectangle used to store the logical extents of the layout or `NULL` to indicate that the result is not needed.

### pango_layout_get_pixel_extents ()

    void                pango_layout_get_pixel_extents      (PangoLayout *layout,
                                                             PangoRectangle *ink_rect,
                                                             PangoRectangle *logical_rect);

Computes the logical and ink extents of `layout` in device units. This function just calls `pango_layout_get_extents()` followed by `pango_extents_to_pixels()`.

See `pango_extents_to_pixels()` for details of how ink and logical rectangles are rounded to pixels. In certain situations you may want to use `pango_layout_get_extents()` directly and pass the resulting logical rectangle to `pango_extents_to_pixels()` as an ink `rectangle()`.

`layout` : | a PangoLayout
`ink_rect` : | rectangle used to store the extents of the layout as drawn or `NULL` to indicate that the result is not needed.
`logical_rect` : | rectangle used to store the logical extents of the layout or `NULL` to indicate that the result is not needed.

### pango_layout_iter_get_line_yrange ()

    void                pango_layout_iter_get_line_yrange   (PangoLayoutIter *iter,
                                                             int *y0_,

Divides the vertical space in the PangoLayout being iterated over between the lines in the layout, and returns the space belonging to the current line. A line's range includes the line's logical extents, plus half of the spacing above and below the line, if `pango_layout_set_spacing()` has been called to set layout spacing. The Y positions are in layout coordinates (origin at top left of the entire layout).

`iter` : | a PangoLayoutIter
`y0_` : | start of line
`y1_` : | end of line

### pango_layout_iter_get_line_extents ()

    void                pango_layout_iter_get_line_extents  (PangoLayoutIter *iter,
                                                             PangoRectangle *ink_rect,

Obtains the extents of the current line. `ink_rect` or `logical_rect` can be `NULL` if you aren't interested in them. Extents are in layout coordinates (origin is the top-left corner of the entire PangoLayout). Thus the extents returned by this function will be the same width/height but not at the same x/y as the extents returned from `pango_layout_line_get_extents()`.

`iter` : | a PangoLayoutIter
`ink_rect` : | rectangle to fill with ink extents, or `NULL`
`logical_rect` : | rectangle to fill with logical extents, or `NULL`

### pango_layout_iter_get_layout_extents ()

### PangoLayoutLine

    typedef struct {
      PangoLayout *layout;
      gint         start_index;     /* start of line as byte index into layout->text */
      gint         length;		/* length of line in bytes */
      GSList      *runs;
      guint        is_paragraph_start : 1;  /* TRUE if this is the first line of the paragraph */
      guint        resolved_dir : 3;  /* Resolved PangoDirection of line */
    } PangoLayoutLine;

The PangoLayoutLine structure represents one of the lines resulting from laying out a paragraph via PangoLayout. PangoLayoutLine structures are obtained by calling `pango_layout_get_line()` and are only valid until the text, attributes, or settings of the parent PangoLayout are modified.

Routines for rendering PangoLayout objects are provided in code specific to each rendering system.

PangoLayout *`layout`; | the parent layout for this line
gint `start_index`; | the start of the line as byte index into `layout->text`
gint `length`; | the length of the line in bytes
GSList *`runs`; | a list containing the runs of the line in visual order
guint `is_paragraph_start` : 1; | `TRUE` if this is the first line of the paragraph
guint `resolved_dir` : 3; | the resolved PangoDirection of the line

### PangoLayoutRun

    typedef PangoGlyphItem PangoLayoutRun;

The PangoLayoutRun structure represents a single run within a PangoLayoutLine; it is simply an alternate name for PangoGlyphItem. See the PangoGlyphItem docs for details on the fields.

### pango_layout_line_ref ()

    PangoLayoutLine*    pango_layout_line_ref               (PangoLayoutLine *line);

Increase the reference count of a PangoLayoutLine by one.

`line` : | a PangoLayoutLine, may be `NULL`
Returns : | the line passed in.

Since 1.10

### pango_layout_line_unref ()

    void                pango_layout_line_unref             (PangoLayoutLine *line);

Decrease the reference count of a PangoLayoutLine by one. If the result is zero, the line and all associated memory will be freed.

`line` : | a PangoLayoutLine

### pango_layout_line_get_extents ()

    void                pango_layout_line_get_extents       (PangoLayoutLine *line,
                                                             PangoRectangle *ink_rect,
                                                             PangoRectangle *logical_rect);

Computes the logical and ink extents of a layout line. See `pango_font_get_glyph_extents()` for details about the interpretation of the rectangles.

`line` : | a PangoLayoutLine
`ink_rect` : | rectangle used to store the extents of the glyph string as drawn, or `NULL`
`logical_rect` : | rectangle used to store the logical extents of the glyph string, or `NULL`

### pango_layout_line_get_pixel_extents ()

    void                pango_layout_line_get_pixel_extents (PangoLayoutLine *layout_line,
                                                             PangoRectangle *ink_rect,
                                                             PangoRectangle *logical_rect);

Computes the logical and ink extents of `layout_line` in device units. This function just calls `pango_layout_line_get_extents()` followed by `pango_extents_to_pixels()`.

`layout_line` : | a PangoLayoutLine
`ink_rect` : | rectangle used to store the extents of the glyph string as drawn, or `NULL`
`logical_rect` : | rectangle used to store the logical extents of the glyph string, or `NULL`

### pango_layout_line_index_to_x ()

    void                pango_layout_line_index_to_x        (PangoLayoutLine *line,
                                                             int index_,
                                                             gboolean trailing,
                                                             int *x_pos);

Converts an index within a line to a X position.

`line` : | a PangoLayoutLine
`index_` : | byte offset of a grapheme within the layout
`trailing` : | an integer indicating the edge of the grapheme to retrieve the position of. If > 0, the trailing edge of the grapheme, if 0, the leading of the grapheme.
`x_pos` : | location to store the x_offset (in PangoGlyphUnit)

### pango_layout_line_x_to_index ()

    gboolean            pango_layout_line_x_to_index        (PangoLayoutLine *line,
                                                             int x_pos,
                                                             int *index_,
                                                             int *trailing);

Converts from x offset to the byte index of the corresponding character within the text of the layout. If `x_pos` is outside the line, `index_` and `trailing` will point to the very first or very last position in the line. This determination is based on the resolved direction of the paragraph; for example, if the resolved direction is right-to-left, then an X position to the right of the line (after it) results in 0 being stored in `index_` and `trailing`. An X position to the left of the line results in `index_` pointing to the (logical) last grapheme in the line and `trailing` being set to the number of characters in that grapheme. The reverse is true for a left-to-right line.

`line` : | a PangoLayoutLine
`x_pos` : | the X offset (in PangoGlyphUnit) from the left edge of the line.
`index_` : | location to store calculated byte index for the grapheme in which the user clicked.
`trailing` : | location to store an integer indicating where in the grapheme the user clicked. It will either be zero, or the number of characters in the grapheme. 0 represents the leading edge of the grapheme.
Returns : | `FALSE` if `x_pos` was outside the line, `TRUE` if inside

### pango_layout_line_get_x_ranges ()

    void                pango_layout_line_get_x_ranges      (PangoLayoutLine *line,
                                                             int start_index,
                                                             int end_index,
                                                             int **ranges,
                                                             int *n_ranges);

Gets a list of visual ranges corresponding to a given logical range. This list is not necessarily minimal - there may be consecutive ranges which are adjacent. The ranges will be sorted from left to right. The ranges are with respect to the left edge of the entire layout, not with respect to the line.

`line` : | a PangoLayoutLine
`start_index` : | Start byte index of the logical range. If this value is less than the start index for the line, then the first range will extend all the way to the leading edge of the layout. Otherwise it will start at the leading edge of the first character.
`end_index` : | Ending byte index of the logical range. If this value is greater than the end index for the line, then the last range will extend all the way to the trailing edge of the layout. Otherwise, it will end at the trailing edge of the last character.
`ranges` : | location to store a pointer to an array of ranges. The array will be of length `2*n_ranges`, with each range starting at `(*ranges)[2*n]` and of width `(*ranges)[2*n + 1] - (*ranges)[2*n]`. This array must be freed with `g_free()`. The coordinates are relative to the layout and are in PangoGlyphUnit.
`n_ranges` : | The number of ranges stored in `ranges`.
