Declaration [src]

void
pango_layout_set_tabs (
  PangoLayout* layout,

)

Description [src]

Sets the tabs to use for layout, overriding the default tabs.

PangoLayout will place content at the next tab position whenever it meets a Tab character (U+0009).

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.

Note that tabs and justification conflict with each other: Justification will move content away from its tab-aligned positions. The same is true for alignments other than PANGO_ALIGN_LEFT.
