NAME

       Graphics::Primitive::Driver::TextLayout - TextLayout role

DESCRIPTION

       Graphics::Primitive::Driver::TextLayout is a role for Driver text layout engines.

SYNOPSIS

           package MyLayout;
           use Moose;

           with 'Graphics::Primitive::Driver::TextLayout';

           ...

METHODS

       component
           Set/Get the component from which to draw layout information.

       height
           Set/Get this layout's height

       slice
           Implemented by role consumer. Given an offset and an optional size, returns a TextBox
           containing lines from this layout that come as close to $size without exceeding it.
           This method is provided to allow incremental rendering of text.  For example, if you
           have a series of containers 80 units high, you might write code like this:

             for(my $i = 0; $i < 3; $i++) {
                 $textbox = $layout->slice($i * 80, 80);
                 # render the text
             }

       width
           Set/Get this layout's width.  Defaults to the width of the component supplied.
