NAME

       Gtk2::Pango - constants for use with Pango

SYNOPSIS

         use Gtk2; # gets the actual Pango objects and methods

         use Gtk2::Pango; # load extra constants

DESCRIPTION

       To use Pango effectively, you need a few extra constants that are not supplied in normal
       ways by the type system or by other means.

       This module exports all of those extra constants when you load it.  They use the fully-
       prefixed names from the C documentation.

EXPORT

       PangoWeight is indeed defined as an enumerated type whose values can be used as nickname
       strings in the perl bindings, but in several places where a weight is needed, a gint is
       requested instead.  This is because PangoWeight is actually just a set of predefined
       values for an integer-valued property.  The PANGO_WEIGHT_* constants give you the
       predefined values:

               PANGO_WEIGHT_ULTRALIGHT
               PANGO_WEIGHT_LIGHT
               PANGO_WEIGHT_NORMAL
               PANGO_WEIGHT_BOLD
               PANGO_WEIGHT_ULTRABOLD
               PANGO_WEIGHT_HEAVY

       These are #defined in the C source, and thus are not available anywhere except here:

               PANGO_SCALE_XX_SMALL
               PANGO_SCALE_X_SMALL
               PANGO_SCALE_SMALL
               PANGO_SCALE_MEDIUM
               PANGO_SCALE_LARGE
               PANGO_SCALE_X_LARGE
               PANGO_SCALE_XX_LARGE

       PANGO_SCALE is needed to convert between Pango units and pixels.  It is also available as
       Gtk2::Pango->scale.

               PANGO_SCALE

BUGS

       This module shouldn't exist, but some parts of the API just aren't clean.

       This stuff is hardcoded directly from the headers of pango 1.2.1.
