Re: Text location with pango

Pango::Layout::property_width() should fix it, and for the size problem you could set a size attribute: http://www.gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/reference/html/classPango_1_1Attribute.html#3a0416112eb702fbf57af03b5fc09842

When drawing to a drawing area 1024x768 pixels using Pango and Cairo, I am having trouble getting the text centered within the whole window and changing the font size.

I am trying to center it with:

pangoLayout -> set_alignment(Pango::ALIGN_CENTER);

which centers it to the width of the longest line in the layout, not the whole width. set_width(1024) or any other number results in half of thext being off the left hand side of the window

I have been using set_size() on the FontDescription, but his makes no change, although the font does change when set_family() is used.

And help/suggestion would be appreciated
