	new Pango.FontDescription.c_new () : Pango.FontDescription Create a new Pango.FontDescription Create a new Pango.FontDescription Returns: Pango.FontDescription
	better_match (FontDescription *old_match, FontDescription new_match) : Boolean Determines if the style attributes of new_match* are a closer match for desc than those of old_match are, or if old_match is NULL, determines if new_match is a match at all. Determines if the style attributes of new_match are a closer match for desc than those of old_match are, or if old_match is NULL, determines if new_match is a match at all. Approximate matching is done for weight and style; other style attributes must match exactly. Style attributes are all attributes other than family and size-related attributes. Approximate matching for style considers PANGO_STYLE_OBLIQUE and PANGO_STYLE_ITALIC as matches, but not as good a match as when the styles are equal. Note that old_match must match desc. Parameters: Pango.FontDescription old_match Required (not null) Pango.FontDescription new_match Required (not null) Returns: Boolean	Pango.FontDescription
	copy () : Pango.FontDescription Make a copy of a PangoFontDescription. Make a copy of a PangoFontDescription. be freed with pango_font_description_free(), or NULL if desc was NULL. Returns: Pango.FontDescription	Pango.FontDescription
	copy_static () : Pango.FontDescription Like pango_font_description_copy(), but only a shallow copy is made of the family name and other allocated fields. Like pango_font_description_copy(), but only a shallow copy is made of the family name and other allocated fields. The result can only be used until desc is modified or freed. This is meant to be used when the copy is only needed temporarily. be freed with pango_font_description_free(), or NULL if desc was NULL. Returns: Pango.FontDescription	Pango.FontDescription
	equal (FontDescription *desc2) : Boolean Compares two font descriptions for equality. Compares two font descriptions for equality. Two font descriptions are considered equal if the fonts they describe are provably identical. This means that their masks do not have to match, as long as other fields are all the same. (Two font descriptions may result in identical fonts being loaded, but still compare FALSE.) FALSE* otherwise. Parameters: Pango.FontDescription desc2 Required (not null) Returns: Boolean	Pango.FontDescription
	free () : none Frees a font description. Frees a font description. Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	get_family () : String Gets the family name field of a font description. Gets the family name field of a font description. See pango_font_description_set_family(). NULL if not previously set. This has the same life-time as the font description itself and should not be freed. Returns: String	Pango.FontDescription
	get_gravity () : Pango.Gravity Gets the gravity field of a font description. Gets the gravity field of a font description. See pango_font_description_set_gravity(). pango_font_description_get_set_fields() to find out if the field was explicitly set or not. Returns: Pango.Gravity	Pango.FontDescription
	get_set_fields () : Pango.FontMask Determines which fields in a font description have been set. Determines which fields in a font description have been set. fields in desc that have been set. Returns: Pango.FontMask	Pango.FontDescription
	get_size () : Number Gets the size field of a font description. Gets the size field of a font description. See pango_font_description_set_size(). You must call pango_font_description_get_size_is_absolute() to find out which is the case. Returns 0 if the size field has not previously been set or it has been set to 0 explicitly. Use pango_font_description_get_set_fields() to find out if the field was explicitly set or not. Returns: Number	Pango.FontDescription
	get_size_is_absolute () : Boolean Determines whether the size of the font is in points (not absolute) or device units (absolute). Determines whether the size of the font is in points (not absolute) or device units (absolute). See pango_font_description_set_size() and pango_font_description_set_absolute_size(). points or device units. Use pango_font_description_get_set_fields() to find out if the size field of the font description was explicitly set or not. Returns: Boolean	Pango.FontDescription
	get_stretch () : Pango.Stretch Gets the stretch field of a font description. Gets the stretch field of a font description. See pango_font_description_set_stretch(). pango_font_description_get_set_fields() to find out if the field was explicitly set or not. Returns: Pango.Stretch	Pango.FontDescription

	hash () : Number Computes a hash of a PangoFontDescription structure suitable to be used, for example, as an argument to g_hash_table_new(). Computes a hash of a PangoFontDescription structure suitable to be used, for example, as an argument to g_hash_table_new(). The hash value is independent of desc->mask. Returns: Number	Pango.FontDescription
	merge (FontDescription *desc_to_merge, Boolean replace_existing) : none Merges the fields that are set in desc_to_merge* into the fields in are not already set are affected. Merges the fields that are set in desc_to_merge into the fields in are not already set are affected. If TRUE, then fields that are already set will be replaced as well. If desc_to_merge is NULL, this function performs nothing. Parameters: Pango.FontDescription desc_to_merge Required (not null) Boolean replace_existing Required (not null) corresponding values from desc_to_merge, even if they are already exist. Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	merge_static (FontDescription *desc_to_merge, Boolean replace_existing) : none Like pango_font_description_merge(), but only a shallow copy is made of the family name and other allocated fields. Like pango_font_description_merge(), but only a shallow copy is made of the family name and other allocated fields. desc* can only be used until desc_to_merge is modified or freed. This is meant to be used when the merged font description is only needed temporarily. Parameters: Pango.FontDescription desc_to_merge Required (not null) Boolean replace_existing Required (not null) corresponding values from desc_to_merge, even if they are already exist. Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	set_absolute_size (Number *size) : none Sets the size field of a font description, in device units. Sets the size field of a font description, in device units. This is mutually exclusive with pango_font_description_set_size() which sets the font size in points. Parameters: Number size* Required (not null) device unit. For an output backend where a device unit is a pixel, a size value of 10 * PANGO_SCALE gives a 10 pixel font. Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	set_family (String *family) : none Sets the family name field of a font description. Sets the family name field of a font description. The family name represents a family of related font styles, and will resolve to a particular PangoFontFamily. In some uses of PangoFontDescription, it is also possible to use a comma separated list of family names for this field. Parameters: String family* Required (not null) Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	set_family_static (String *family) : none Like pango_font_description_set_family(), except that no copy of family* is made. Like pango_font_description_set_family(), except that no copy of family is made. The caller must make sure that the string passed in stays around until desc has been freed or the name is set again. This function can be used if if desc is only needed temporarily. Parameters: String family Required (not null) Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	set_gravity (Gravity *gravity) : none Sets the gravity field of a font description. Sets the gravity field of a font description. The gravity field specifies how the glyphs should be rotated. If gravity* is PANGO_GRAVITY_AUTO, this actually unsets the gravity mask on the font description. This function is seldom useful to the user. Gravity should normally be set on a PangoContext. Parameters: Pango.Gravity gravity Required (not null) Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	set_size (Number *size) : none Sets the size field of a font description in fractional points. Sets the size field of a font description in fractional points. This is mutually exclusive with pango_font_description_set_absolute_size(). Parameters: Number size* Required (not null) a size value of 10 * PANGO_SCALE is a 10 point font. The conversion factor between points and device units depends on system configuration and the output device. For screen display, a logical DPI of 96 is common, in which case a 10 point font corresponds to a 10 * (96 / 72) = 13.3 pixel font. Use pango_font_description_set_absolute_size() if you need a particular size in device units. Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	set_stretch (Stretch *stretch) : none Sets the stretch field of a font description. Sets the stretch field of a font description. The stretch field specifies how narrow or wide the font should be. Parameters: Pango.Stretch stretch* Required (not null) Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	set_style (Style *style) : none Sets the style field of a PangoFontDescription. Sets the style field of a PangoFontDescription. The PangoStyle* enumeration describes whether the font is slanted and the manner in which it is slanted; it can be either PANGO_STYLE_NORMAL, PANGO_STYLE_ITALIC, or PANGO_STYLE_OBLIQUE. Most fonts will either have a italic style or an oblique style, but not both, and font matching in Pango will match italic specifications with oblique fonts and vice-versa if an exact match is not found. Parameters: Pango.Style style Required (not null) Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	set_variant (Variant *variant) : none Sets the variant field of a font description. Sets the variant field of a font description. The PangoVariant* can either be PANGO_VARIANT_NORMAL or PANGO_VARIANT_SMALL_CAPS. Parameters: Pango.Variant variant Required (not null) Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	set_weight (Weight *weight) : none Sets the weight field of a font description. Sets the weight field of a font description. The weight field specifies how bold or light the font should be. In addition to the values of the PangoWeight* enumeration, other intermediate numeric values are possible. Parameters: Pango.Weight weight Required (not null) Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
	to_filename () : String Creates a filename representation of a font description. Creates a filename representation of a font description. The filename is identical to the result from calling pango_font_description_to_string(), but with underscores instead of characters that are untypical in filenames, and in lower case only. Returns: String	Pango.FontDescription
	to_string () : String Creates a string representation of a font description. Creates a string representation of a font description. See pango_font_description_from_string() for a description of the format of the string representation. The family list in the string description will only have a terminating comma if the last word of the list is a valid style option. Returns: String	Pango.FontDescription
	unset_fields (FontMask *to_unset) : none Unsets some of the fields in a PangoFontDescription. Unsets some of the fields in a PangoFontDescription. The unset fields will get back to their default values. Parameters: Pango.FontMask to_unset* Required (not null) Returns: none	Pango.FontDescription
