Declaration [src]

GSList*
pango_layout_get_lines_readonly (
  PangoLayout* layout

Available since:

1.16

Return value

Returns: A list of `PangoLayoutLine`
a `GSList` containing the lines in the layout. This points to internal data of the `PangoLayout` and must be used with care. It will become invalid on any change to the layout’s text or properties. No changes should be made to the lines.
