### Struct

# Pango GlyphGeometry

#### Description [src]

    struct PangoGlyphGeometry {
      PangoGlyphUnit width;
      PangoGlyphUnit x_offset;
      PangoGlyphUnit y_offset;
    }

The `PangoGlyphGeometry` structure contains width and positioning information for a single glyph.

Note that `width` is not guaranteed to be the same as the glyph extents. Kerning and other positioning applied during shaping will affect both the `width` and the `x_offset` for the glyphs in the glyph string that results from shaping.

The information in this struct is intended for rendering the glyphs, as follows:

1. Assume the current point is (x, y)
2. Render the current glyph at (x + x_offset, y + y_offset),
3. Advance the current point to (x + width, y)
4. Render the next glyph.

###### Structure members

`width`

  The logical width to use for the the character.

`x_offset`

  Horizontal offset from nominal character position.

`y_offset`

  Vertical offset from nominal character position.
