Coverage

class Coverage(**properties: Any)

Superclasses: Object

A PangoCoverage structure is a map from Unicode characters to CoverageLevel values.

It is often necessary in Pango to determine if a particular font can represent a particular character, and also how well it can represent that character. The PangoCoverage is a data structure that is used to represent that information. It is an opaque structure with no public fields.

Constructors

class Coverage

classmethod new() → Coverage
