Positioning hints for aligning a surface relative to a rectangle.
These hints determine how the surface should be positioned in the case that the surface would fall off-screen if placed in its ideal position.
For example, gdk.types.AnchorHints.FlipX will replace gdk.types.Gravity.NorthWest with gdk.types.Gravity.NorthEast and vice versa if the surface extends beyond the left or right edges of the monitor.
If gdk.types.AnchorHints.SlideX is set, the surface can be shifted horizontally to fit on-screen. If gdk.types.AnchorHints.ResizeX is set, the surface can be shrunken horizontally to fit.
In general, when multiple flags are set, flipping should take precedence over sliding, which should take precedence over resizing.
