| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| South0 | Glyphs stand upright (default) <img align="right" valign="center" src="m-south.png"> |
| East1 | Glyphs are rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise. <img align="right" valign="center" src="m-east.png"> |
| North2 | Glyphs are upside-down. <img align="right" valign="cener" src="m-north.png"> |
| West3 | Glyphs are rotated 90 degrees clockwise. <img align="right" valign="center" src="m-west.png"> |
| Auto4 | Gravity is resolved from the context matrix |
pango.types.Gravity represents the orientation of glyphs in a segment of text.
This is useful when rendering vertical text layouts. In those situations, the layout is rotated using a non-identity pango.matrix.Matrix, and then glyph orientation is controlled using pango.types.Gravity.
Not every value in this enumeration makes sense for every usage of pango.types.Gravity; for example, pango.types.Gravity.Auto only can be passed to pango.context.Context.setBaseGravity and can only be returned by pango.context.Context.getBaseGravity.
