Widget.createPangoLayout

pango.layout.Layout createPangoLayout(string text = null)

Creates a new pango.layout.Layout with the appropriate font map, font description, and base direction for drawing text for this widget.

If you keep a pango.layout.Layout created in this way around, you need to re-create it when the widget pango.context.Context is replaced. This can be tracked by listening to changes of the gtk.widget.Widget.root property on the widget.
