Layout.setEllipsize

Sets the type of ellipsization being performed for layout.

Depending on the ellipsization mode ellipsize text is removed from the start, middle, or end of text so they fit within the width and height of layout set with pango.layout.Layout.setWidth and pango.layout.Layout.setHeight.

If the layout contains characters such as newlines that force it to be layed out in multiple paragraphs, then whether each paragraph is ellipsized separately or the entire layout is ellipsized as a whole depends on the set height of the layout.

The default value is pango.types.EllipsizeMode.None.

See pango.layout.Layout.setHeight for details.
