Widget.createPangoLayout

Creates a new #PangoLayout with the appropriate font map, font description, and base direction for drawing text for this widget.

If you keep a #PangoLayout created in this way around, you need to re-create it when the widget #PangoContext is replaced. This can be tracked by using the #GtkWidget::screen-changed signal on the widget.
