setBaseDir

Sets the base direction for the context.

The base direction is used in applying the Unicode bidirectional algorithm; if the @direction is %PANGO_DIRECTION_LTR or %PANGO_DIRECTION_RTL, then the value will be used as the paragraph direction in the Unicode bidirectional algorithm. A value of %PANGO_DIRECTION_WEAK_LTR or %PANGO_DIRECTION_WEAK_RTL is used only for paragraphs that do not contain any strong characters themselves.
