NATURAL0 | scripts will take their natural gravity based on the base gravity and the script. This is the default. |
STRONG1 | always use the base gravity set, regardless of the script. |
LINE2 | for scripts not in their natural direction (eg. Latin in East gravity), choose per-script gravity such that every script respects the line progression. This means, Latin and Arabic will take opposite gravities and both flow top-to-bottom for example. |
The PangoGravityHint defines how horizontal scripts should behave in a vertical context. That is, English excerpt in a vertical paragraph for example.
