Hello, I have seen in my latest GIMP build that the new text layer allows us to style different parts of the text in different styles. This is an amazing feature (I waited for it for a long time), but it's a pain in the neck for my PDF export plugin (see here https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=382688 ) Is there any way in which I can acces the style of the text? I can easily add a PDB procedure (to the GIMP's source) to export the PangoTextLayout object to plugins for using, but I doubt that it's a good idea (Since exposing the internal structure will be a big problem in backwards comptiablility if we ever change from pango). The other option which I can think off, is something that will work but will not be ideal. This is to expose a function that renders a text layer to a cairo surface. This way, for vector surfaces It will still be a vector instead of bitmap, and it won't be any trouble for the programmer. However, this method also has many problems... Can anyone give me any hint on what should I do?
