Pango.Renderer.activate

### Method

# Pango Rendereractivate

#### Declaration [src]

    void
    pango_renderer_activate (
      PangoRenderer* renderer
    )

#### Description [src]

Does initial setup before rendering operations on `renderer`.

pango_renderer_deactivate() should be called when done drawing. Calls such as pango_renderer_draw_layout() automatically activate the layout before drawing on it.

Calls to pango_renderer_activate() and pango_renderer_deactivate() can be nested and the renderer will only be initialized and deinitialized once.
