# `GSFont.kerningVertical`

*Instance Property*

Vertical kerning data.

## Declaration

```swift
var kerningVertical: MGOrderedDictionary<NSString, MGOrderedDictionary<AnyObject, AnyObject>> { get set }
```

```objc
@property (nonatomic, strong) MGOrderedDictionary<NSString *,MGOrderedDictionary *> * kerningVertical;
```

[See also `kerningVertical` in the Python API](https://docu.glyphsapp.com/#GSFont.kerningVertical)

```python
pyobjc_instanceMethods.kerningVertical() -> MGOrderedDictionary<NSString *,MGOrderedDictionary *>
pyobjc_instanceMethods.setKerningVertical_(kerningVertical: MGOrderedDictionary<NSString *,MGOrderedDictionary *>)
```

## Discussion

The outer dictionary is keyed by master identifier. Each master dictionary maps first-side glyph identifiers or group keys to dictionaries of second-side glyph identifiers or group keys. The innermost values are kerning values.
