# `GSLayer doSlantingCorrectionWithAngle:checkSelection:`

*Instance Method*

Corrects stem contrast for a horizontal slant.

## Declaration

```swift
func doSlantingCorrection(withAngle angle: CGFloat, checkSelection: Bool)
```

```objc
- (void) doSlantingCorrectionWithAngle:(CGFloat) angle checkSelection:(BOOL) checkSelection;
```

```python
doSlantingCorrectionWithAngle_checkSelection_(angle: float, checkSelection: bool)
```

## Parameters

- `angle` — The slant angle in degrees.
- `checkSelection` — Whether to restrict the operation to selected nodes.

## Discussion

Stem dimensions are taken from the associated font master.
