Sets the kerning value between a previous layer and this layer.

Not available in Swift.

- (void) setPreviousKerning:(CGFloat) value
                   forLayer:(GSLayer *) previousLayer
                  direction:(GSWritingDirection) direction;
setPreviousKerning_forLayer_direction_(
    value: float,
    previousLayer: GSLayer,
    direction: GSWritingDirection
)

Parameters

previousLayer

The layer before this layer.

Discussion

The value is stored for the layer’s associated master and the requested writing direction. Group kerning is used unless the pair has a kerning exception. Pass CGFLOAT_MAX to remove the kerning value.
