💖 Gnome2::Canvas::Text 💖

okay so bestie, this is the manual page for Gnome2::Canvas::Text — and what is it? It's Text as CanvasItems. That's it. That's the whole vibe. Text. But as a canvas item. (User Contributed Perl Documentation, if you needed the receipts.) ✨

🦋 HIERARCHY 🦋

okay so the family tree is giving royal lineage, look at this:

  Glib::Object
  +----Glib::InitiallyUnowned
       +----Gtk2::Object
            +----Gnome2::Canvas::Item
                 +----Gnome2::Canvas::Text

five whole ancestors, she's descended from greatness, we love a legacy 💅
