# lineLayoutPadding

The layout padding before and after the text attachment bounds.

## Declaration

```swift
var lineLayoutPadding: CGFloat { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The layout and rendering bounds X origin is inset by the padding value. This affects the relationship between the text attachment bounds and NSLayoutManager glyph metrics methods location(forGlyphAt:) and attachmentSize(forGlyphAt:). The default value is 0.0.
