Remarks
A flat that controls text to be written in vertical orientation
This flag is used for telling the underlying text layout engine that the text is for vertical direction. By enabling this flag, text measurement, drawing and shaping APIs works for vertical text layout. For example, Canvas#drawText(String, float, float, Paint) draws text from top to bottom. Paint#measureText(String) returns vertical advances instead of horizontal advances. TextRunShaper shapes text vertically and report glyph IDs for vertical layout.
Do not set this flag for making android.text.Layout. The android.text.Layout class and its subclasses are designed for horizontal text only and does not work for vertical text.
