ScriptCategory enum

A characterization of the of a TextTheme's glyphs that is used to define its localized TextStyle geometry for ThemeData.textTheme.

The script category defines the overall geometry of a TextTheme for the static MaterialTextGeometry.localizedFor method in terms of the three language categories defined in material.io/go/design-typography.

Generally speaking, font sizes for ScriptCategory.tall and ScriptCategory.dense scripts - for text styles that are smaller than the title style - are one unit larger than they are for ScriptCategory.englishLike scripts.

Constants

Language scripts that require extra line height to accommodate larger glyphs, including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.

const ScriptCategory(1)
englishLike → const ScriptCategory

The languages of Western, Central, and Eastern Europe and much of Africa are typically written in the Latin alphabet. Vietnamese is a notable exception in that, while it uses a localized form of the Latin writing system, its accented glyphs can be much taller than those found in Western European languages. The Greek and Cyrillic writing systems are very similar to Latin.
