Detailed Description

Drawing Primitives.

Gdk::Drawable is the base class for all of the objects that accept drawing commands. The available drawables include pixmaps, windows, and bitmaps. Drawable is abstract as there is no such type on the server side.

To use a drawable, create a concrete Drawable of the type you wish to use and a Gdk::GC (graphics context) for that Drawable. With the GC you can draw lines, text, arcs and such.

An alternative is to create a Cairo::Context with get_cairo_context() while you handle the 'exposed' event of the drawable. For more about this, please see "Using cairo with GTK+" in the "Common questions" section of the GTK+ Reference Manual.

Member Function Documentation

void Gdk::Drawable::copy_to_image ( const Glib::RefPtr< Image >&  image,
int  src_x,
int  src_y,
int  dest_x,
int  dest_y,
int  width,
int  height 
) const
static Glib::RefPtr<Drawable> Gdk::Drawable::create ( )
static
Cairo::RefPtr<Cairo::Context> Gdk::Drawable::create_cairo_context ( )

Creates a Cairo context for drawing to drawable.

Returns
A newly created Cairo context.
Since gtkmm 2.10:
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_arc ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
bool  filled,
int  x,
int  y,
int  width,
int  height,
int  angle1,
int  angle2 
)

Draws an arc or a filled 'pie slice'.

The arc is defined by the bounding rectangle of the entire ellipse, and the start and end angles of the part of the ellipse to be drawn.

Deprecated: 2.22: Use cairo_arc() and cairo_fill() or cairo_stroke() instead. Note that arcs just like any drawing operation in Cairo are antialiased unless you call cairo_set_antialias().

Parameters
gcA Gdk::GC.
filledtrue if the arc should be filled, producing a 'pie slice'.
xThe x coordinate of the left edge of the bounding rectangle.
yThe y coordinate of the top edge of the bounding rectangle.
widthThe width of the bounding rectangle.
heightThe height of the bounding rectangle.
angle1The start angle of the arc, relative to the 3 o'clock position, counter-clockwise, in 1/64ths of a degree.
angle2The end angle of the arc, relative to angle1, in 1/64ths of a degree.
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_drawable ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
const Glib::RefPtr< const Drawable >&  src,
int  xsrc,
int  ysrc,
int  xdest,
int  ydest,
int  width = -1,
int  height = -1 
)

Copies the width x height region of src at coordinates ( xsrc, ysrc) to coordinates ( xdest, ydest) in drawable.

width and/or height may be given as -1, in which case the entire src drawable will be copied.

Most fields in gc are not used for this operation, but notably the clip mask or clip region will be honored.

The source and destination drawables must have the same visual and colormap, or errors will result. (On X11, failure to match visual/colormap results in a BadMatch error from the X server.) A common cause of this problem is an attempt to draw a bitmap to a color drawable. The way to draw a bitmap is to set the bitmap as the stipple on the Gdk::GC, set the fill mode to Gdk::STIPPLED, and then draw the rectangle.

Deprecated: 2.22: Use gdk_cairo_set_source_pixmap(), cairo_rectangle() and cairo_fill() to draw pixmap on top of other drawables. Also keep in mind that the limitations on allowed sources do not apply to Cairo.

Parameters
gcA Gdk::GC sharing the drawable's visual and colormap.
srcThe source Gdk::Drawable, which may be the same as drawable.
xsrcX position in src of rectangle to draw.
ysrcY position in src of rectangle to draw.
xdestX position in drawable where the rectangle should be drawn.
ydestY position in drawable where the rectangle should be drawn.
widthWidth of rectangle to draw, or -1 for entire src width.
heightHeight of rectangle to draw, or -1 for entire src height.
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_glyphs ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
const Glib::RefPtr< const Pango::Font > &  font,
int  x,
int  y,
const Pango::GlyphString glyphs 
)

This is a low-level function; 99% of text rendering should be done using gdk_draw_layout() instead.

A glyph is a single image in a font. This function draws a sequence of glyphs. To obtain a sequence of glyphs you have to understand a lot about internationalized text handling, which you don't want to understand; thus, use gdk_draw_layout() instead of this function, gdk_draw_layout() handles the details.

Deprecated: 2.22: Use pango_cairo_show_glyphs() instead.

Parameters
gcA Gdk::GC.
fontFont to be used.
xX coordinate of baseline origin.
yY coordinate of baseline origin.
glyphsThe glyph string to draw.
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_gray_image ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
int  x,
int  y,
int  width,
int  height,
RgbDither  dith,
const guchar *  rgb_buf,
int  rowstride 
)
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_image ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
const Glib::RefPtr< const Image >&  image,
int  xsrc,
int  ysrc,
int  xdest,
int  ydest,
int  width = -1,
int  height = -1 
)

Draws a Gdk::Image onto a drawable.

The depth of the Gdk::Image must match the depth of the Gdk::Drawable.

Deprecated: 2.22: Do not use Gdk::Image anymore, instead use Cairo image surfaces.

Parameters
gcA Gdk::GC.
imageThe Gdk::Image to draw.
xsrcThe left edge of the source rectangle within image.
ysrcThe top of the source rectangle within image.
xdestThe x coordinate of the destination within drawable.
ydestThe y coordinate of the destination within drawable.
widthThe width of the area to be copied, or -1 to make the area extend to the right edge of image.
heightThe height of the area to be copied, or -1 to make the area extend to the bottom edge of image.
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_indexed_image ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
int  x,
int  y,
int  width,

int  x,
int  y,
const Glib::RefPtr< const Pango::Layout > &  layout 
)

Render a Pango::Layout onto a GDK drawable.

If the layout's Pango::Context has a transformation matrix set, then x and y specify the position of the top left corner of the bounding box (in device space) of the transformed layout.

If you're using GTK+, the usual way to obtain a Pango::Layout is gtk_widget_create_pango_layout().

Parameters
gcBase graphics context to use.
xThe X position of the left of the layout (in pixels).
yThe Y position of the top of the layout (in pixels).
layoutA Pango::Layout.

int  x,
int  y,
const Glib::RefPtr< const Pango::Layout > &  layout,
const Color foreground,
const Color background 
)

Render a Pango::Layout onto a Gdk::Drawable, overriding the layout's normal colors with foreground and/or background.

foreground and background need not be allocated.

If the layout's Pango::Context has a transformation matrix set, then x and y specify the position of the top left corner of the bounding box (in device space) of the transformed layout.

If you're using GTK+, the ususal way to obtain a Pango::Layout is gtk_widget_create_pango_layout().

Parameters
gcBase graphics context to use.
xThe X position of the left of the layout (in pixels).
yThe Y position of the top of the layout (in pixels).
layoutA Pango::Layout.
foregroundForeground override color, or nullptr for none.

void Gdk::Drawable::draw_layout_line ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
int  x,
int  y,
const Glib::RefPtr< const Pango::LayoutLine > &  line 
)

Render a Pango::LayoutLine onto an GDK drawable.

If the layout's Pango::Context has a transformation matrix set, then x and y specify the position of the left edge of the baseline (left is in before-tranform user coordinates) in after-transform device coordinates.

Parameters
gcBase graphics to use.
xThe x position of start of string (in pixels).
yThe y position of baseline (in pixels).
lineA Pango::LayoutLine.
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_layout_line ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,

const Glib::RefPtr< const Pango::LayoutLine > &  line,
const Color foreground,
const Color background 
)

Render a Pango::LayoutLine onto a Gdk::Drawable, overriding the layout's normal colors with foreground and/or background.

foreground and background need not be allocated.

If the layout's Pango::Context has a transformation matrix set, then x and y specify the position of the left edge of the baseline (left is in before-tranform user coordinates) in after-transform device coordinates.

Parameters
gcBase graphics to use.
xThe x position of start of string (in pixels).
yThe y position of baseline (in pixels).
lineA Pango::LayoutLine.
foregroundForeground override color, or nullptr for none.

void Gdk::Drawable::draw_line ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
int  x1,
int  y1,
int  x2,
int  y2 
)

Draws a line, using the foreground color and other attributes of the Gdk::GC.

Deprecated: 2.22: Use cairo_line_to() and cairo_stroke() instead. Be aware that the default line width in Cairo is 2 pixels and that your coordinates need to describe the center of the line. To draw a single pixel wide pixel-aligned line, you would use:

[C example ellipted] See also the Cairo FAQ on this topic.

Parameters
gcA Gdk::GC.
x1The x coordinate of the start point.
y1The y coordinate of the start point.
x2The x coordinate of the end point.
y2The y coordinate of the end point.
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_lines ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
const Glib::ArrayHandle< Point >&  points 
)
Deprecated:
Use cairo_line_to() and cairo_stroke() instead.

See the documentation of gdk_draw_line() for notes on line drawing with Cairo.

void Gdk::Drawable::draw_pixbuf ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
const Glib::RefPtr< Pixbuf >&  pixbuf,
int  src_x,
int  src_y,
int  dest_x,
int  dest_y,
int  width,
int  height,
RgbDither  dither,
int  x_dither,
int  y_dither 
)

Renders a rectangular portion of a pixbuf to a drawable.

The destination drawable must have a colormap. All windows have a colormap, however, pixmaps only have colormap by default if they were created with a non-nullptr window argument. Otherwise a colormap must be set on them with Gdk::Drawable::set_colormap().

On older X servers, rendering pixbufs with an alpha channel involves round trips to the X server, and may be somewhat slow.

The clip mask of gc is ignored, but clip rectangles and clip regions work fine.

If GDK is built with the Sun mediaLib library, the gdk_draw_pixbuf function is accelerated using mediaLib, which provides hardware acceleration on Intel, AMD, and Sparc chipsets. If desired, mediaLib support can be turned off by setting the GDK_DISABLE_MEDIALIB environment variable.

Since gtkmm 2.2:
Parameters
gcA Gdk::GC, used for clipping.
pixbufA Gdk::Pixbuf.
src_xSource X coordinate within pixbuf.
src_ySource Y coordinates within pixbuf.
dest_xDestination X coordinate within drawable.
dest_yDestination Y coordinate within drawable.
widthWidth of region to render, in pixels, or -1 to use pixbuf width.
heightHeight of region to render, in pixels, or -1 to use pixbuf height.
ditherDithering mode for Gdk::RGB.
x_ditherX offset for dither.
y_ditherY offset for dither.
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_pixbuf ( const Glib::RefPtr< Pixbuf >&  pixbuf,
int  src_x,
int  src_y,
int  dest_x,
int  dest_y,
int  width,
int  height,
RgbDither  dither,
int  x_dither,
int  y_dither 
)

Renders a rectangular portion of a pixbuf to a drawable.

The destination drawable must have a colormap. All windows have a colormap, however, pixmaps only have colormap by default if they were created with a non-0 window argument. Otherwise a colormap must be set on them with Gdk::Drawable::set_colormap().

On older X servers, rendering pixbufs with an alpha channel involves round trips to the X server, and may be somewhat slow.

If GDK is built with the Sun mediaLib library, the gdk_draw_pixbuf function is accelerated using mediaLib, which provides hardware acceleration on Intel, AMD, and Sparc chipsets. If desired, mediaLib support can be turned off by setting the GDK_DISABLE_MEDIALIB environment variable.

Since gtkmm 2.16:
Parameters
pixbufA Gdk::Pixbuf.
src_xSource X coordinate within pixbuf.
src_ySource Y coordinates within pixbuf.
dest_xDestination X coordinate within drawable.
dest_yDestination Y coordinate within drawable.
widthWidth of region to render, in pixels, or -1 to use pixbuf width.
heightHeight of region to render, in pixels, or -1 to use pixbuf height.
ditherDithering mode for Gdk::RGB.
x_ditherX offset for dither.
y_ditherY offset for dither.
Deprecated:
Use gdk_cairo_set_source_pixbuf() and cairo_paint() or cairo_rectangle() and cairo_fill() instead.
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_point ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
int  x,
int  y 
)

Draws a point, using the foreground color and other attributes of the Gdk::GC.

Deprecated: 2.22: Use cairo_rectangle() and cairo_fill() or cairo_move_to() and cairo_stroke() instead.

Parameters
gcA Gdk::GC.
xThe x coordinate of the point.
yThe y coordinate of the point.
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_points ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
const Glib::ArrayHandle< Point >&  points 
)
Deprecated:
Use n_points calls to cairo_rectangle() and cairo_fill() instead.
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_polygon ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
bool  filled,
const Glib::ArrayHandle< Point >&  points 
)
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_rectangle ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
bool  filled,
int  x,
int  y,
int  width,
int  height 
)

Draws a rectangular outline or filled rectangle, using the foreground color and other attributes of the Gdk::GC.

A rectangle drawn filled is 1 pixel smaller in both dimensions than a rectangle outlined. Calling gdk_draw_rectangle (window, gc, true, 0, 0, 20, 20) results in a filled rectangle 20 pixels wide and 20 pixels high. Calling gdk_draw_rectangle (window, gc, false, 0, 0, 20, 20) results in an outlined rectangle with corners at (0, 0), (0, 20), (20, 20), and (20, 0), which makes it 21 pixels wide and 21 pixels high.

Deprecated: 2.22: Use cairo_rectangle() and cairo_fill() or cairo_stroke() instead. For stroking, the same caveats for converting code apply as for gdk_draw_line().

Parameters
gcA Gdk::GC.
filledtrue if the rectangle should be filled.
xThe x coordinate of the left edge of the rectangle.
yThe y coordinate of the top edge of the rectangle.
widthThe width of the rectangle.
heightThe height of the rectangle.
void Gdk::Drawable::draw_rgb_32_image ( const Glib::RefPtr< const GC >&  gc,
int  x,
int  y,
int  width,
int  height,
RgbDither  dith,
const guchar *  rgb_buf,

int  y,
int  width,
int  height,
RgbDither  dith,
const guchar *  buf,
int  rowstride,
int  xdith,
int  ydith 
)

Like gdk_draw_rgb_32_image(), but allows you to specify the dither offsets.

See gdk_draw_rgb_image_dithalign() for more details.

Deprecated: 2.22: Cairo handles colors automatically.

Parameters

)

Draws a number of unconnected lines.

Deprecated: 2.22: Use cairo_move_to(), cairo_line_to() and cairo_stroke() instead. See the documentation of gdk_draw_line() for notes on line drawing with Cairo.

Parameters
gcA Gdk::GC.
segsAn array of Gdk::Segment structures specifying the start and end points of the lines to be drawn.
nsegsThe number of line segments to draw, i.e. the size of the segs array.
Region Gdk::Drawable::get_clip_region ( ) const

Computes the region of a drawable that potentially can be written to by drawing primitives.

This region will not take into account the clip region for the GC, and may also not take into account other factors such as if the window is obscured by other windows, but no area outside of this region will be affected by drawing primitives.

Returns
A Gdk::Region. This must be freed with Gdk::Region::destroy() when you are done.
Glib::RefPtr<Colormap> Gdk::Drawable::get_colormap ( )

Gets the colormap for drawable, if one is set; returns nullptr otherwise.

Returns
The colormap, or nullptr.
int Gdk::Drawable::get_depth ( ) const

Obtains the bit depth of the drawable, that is, the number of bits that make up a pixel in the drawable's visual.

Examples are 8 bits per pixel, 24 bits per pixel, etc.

Returns
Number of bits per pixel.
Glib::RefPtr<Display> Gdk::Drawable::get_display ( )

Gets the Gdk::Display associated with a Gdk::Drawable.

Since gtkmm 2.2:

Deprecated: 2.24: Use Gdk::Window::get_display() instead

Returns
The Gdk::Display associated with drawable.
Glib::RefPtr<const Display> Gdk::Drawable::get_display ( ) const

Gets the Gdk::Display associated with a Gdk::Drawable.

Since gtkmm 2.2:

Deprecated: 2.24: Use Gdk::Window::get_display() instead

Returns
The Gdk::Display associated with drawable.
Glib::RefPtr<Image> Gdk::Drawable::get_image ( int  x,
int  y,
int  width,
int  height 
) const

A Gdk::Image stores client-side image data (pixels).

In contrast, Gdk::Pixmap and Gdk::Window are server-side objects. get_image() obtains the pixels from a server-side drawable as a client-side Gdk::Image. The format of a Gdk::Image depends on the Gdk::Visual of the current display, which makes manipulating Gdk::Image extremely difficult; therefore, in most cases you should use the Gdk::Pixbuf::create() method that takes a Gdk::Drawable, instead of this lower-level function. A Gdk::Pixbuf contains image data in a canonicalized RGB format, rather than a display-dependent format. Of course, there's a convenience vs. speed tradeoff here, so you'll want to think about what makes sense for your application.

x, y, width, and height define the region of drawable to obtain as an image.

You would usually copy image data to the client side if you intend to examine the values of individual pixels, for example to darken an image or add a red tint. It would be prohibitively slow to make a round-trip request to the windowing system for each pixel, so instead you get all of them at once, modify them, then copy them all back at once.

If the X server or other windowing system backend is on the local machine, this function may use shared memory to avoid copying the image data.

If the source drawable is a Gdk::Window and partially offscreen or obscured, then the obscured portions of the returned image will contain undefined data.

Parameters
xX coordinate on drawable.
yY coordinate on drawable.
widthWidth of region to get.
heightHeight or region to get.
Returns
A Gdk::Image containing the contents of drawable.
Glib::RefPtr<Screen> Gdk::Drawable::get_screen ( )

Gets the Gdk::Screen associated with a Gdk::Drawable.

Since gtkmm 2.2:

Deprecated: 2.24: Use Gdk::Window::get_screen() instead

Returns
The Gdk::Screen associated with drawable.
Glib::RefPtr<const Screen> Gdk::Drawable::get_screen ( ) const

Gets the Gdk::Screen associated with a Gdk::Drawable.

Since gtkmm 2.2:

Deprecated: 2.24: Use Gdk::Window::get_screen() instead

Returns
The Gdk::Screen associated with drawable.
void Gdk::Drawable::get_size ( int &  width,
int &  height 
)

Fills * width and * height with the size of drawable.

width or height can be nullptr if you only want the other one.

On the X11 platform, if drawable is a Gdk::Window, the returned size is the size reported in the most-recently-processed configure event, rather than the current size on the X server.

Deprecated: 2.24: Use Gdk::Window::get_width() and Gdk::Window::get_height() for Gdk::Windows. Use gdk_pixmap_get_size() for Gdk::Pixmaps.

Deprecated:
Use the const version of this method.
Parameters
widthLocation to store drawable's width, or nullptr.
heightLocation to store drawable's height, or nullptr.
void Gdk::Drawable::get_size ( int &  width,
int &  height 
) const

Fills * width and * height with the size of drawable.

width or height can be nullptr if you only want the other one.

On the X11 platform, if drawable is a Gdk::Window, the returned size is the size reported in the most-recently-processed configure event, rather than the current size on the X server.

Deprecated: 2.24: Use Gdk::Window::get_width() and Gdk::Window::get_height() for Gdk::Windows. Use gdk_pixmap_get_size() for Gdk::Pixmaps.

Parameters
widthLocation to store drawable's width, or nullptr.
heightLocation to store drawable's height, or nullptr.
static GType Gdk::Drawable::get_type ( )
static

Get the GType for this class, for use with the underlying GObject type system.

Region Gdk::Drawable::get_visible_region ( ) const

Computes the region of a drawable that is potentially visible.

This does not necessarily take into account if the window is obscured by other windows, but no area outside of this region is visible.

Returns
A Gdk::Region. This must be freed with Gdk::Region::destroy() when you are done.
Glib::RefPtr<Visual> Gdk::Drawable::get_visual ( )

Gets the Gdk::Visual describing the pixel format of drawable.

Deprecated: 2.24: Use Gdk::Window::get_visual()

Returns
A Gdk::Visual.
GdkDrawable* Gdk::Drawable::gobj ( )
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

const GdkDrawable* Gdk::Drawable::gobj ( ) const
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

GdkDrawable* Gdk::Drawable::gobj_copy ( )

Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for unrefing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs.

Drawable& Gdk::Drawable::operator= ( Drawable&&  src)
noexcept
void Gdk::Drawable::set_colormap ( const Glib::RefPtr< Colormap >&  colormap)

Sets the colormap associated with drawable.

Normally this will happen automatically when the drawable is created; you only need to use this function if the drawable-creating function did not have a way to determine the colormap, and you then use drawable operations that require a colormap. The colormap for all drawables and graphics contexts you intend to use together should match. i.e. when using a Gdk::GC to draw to a drawable, or copying one drawable to another, the colormaps should match.

Parameters
colormapA Gdk::Colormap.
