Module for [DrawingContext] class

class DrawingContext DrawingContextGidBuilder DrawingContextGidBuilderImpl

Types 3

classDrawingContext : gobject.object.ObjectWrap

#GdkDrawingContext is an object that represents the current drawing state of a #GdkWindow.

It's possible to use a #GdkDrawingContext to draw on a #GdkWindow via rendering API like Cairo or OpenGL.

A #GdkDrawingContext can only be created by calling [gdk.window.Window.beginDrawFrame] and will be valid until a call to [gdk.window.Window.endDrawFrame].

#GdkDrawingContext is available since GDK 3.22

Methods

GType _getGType()

GType _gType() @property

DrawingContext self()Returns `this`, for use in `with` statements.

DrawingContextGidBuilder builder()Get builder for [gdk.drawing_context.DrawingContext] Returns: New builder object

cairo.region.Region clip() @propertyGet `clip` property. Returns: The clip region applied to the drawing context.

gdk.window.Window window() @propertyGet `window` property. Returns: The #GdkWindow that created the drawing context.

cairo.context.Context getCairoContext()Retrieves a Cairo context to be used to draw on the #GdkWindow that created the #GdkDrawingContext.

cairo.region.Region getClip()Retrieves a copy of the clip region used when creating the context. Returns: a Cairo region

gdk.window.Window getWindow()Retrieves the window that created the drawing context. Returns: a #GdkWindow

bool isValid()Checks whether the given #GdkDrawingContext is valid. Returns: true if the context is valid
