Renderer.newForSurface

gsk.renderer.Renderer newForSurface(gdk.surface.Surface surface)

Creates an appropriate [gsk.renderer.Renderer] instance for the given surface.

If the GSK_RENDERER environment variable is set, GSK will try that renderer first, before trying the backend-specific default. The ultimate fallback is the cairo renderer.

The renderer will be realized before it is returned.

Parameters

surface a [gdk.surface.Surface]

Returns

a [gsk.renderer.Renderer]
