NAME¶
wxGraphicsContext - Functions for wxGraphicsContext class
DESCRIPTION¶
A wxGraphicsContext instance is the object that is drawn upon. It is created by a renderer using wxGraphicsRenderer:createContext/2. This can be either directly using a renderer instance, or indirectly using the static convenience create/1 functions of wxGraphicsContext that always delegate the task to the default renderer.
Remark: For some renderers (like Direct2D or Cairo) processing of drawing operations may be deferred (Direct2D render target normally builds up a batch of rendering commands but defers processing of these commands, Cairo operates on a separate surface) so to make drawing results visible you need to update the content of the context by calling wxGraphicsContext::Flush() (not implemented in wx) or by destroying the context.
See: wxGraphicsRenderer:createContext/2, wxGCDC, wxDC
This class is derived (and can use functions) from: wxGraphicsObject
wxWidgets docs: wxGraphicsContext
DATA TYPES¶
wxGraphicsContext() = wx:wx_object()
EXPORTS¶
destroy(This :: wxGraphicsContext()) -> ok
Creates a wxGraphicsContext from a wxWindow.
See: wxGraphicsRenderer:createContext/2
create() -> wxGraphicsContext()
Create a lightweight context that can be used only for measuring text.
create(WindowDC) -> wxGraphicsContext()
Types:
wxWindowDC:wxWindowDC() |
wxWindow:wxWindow() |
wxMemoryDC:wxMemoryDC() |
wxImage:wxImage()
Creates a wxGraphicsContext from a wxWindowDC.
See: wxGraphicsRenderer:createContext/2
createPen(This, Pen) -> wxGraphicsPen:wxGraphicsPen()
Types:
Pen = wxPen:wxPen()
Creates a native pen from a wxPen.
Prefer to use the overload taking wxGraphicsPenInfo (not implemented in wx) unless you already have a wxPen as constructing one only to pass it to this method is wasteful.
createBrush(This, Brush) -> wxGraphicsBrush:wxGraphicsBrush()
Types:
Brush = wxBrush:wxBrush()
Creates a native brush from a wxBrush.
createRadialGradientBrush(This, StartX, StartY, EndX, EndY,
Radius, Stops) ->
wxGraphicsBrush:wxGraphicsBrush()
Types:
StartX = StartY = EndX = EndY = Radius = number()
Stops = wxGraphicsGradientStops:wxGraphicsGradientStops()
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
createRadialGradientBrush(This, StartX, StartY, EndX, EndY,
Radius, OColor, CColor) ->
wxGraphicsBrush:wxGraphicsBrush()
Types:
StartX = StartY = EndX = EndY = Radius = number()
OColor = CColor = wx:wx_colour()
Creates a native brush with a radial gradient. The brush originates at (@a startX, @a startY) and ends on a circle around (@a endX, @a endY) with the given @a radius. The gradient may be specified either by its start and end colours @a oColor and @a cColor or by a full set of gradient @a stops. The version taking wxGraphicsGradientStops is new in wxWidgets 2.9.1.
The ability to apply a transformation matrix to the gradient was added in 3.1.3
createLinearGradientBrush(This, X1, Y1, X2, Y2, Stops) ->
wxGraphicsBrush:wxGraphicsBrush()
Types:
X1 = Y1 = X2 = Y2 = number()
Stops = wxGraphicsGradientStops:wxGraphicsGradientStops()
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
createLinearGradientBrush(This, X1, Y1, X2, Y2, C1, C2) ->
wxGraphicsBrush:wxGraphicsBrush()
Types:
X1 = Y1 = X2 = Y2 = number()
C1 = C2 = wx:wx_colour()
Creates a native brush with a linear gradient. The brush starts at (@a x1, @a y1) and ends at (@a x2, @a y2). Either just the start and end gradient colours (@a c1 and @a c2) or full set of gradient @a stops can be specified. The version taking wxGraphicsGradientStops is new in wxWidgets 2.9.1.
The matrix parameter was added in wxWidgets 3.1.3
createFont(This, Font) -> wxGraphicsFont:wxGraphicsFont()
Types:
Font = wxFont:wxFont()
createFont(This, SizeInPixels, Facename) ->
wxGraphicsFont:wxGraphicsFont()

wxGraphicsFont:wxGraphicsFont()
Types:
Font = wxFont:wxFont()
Option = {col, wx:wx_colour()}
Creates a native graphics font from a wxFont and a text colour.
Remark: For Direct2D graphics fonts can be created from TrueType fonts only.
createFont(This, SizeInPixels, Facename, Options :: [Option]) ->
wxGraphicsFont:wxGraphicsFont()
Types:
SizeInPixels = number()
Facename = unicode:chardata()
Option = {flags, integer()} | {col, wx:wx_colour()}
Creates a font object with the specified attributes.
The use of overload taking wxFont is preferred, see wxGraphicsRenderer:createFont/4 for more details.
Remark: For Direct2D graphics fonts can be created from TrueType fonts only.
Since: 2.9.3
