Expand description

Paintable is a simple interface used by GTK to represent content that can be painted.

The content of a Paintable can be painted anywhere at any size without requiring any sort of layout. The interface is inspired by similar concepts elsewhere, such as ClutterContent, HTML/CSS Paint Sources, or SVG Paint Servers.

A Paintable can be snapshot at any time and size using PaintableExt::snapshot(). How the paintable interprets that size and if it scales or centers itself into the given rectangle is implementation defined, though if you are implementing a Paintable and don’t know what to do, it is suggested that you scale your paintable ignoring any potential aspect ratio.

The contents that a Paintable produces may depend on the Snapshot passed to it. For example, paintables may decide to use more detailed images on higher resolution screens or when OpenGL is available. A Paintable will however always produce the same output for the same snapshot.

A Paintable may change its contents, meaning that it will now produce a different output with the same snapshot. Once that happens, it will call PaintableExt::invalidate_contents() which will emit the signal::GdkPaintable::invalidate-contents signal. If a paintable is known to never change its contents, it will set the PaintableFlags::CONTENTS flag. If a consumer cannot deal with changing contents, it may call PaintableExt::current_image() which will return a static paintable and use that.

A paintable can report an intrinsic (or preferred) size or aspect ratio it wishes to be rendered at, though it doesn’t have to. Consumers of the interface can use this information to layout thepaintable appropriately. Just like the contents, the size of a paintable can change. A paintable will indicate this by calling PaintableExt::invalidate_size() which will emit the signal::GdkPaintable::invalidate-size signal. And just like for contents, if a paintable is known to never change its size, it will set the PaintableFlags::SIZE flag.

Besides API for applications, there are some functions that are only useful for implementing subclasses and should not be used by applications: PaintableExt::invalidate_contents(), PaintableExt::invalidate_size(), new_empty().

Implements

PaintableExt

Implementations§

Returns a paintable that has the given intrinsic size and draws nothing.

This is often useful for implementing the vfunc::Gdk::Paintable::get_current_image virtual function when the paintable is in an incomplete state (like a Gtk::MediaStream before receiving the first frame).

intrinsic_width

The intrinsic width to report. Can be 0 for no width.

intrinsic_height

The intrinsic height to report. Can be 0 for no height.

Returns

a Paintable
