/**
 * SECTION:visuals
 * @Short_description: Low-level display hardware information
 * @Title: Visuals
 *
 * A #GdkVisual describes a particular video hardware display format.
 * It includes information about the number of bits used for each color,
 * the way the bits are translated into an RGB value for display, and
 * the way the bits are stored in memory. For example, a piece of display
 * hardware might support 24-bit color, 16-bit color, or 8-bit color;
 * meaning 24/16/8-bit pixel sizes. For a given pixel size, pixels can
 * be in different formats; for example the “red” element of an RGB pixel
 * may be in the top 8 bits of the pixel, or may be in the lower 4 bits.
 *
 * There are several standard visuals. The visual returned by
 * gdk_screen_get_system_visual() is the system’s default visual, and
 * the visual returned by gdk_screen_get_rgba_visual() should be used for
 * creating windows with an alpha channel.
 *
 * A number of functions are provided for determining the “best” available
 * visual. For the purposes of making this determination, higher bit depths
 * are considered better, and for visuals of the same bit depth,
 * %GDK_VISUAL_PSEUDO_COLOR is preferred at 8bpp, otherwise, the visual
 * types are ranked in the order of(highest to lowest)
 * %GDK_VISUAL_DIRECT_COLOR, %GDK_VISUAL_TRUE_COLOR,
 * %GDK_VISUAL_PSEUDO_COLOR, %GDK_VISUAL_STATIC_COLOR,
 * %GDK_VISUAL_GRAYSCALE, then %GDK_VISUAL_STATIC_GRAY.
