This way we can pass the command pool around.
And that allows us to allocate and submitcustom buffers.
And that is necessary to make staging images work.
This code makes renderers fall back to Cairo rendering if they don't
know how to handle a render node's type.
This allows adding new render nodes with impunity.
Instead of appending a container node and adding the nodes to it as they
come in, we now collect the nodes until gtk_snapshot_pop() is called and
then hand them out in a container node.
The caller of gtk_snapshot_push() is then responsible for doing whatever
he wants with the created node.
Another addigion is the keep_coordinates flag to gtk_snapshot_push()
which allows callers to keep the current offset and clip region or
discard it. Discarding is useful when doing transforms, keeping it is
useful when inserting effect nodes (like the ones I'm about to add).
Instead of having a setter for the transform, have a GskTransformNode.
Most of the oprations that GTK does do not require a transform, so it
doesn't make sense to have it as a primary attribute.
Also, changing the transform requires updating the uniforms of the GL
renderer, so we're happy if we can avoid that.
gsk_render_node_get_bounds() still exists and is computed via vfunc
call:
- containers dynamically compute the bounds from their children
- surface and texture nodes get bounds passed on construction
In the brave new world of refactored render nodes, this function doesn't
really make any sense anymore. We could turn it into a vfunc, but I
don't think it's useful.
Especially because even in the brave old world, this function was
causing a vastl overallocation of nodes when the GL renderer needed render
targets.
If we ever feel, we need this function again, we can readd it later.
But nobody is using it other than for overriding opactiy. And you can
just override opacity directly if you care.
Creating render nodes is fire-and-forget, so all one should do is create
a container, append, append, append and then send it off to the
renderer. So there's no need to replace, insert between or anything
else.
- Recognize "gl" as well as "opengl" for the GL renderer
- GSK_RENDERER=help now works
- g_warning() for an unrecognized renderer (typo detection!)
- g_print() the actual renderer that is used (and error messages when
selecting) when a GSK_RENDERER is given, so you'll notice if your
renderer isn't taken.
