The ownership of the return value for gdk_pixbuf_get_from_window() and
gdk_pixbuf_get_from_surface() was determined by the first argument.
Because that is an ugly design and the functions are new to GTK3, we
decided to adapt them.
And that adaptation was quite easy since almost no one passses anything
but NULL as the first argument.
It turns out that the previous handling of just providing a way to set
visuals just on toplevels was not sufficient. In particular it
complicated the various implementations of the tray icon specification.
This patch reintroduces gtk_widget_set_visual() which behaves very
similar to GTK2's gtk_widget_set_colormap().
A future commit will remove the gtk_window_set_visual() function.
This commit add some text about mult-window ::draw implementations,
pointing out the gtk_cairo_should_draw_window() and
gtk_cairo_transform_to_window() convenience functions.
The function reverses the transform that GTK does before emitting a draw
event. So we can use it in "old" widgets to revert the coordinate system
properly.
It doesn't make sense to keep them separate as GtkSizeRequest requires a
GtkWidget and GtkWidget implements GtkSizeRequest, so you can never have
one without the other.
It also makes the code a lot easier because no casts are required when
calling functions.
Also, the names would translate to gtk_widget_get_width() and people
agreed that this would be a too generic name, so a "preferred" was added
to the names.
So this patch moves the functions:
gtk_size_request_get_request_mode() => gtk_widget_get_request_mode()
gtk_size_request_get_width() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_width()
gtk_size_request_get_height() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_height()
gtk_size_request_get_size() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_size()
gtk_size_request_get_width_for_height() =>
gtk_widget_get_preferred_width_for_height()
gtk_size_request_get_height_for_width() =>
gtk_widget_get_preferred_height_for_width()
... and moves the corresponding vfuncs to the GtkWidgetClass.
The patch also renames the implementations of the vfuncs in widgets to
include the word "preferrred".
The feature can and should be implemented manually using
gdk_window_get_background() and Cairo drawing. A non-cairo drawing API
does not make sense in GDK anymore.
The functions are gtk_widget_get_allocated_width() and
gtk_widget_get_allocated_height().
They are currently identical to using width/height of
gtk_widget_get_allocation(), but are introduced for ease of use (no need
to use a custom struct) and to free people from having to think about
allocation.x and allocation.y (which is where the origin of the cairo
context in GtkWidget::draw is located).
In particular, the following functions are gone:
- gdk_screen_get_default_colormap()
- gdk_screen_set_default_colormap()
- gdk_screen_get_system_colormap()
- gdk_screen_get_rgba_colormap()
This removes:
gtk_widget_set_default_colormap()
gtk_widget_get_default_colormap()
gtk_widget_get_default_visual()
Colormaps are gone, and the default visual is the system visual of the
default screen.
Add gtk_window_set_visual() and a "visual" property. This allows
changing the window visual to the rgba one and other awesome things
(like implementing the trayicon spec).
The 3 functions in question were:
- gdk_pixbuf_render_threshold_alpha()
- gdk_pixbuf_render_pixmap_and_mask()
- gdk_pixbuf_render_pixmap_and_mask_for_colormap()
All of them can be replaced using Cairo if they have to. The
functionality is only needed to talk to old X interfaces and normal apps
do fine without them.
