Add signal GdkWindow::create-surface which allows to use any
surface type as storage for offscreen windows.
Test the new signal in tests/gdkoffscreenbox.c
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.
Now the window background is a cairo_pattern_t. The backends will try to
set this as good as they can on the windowing system, but no guarantees
are made on wether the windowing system supports the pattern.
Also gets rid of GDK_NO_BG as undefined behavior is not a good idea to
support, and GDK_NO_BG effectively made the window's contents undefined.
It wasn't effectively used in GTK anyway.
This removes gdk_window_shape_combine_mask() and
gdk_window_input_shape_combine_mask(). GdkBitmap is going away and a
replacement exists via the combine_region() functions and
gdk_cairo_region_create_from_surface().
They were added as accessors for 2.22 even though querying the
background wasn't possible previously. As GTK 3.0 will change background
handling, it doesn't make sense at all to expose these getters.
which also works for offscreen windows and their embedder.
Also add gdk_window_get_effective_parent() and
gdk_window_get_effective_toplevel() which are offscreen aware.
we now use gdk_offscreen_window_set_embedder() instead of a signal
to get the parent. This also replaces set_has_offscreen_changes.
Rename "parent" in all embedding related names to "embedder" to make it
more obviously different than the normal parent.
Rename gdk_window_get_offscreen_pixmap to gdk_offscreen_window_get_pixmap
to match the other offscreen calls.
Rename gdk_window_offscreen_children_changed to gdk_window_geometry_changed
as this is more descriptive.
You can call this if you have offscreen children and the geometry of
them changed. This will cause re-picking of the active window sending
enter and leave events as needed.
We want to be able to map any window coordinate to a root coordinate, not
just the origin, because you can't rely anymore on a simple translation
from window coordinates to parent with offscreen windows. This lets
us e.g. pop up menus in the right place even if they are popped up from
a no-window widget.
3 signals are for offscreen windows
get-offscreen-parent: Get the parent window an offscreen is embedded in
to-parent: Convert coordinates from offscreen to parent
from-parent: Convert coordinates from parent to offscreen
1 signal is for the window embedding offscreens:
pick-offscreen-child: This picks what (if any) offscreen is at a specific position
The last signal is only used if you call gdk_window_set_has_offscreen_children
to tell gdk that the window has embedded offscreen children.
Add get-pointer signal for offscreen window pointer getting
Apps using offscreen windows can connect to get-pointer on offscreen
windows in order to make gdk_window_get_pointer() return correct
values.
Add get-offscreen-parent signal
Add signals for from-parent and to-parent coordinate mapping
Add pick-offscreen-child signal
Unfortunately the old GdkWindowObject is public and accessed
from macros, etc. So, we publish a limited copy of GdkWindowObject
and use the full one internally when building gdk.
In the new world offscreen windows are not put in the hierarchy, but are
rather toplevels for themselves. Offscreen hooks don't make any sense
in this model.
