Class SkCanvas

Canvas provides an interface for drawing, and how the drawing is clipped and transformed. Canvas contains a stack of Matrix and Clip values.

Canvas and Paint together provide the state to draw into Surface or Device. Each Canvas draw call transforms the geometry of the object by the concatenation of all Matrix values in the stack. The transformed geometry is clipped by the intersection of all of Clip values in the stack. The Canvas draw calls use Paint to supply drawing state such as Color, Typeface, text size, stroke width, Shader and so on.

To draw to a pixel-based destination, create Raster Surface or GPU Surface. Request Canvas from Surface to obtain the interface to draw. Canvas generated by Raster Surface draws to memory visible to the CPU. Canvas generated by GPU Surface uses Vulkan or OpenGL to draw to the GPU.

To draw to a document, obtain Canvas from SVG Canvas, Document PDF, or Picture Recorder. Document based Canvas and other Canvas Subclasses reference Device describing the destination.

Canvas can be constructed to draw to Bitmap without first creating Raster Surface. This approach may be deprecated in the future.

                                                  size_t rowBytes,
                                                  const SkSurfaceProps* props = nullptr)

Allocates raster Canvas that will draw directly into pixels.

Canvas is returned if all parameters are valid. Valid parameters include: info dimensions are zero or positive; info contains Color Type and Alpha Type supported by Raster Surface; pixels is not nullptr; rowBytes is zero or large enough to contain info width pixels of Color Type.

Pass zero for rowBytes to compute rowBytes from info width and size of pixel. If rowBytes is greater than zero, it must be equal to or greater than info width times bytes required for Color Type.

Pixel buffer size should be info height times computed rowBytes. Pixels are not initialized. To access pixels after drawing, call flush or peekPixels.

Parameters

`info`	width, height, Color Type, Alpha Type, Color Space, of Raster Surface; width, or height, or both, may be zero
`pixels`	pointer to destination pixels buffer
`rowBytes`	interval from one Surface row to the next, or zero
`props`	LCD striping orientation and setting for device independent fonts; may be nullptr

Return Value

Canvas if all parameters are valid; otherwise, nullptr

                                                     size_t rowBytes)

Allocates raster Canvas specified by inline image specification. Subsequent Canvas calls draw into pixels. Color Type is set to kN32_SkColorType. Alpha Type is set to kPremul_SkAlphaType. To access pixels after drawing, call flush or peekPixels.

Canvas is returned if all parameters are valid. Valid parameters include: width and height are zero or positive; pixels is not nullptr; rowBytes is zero or large enough to contain width pixels of kN32_SkColorType.

Pass zero for rowBytes to compute rowBytes from width and size of pixel. If rowBytes is greater than zero, it must be equal to or greater than width times bytes required for Color Type.

Pixel buffer size should be height times rowBytes.

Parameters

`width`	pixel column count on Raster Surface created; must be zero or greater
`height`	pixel row count on Raster Surface created; must be zero or greater
`pixels`	pointer to destination pixels buffer; buffer size should be height times rowBytes
`rowBytes`	interval from one Surface row to the next, or zero

SkCanvas

SkCanvas()

Creates an empty Canvas with no backing device or pixels, with a width and height of zero.

Return Value

empty Canvas

Example

Passes a placeholder to a function that requires one.

Example Output

paint draws text left to right
paint draws text top to bottom

SkCanvas

SkCanvas(int width, int height, const SkSurfaceProps* props = nullptr)

Creates Canvas of the specified dimensions without a Surface. Used by Subclasses with custom implementations for draw methods.

If props equals nullptr, Surface Properties are created with Surface Properties Legacy Font Host settings, which choose the pixel striping direction and order. Since a platform may dynamically change its direction when the device is rotated, and since a platform may have multiple monitors with different characteristics, it is best not to rely on this legacy behavior.

Parameters

`width`	zero or greater
`height`	zero or greater
`props`	LCD striping orientation and setting for device independent fonts; may be nullptr

Return Value

Canvas placeholder with dimensions

Example

Example Output

canvas is empty

SkCanvas

explicit SkCanvas(SkBaseDevice* device)

discard	makes Canvas contents undefined
flush	triggers execution of all pending draw operations

flush

void flush()

Triggers the immediate execution of all pending draw operations. If Canvas is associated with GPU Surface, resolves all pending GPU operations. If Canvas is associated with Raster Surface, has no effect; raster draw operations are never deferred.

getBaseLayerSize

virtual SkISize getBaseLayerSize() const

Gets the size of the base or root Layer in global canvas coordinates. The origin of the base Layer is always (0,0). The area available for drawing may be smaller (due to clipping or saveLayer).

size=20,30

makeSurface

sk_sp<SkSurface> makeSurface(const SkImageInfo& info, const SkSurfaceProps* props = nullptr)

Creates Surface matching info and props, and associates it with Canvas. Returns nullptr if no match found.

If props is nullptr, matches Surface Properties in Canvas. If props is nullptr and Canvas does not have Surface Properties, creates Surface with default Surface Properties.

Parameters

`info`	width, height, Color Type, Alpha Type, and Color Space
`props`	Surface Properties to match; may be nullptr to match Canvas

accessTopLayerPixels

void* accessTopLayerPixels(SkImageInfo* info, size_t* rowBytes, SkIPoint* origin = nullptr)

Returns the pixel base address, Image Info, rowBytes, and origin if the pixels can be read directly. The returned address is only valid while Canvas is in scope and unchanged. Any Canvas call or Surface call may invalidate the returned address and other returned values.

If pixels are inaccessible, info, rowBytes, and origin are unchanged.

Parameters

`info`	storage for writable pixels' Image Info; may be nullptr
`rowBytes`	storage for writable pixels' row bytes; may be nullptr
`origin`	storage for Canvas top Layer origin, its top-left corner; may be nullptr

Return Value

address of pixels, or nullptr if inaccessible

Example

Draws "" on the device. Then draws "" in Layer, and reads Layer to add a large dotted "". Finally blends Layer with the device.

The Layer and blended result appear on the CPU and GPU but the large dotted "" appear only on the CPU.

accessTopRasterHandle

SkRasterHandleAllocator::Handle accessTopRasterHandle() const

Returns custom context that tracks the Matrix and Clip.

Use Raster Handle Allocator to blend Skia drawing with custom drawing, typically performed by the host platform user interface. The custom context returned is generated by SkRasterHandleAllocator::MakeCanvas, which creates a custom canvas with raster storage for the drawing destination.

readPixels

bool readPixels(const SkImageInfo& dstInfo, void* dstPixels, size_t dstRowBytes, int srcX, int srcY)

Copies Rect of pixels from Canvas into dstPixels. Matrix and Clip are ignored.

Source Rect corners are (srcX, srcY) and (imageInfo.width(), imageInfo.height()). Destination Rect corners are (0, 0) and (dstInfo.width(), dstInfo.height()). Copies each readable pixel intersecting both rectangles, without scaling, converting to dstInfo.colorType() and dstInfo.alphaType() if required.

Pixels are readable when Device is raster, or backed by a GPU. Pixels are not readable when SkCanvas is returned by SkDocument::beginPage, returned by SkPictureRecorder::beginRecording, or Canvas is the base of a utility class like

Source and destination rectangles do not intersect.

Canvas pixels could not be converted to dstInfo.colorType() or dstInfo.alphaType().

Canvas pixels are not readable; for instance, Canvas is document-based.

dstRowBytes is too small to contain one row of pixels.

Example

A black circle drawn on a blue background provides an image to copy. readPixels copies one quarter of the canvas into each of the four corners. The copied quarter circles overdraw the original circle.

Example

Canvas returned by Raster Surface has Premultiplied pixel values. clear takes Unpremultiplied input with Color Alpha equal 0x80 and Color RGB equal 0x55, 0xAA, 0xFF. Color RGB is multiplied by Color Alpha to generate Premultiplied value 0x802B5580. readPixels converts pixel back to Unpremultiplied value 0x8056A9FF, introducing error.

Copies each readable pixel intersecting both rectangles, without scaling, converting to imageInfo.colorType() and imageInfo.alphaType() if required.

Pixels are writable when Device is raster, or backed by a GPU. Pixels are not writable when SkCanvas is returned by SkDocument::beginPage, returned by SkPictureRecorder::beginRecording, or Canvas is the base of a utility class like

Source and destination rectangles do not intersect.

pixels could not be converted to Canvas imageInfo.colorType() or imageInfo.alphaType().

Example

State Stack

Canvas maintains a stack of state that allows hierarchical drawing, commonly used to implement windows and views. The initial state has an identity matrix and and an infinite clip. Even with a wide-open clip, drawing is constrained by the bounds of the Canvas Surface or Device.

Canvas savable state consists of Clip, Matrix, and Draw Filter. Clip describes the area that may be drawn to. Matrix transforms the geometry. Draw Filter (deprecated on most platforms) modifies the paint before drawing.

save, saveLayer, saveLayerPreserveLCDTextRequests, and saveLayerAlpha save state and return the depth of the stack.

restore, restoreToCount, and

Example

Draw to ever smaller clips; then restore drawing to full canvas. Note that the second clipRect is not permitted to enlarge Clip.

Each Clip uses the current Matrix for its coordinates.

Example

While clipRect is given the same rectangle twice, Matrix makes the second clipRect draw at half the size of the first.

save

int save()

Saves Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter (Draw Filter deprecated on most platforms). Calling restore discards changes to Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter, restoring the Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter to their state when save was called.

Matrix may be changed by translate, scale, rotate, skew, concat, setMatrix, and resetMatrix. Clip may be changed by clipRect, clipRRect, clipPath, clipRegion.

Saved Canvas state is put on a stack; multiple calls to save should be balance by an equal number of calls to restore.

Call restoreToCount with result to restore this and subsequent saves.

Return Value

depth of saved stack

Example

The black square is translated 50 pixels down and to the right. Restoring Canvas state removes translate from Canvas stack; the red square is not translated, and is drawn at the origin.

restore

void restore()

Removes changes to Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter since Canvas state was last saved. The state is removed from the stack.

Does nothing if the stack is empty.

Example

getSaveCount

int getSaveCount() const

Returns the number of saved states, each containing: Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter. Equals the number of save calls less the number of restore calls plus one. The save count of a new canvas is one.

Return Value

depth of save state stack

Example

Example Output

depth = 1
depth = 2
depth = 1

restoreToCount

void restoreToCount(int saveCount)

Restores state to Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter values when save, saveLayer, saveLayerPreserveLCDTextRequests, or saveLayerAlpha returned saveCount.

Does nothing if saveCount is greater than state stack count. Restores state to initial values if saveCount is less than or equal to one.

Parameters

saveCount depth of state stack to restore

Example

Example Output

depth = 1
depth = 3
depth = 1

Layer

Layer allocates a temporary Bitmap to draw into. When the drawing is complete, the Bitmap is drawn into the Canvas.

Layer is saved in a stack along with other saved state. When state with a Layer is restored, the Bitmap is drawn into the previous Layer.

Layer may be initialized with the contents of the previous Layer. When Layer is restored, its Bitmap can be modified by Paint passed to Layer to apply Color Alpha, Color Filter, Image Filter, and Blend Mode.

saveLayer

int saveLayer(const SkRect* bounds, const SkPaint* paint)

Saves Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter (Draw Filter deprecated on most platforms), and allocates a Bitmap for subsequent drawing. Calling restore discards changes to Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter, and draws the Bitmap.

Matrix may be changed by translate, scale, rotate, skew, concat, setMatrix, and resetMatrix. Clip may be changed by clipRect, clipRRect, clipPath, clipRegion.

Rect bounds suggests but does not define the Bitmap size. To clip drawing to a specific rectangle, use clipRect.

Optional Paint paint applies Color Alpha, Color Filter, Image Filter, and Blend Mode when restore is called.

Call restoreToCount with returned value to restore this and subsequent saves.

Parameters

`bounds`	hint to limit the size of the Layer; may be nullptr
`paint`	graphics state for Layer; may be nullptr

Return Value

depth of saved stack

Example

Rectangles are blurred by Image Filter when restore draws Layer to main Canvas.

Parameters

`bounds`	hint to limit the size of Layer; may be nullptr
`paint`	graphics state for Layer; may be nullptr

Return Value

depth of saved stack

Example

Rectangles are blurred by Image Filter when restore draws Layer to main Canvas. The red rectangle is clipped; it does not fully fit on Layer. Image Filter blurs past edge of Layer so red rectangle is blurred on all sides.

saveLayerPreserveLCDTextRequests

int saveLayerPreserveLCDTextRequests(const SkRect* bounds, const SkPaint* paint)

Saves Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter (Draw Filter deprecated on most platforms), and allocates a Bitmap for subsequent drawing. LCD Text is preserved when the Layer is drawn to the prior Layer.

Calling restore discards changes to Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter, and draws Layer.

Matrix may be changed by translate, scale, rotate, skew, concat, setMatrix, and resetMatrix. Clip may be changed by clipRect, clipRRect, clipPath, clipRegion. Rect bounds suggests but does not define the Layer size. To clip drawing to a specific rectangle, use clipRect.

Optional Paint paint applies Color Alpha, Color Filter, Image Filter, and Blend Mode when restore is called.

Call restoreToCount with returned value to restore this and subsequent saves.

Draw text on an opaque background so that LCD Text blends correctly with the prior Layer. LCD Text drawn on a background with transparency may result in incorrect blending.

Parameters

`bounds`	hint to limit the size of Layer; may be nullptr
`paint`	graphics state for Layer; may be nullptr

Return Value

depth of saved stack

Example

saveLayerAlpha

int saveLayerAlpha(const SkRect* bounds, U8CPU alpha)

Saves Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter (Draw Filter deprecated on most platforms), and allocates Bitmap for subsequent drawing.

Calling restore discards changes to Matrix, Clip, and Draw Filter, and blends Layer with alpha opacity onto prior Layer.

Matrix may be changed by translate, scale, rotate, skew, concat, setMatrix, and resetMatrix. Clip may be changed by clipRect, clipRRect, clipPath, clipRegion.

Rect bounds suggests but does not define Layer size. To clip drawing to a specific rectangle, use clipRect.

alpha of zero is fully transparent, 255 is fully opaque.

Call restoreToCount with returned value to restore this and subsequent saves.

Parameters

`bounds`	hint to limit the size of Layer; may be nullptr
`alpha`	opacity of Layer

Return Value

depth of saved stack

Example

Enum SkCanvas::_anonymous

enum {
kPreserveLCDText SaveLayerFlag = 1 << 1,
kInitWithPrevious SaveLayerFlag = 1 << 2,
kDontClipToLayer Legacy SaveLayerFlag = kDontClipToLayer_PrivateSaveLayerFlag,
};

SaveLayerFlags provides options that may be used in any combination in SaveLayerRec, defining how Layer allocated by saveLayer operates.

Constants

`SkCanvas::kPreserveLCDText_SaveLayerFlag`	2	Creates Layer for LCD text. Flag is ignored if Layer Paint contains Image Filter or Color Filter.
`SkCanvas::kInitWithPrevious_SaveLayerFlag`	4	Initializes Layer with the contents of the previous Layer.
`SkCanvas::kDontClipToLayer_Legacy_SaveLayerFlag`	0x80000000	soon

Example

Canvas Layer captures red and blue circles scaled up by four. scalePaint blends Layer back with transparency.

Struct SkCanvas::SaveLayerRec

struct SaveLayerRec {
SaveLayerRec*(...

const SkRect*           fBounds;
const SkPaint*          fPaint;
const SkImageFilter*    fBackdrop;
SaveLayerFlags          fSaveLayerFlags;
};

SaveLayerRec contains the state used to create the Layer.

const SkRect* fBounds

fBounds is used as a hint to limit the size of Layer; may be nullptr. fBounds suggests but does not define Layer size. To clip drawing to a specific rectangle, use clipRect.

const SkPaint* fPaint

fPaint modifies how Layer overlays the prior Layer; may be nullptr. Color Alpha, Blend Mode, Color Filter, Draw Looper, Image Filter, and Mask Filter affect Layer draw.

const SkImageFilter* fBackdrop

fBackdrop applies Image Filter to the prior Layer when copying to the Layer; may be nullptr. Use kInitWithPrevious SaveLayerFlag to copy the prior Layer without an Image Filter.

const SkImage* fClipMask

restore clips Layer by the Color Alpha channel of fClipMask when Layer is copied to Device. fClipMask may be nullptr. .

const SkMatrix* fClipMatrix

fClipMatrix transforms fClipMask before it clips Layer. If fClipMask describes a translucent gradient, it may be scaled and rotated without introducing artifacts. fClipMatrix may be nullptr.

SaveLayerFlags fSaveLayerFlags

fSaveLayerFlags are used to create Layer without transparency, create Layer for LCD text, and to create Layer with the contents of the previous Layer.

Example

Canvas Layer captures a red Anti-aliased circle and a blue Aliased circle scaled up by four. After drawing another red circle without scaling on top, the Layer is transferred to the main canvas.

SaveLayerRec

SaveLayerRec()

Sets fBounds, fPaint, and fBackdrop to nullptr. Clears fSaveLayerFlags.

Return Value

empty SaveLayerRec

Example

The example draws an image, and saves it into a Layer with kInitWithPrevious SaveLayerFlag. Next it punches a hole in Layer and restore with SkBlendMode::kPlus. Where Layer was cleared, the original image will draw unchanged. Outside of the circle the mandrill is brightened.

Matrix

translate

void translate(SkScalar dx, SkScalar dy)

Translate Matrix by dx along the x-axis and dy along the y-axis.

Mathematically, replace Matrix with a translation matrix Premultiplied with Matrix.

This has the effect of moving the drawing by (dx, dy) before transforming the result with Matrix.

Parameters

`dx`	distance to translate in x
`dy`	distance to translate in y

Example

scale followed by translate produces different results from translate followed by scale.

The blue stroke follows translate of (50, 50); a black fill follows scale of (2, 1/2.f). After restoring the clip, which resets Matrix, a red frame follows the same scale of (2, 1/2.f); a gray fill follows translate of (50, 50).

scale

void scale(SkScalar sx, SkScalar sy)

Scale Matrix by sx on the x-axis and sy on the y-axis.

Mathematically, replace Matrix with a scale matrix Premultiplied with Matrix.

This has the effect of scaling the drawing by (sx, sy) before transforming the result with Matrix.

Parameters

`sx`	amount to scale in x
`sy`	amount to scale in y

Example

rotate

void rotate(SkScalar degrees)

Rotate Matrix by degrees. Positive degrees rotates clockwise.

Mathematically, replace Matrix with a rotation matrix Premultiplied with Matrix.

This has the effect of rotating the drawing by degrees before transforming the result with Matrix.

Parameters

degrees amount to rotate, in degrees

Example

Draw clock hands at time 5:10. The hour hand and minute hand point up and are rotated clockwise.

Parameters

`degrees`	amount to rotate, in degrees
`px`	x-coordinate of the point to rotate about
`py`	y-coordinate of the point to rotate about

Example

skew

void skew(SkScalar sx, SkScalar sy)

Skew Matrix by sx on the x-axis and sy on the y-axis. A positive value of sx skews the drawing right as y increases; a positive value of sy skews the drawing down as x increases.

Mathematically, replace Matrix with a skew matrix Premultiplied with Matrix.

This has the effect of skewing the drawing by (sx, sy) before transforming the result with Matrix.

Parameters

`sx`	amount to skew in x
`sy`	amount to skew in y

Example

Black text mimics an oblique text style by using a negative skew in x that shifts the geometry to the right as the y values decrease. Red text uses a positive skew in y to shift the geometry down as the x values increase. Blue text combines x and y skew to rotate and scale.

void setMatrix(const SkMatrix& matrix)

Replace Matrix with matrix. Unlike concat, any prior matrix state is overwritten.

Parameters

matrix matrix to copy, replacing existing Matrix

Example

resetMatrix

void resetMatrix()

Sets Matrix to the identity matrix. Any prior matrix state is overwritten.

Example

getTotalMatrix

const SkMatrix& getTotalMatrix() const

Returns Matrix. This does not account for translation by Device or Surface.

Return Value

Matrix in Canvas

Example

Example Output

isIdentity true

Clip

Clip is built from a stack of clipping paths. Each Path in the stack can be constructed from one or more Path Contour elements. The Path Contour may be composed of any number of Path Verb segments. Each Path Contour forms a closed area; Path Fill Type defines the area enclosed by Path Contour.

Clip stack of Path elements successfully restrict the Path area. Each Path is transformed by Matrix, then intersected with or subtracted from the prior Clip to form the replacement Clip. Use SkClipOp::kDifference to subtract Path from Clip; use SkClipOp::kIntersect to intersect Path with Clip.

A clipping Path may be Anti-aliased; if Path, after transformation, is composed of horizontal and vertical lines, clearing Anti-alias allows whole pixels to either be inside or outside the clip. The fastest drawing has a Aliased, rectangular clip.

If clipping Path has Anti-alias set, clip may partially clip a pixel, requiring that drawing blend partially with the destination along the edge. A rotated rectangular Anti-aliased clip looks smoother but draws slower.

Clip can combine with Rect and Round Rect primitives; like Path, these are transformed by Matrix before they are combined with Clip.

Clip can combine with Region. Region is assumed to be in Device coordinates and is unaffected by Matrix.

Example

Draw a red circle with an Aliased clip and an Anti-aliased clip. Use an image filter to zoom into the pixels drawn. The edge of the Aliased clip fully draws pixels in the red circle. The edge of the Anti-aliased clip partially draws pixels in the red circle.

clipRect

void clipRect(const SkRect& rect, SkClipOp op, bool doAntiAlias)

Replace Clip with the intersection or difference of Clip and rect, with an Aliased or Anti-aliased clip edge. rect is transformed by Matrix before it is combined with Clip.

Parameters

`rect`	Rect to combine with Clip
`op`	Clip Op to apply to Clip
`doAntiAlias`	true if Clip is to be Anti-aliased

Example

Parameters

`rect`	Rect to combine with Clip
`op`	Clip Op to apply to Clip

Example

Parameters

`rect`	Rect to combine with Clip
`doAntiAlias`	true if Clip is to be Anti-aliased

Example

A circle drawn in pieces looks uniform when drawn Aliased. The same circle pieces blend with pixels more than once when Anti-aliased, visible as a thin pair of lines through the right circle.

androidFramework_setDeviceClipRestriction

void androidFramework_setDeviceClipRestriction(const SkIRect& rect)

Sets the maximum clip rectangle, which can be set by clipRect, clipRRect and clipPath and intersect the current clip with the specified rect. The maximum clip affects only future clipping operations; it is not retroactive. The clip restriction is not recorded in pictures.

Pass an empty rect to disable maximum clip.

Parameters

rect maximum allowed clip in device coordinates

clipRRect

void clipRRect(const SkRRect& rrect, SkClipOp op, bool doAntiAlias)

Replace Clip with the intersection or difference of Clip and rrect, with an Aliased or Anti-aliased clip edge. rrect is transformed by Matrix before it is combined with Clip.

Parameters

`rrect`	Round Rect to combine with Clip
`op`	Clip Op to apply to Clip
`doAntiAlias`	true if Clip is to be Anti-aliased

Example

Parameters

`rrect`	Round Rect to combine with Clip
`op`	Clip Op to apply to Clip

Example

Parameters

`rrect`	Round Rect to combine with Clip
`doAntiAlias`	true if Clip is to be Anti-aliased

Example

clipPath

void clipPath(const SkPath& path, SkClipOp op, bool doAntiAlias)

Replace Clip with the intersection or difference of Clip and path, with an Aliased or Anti-aliased clip edge. Path Fill Type determines if path describes the area inside or outside its contours; and if Path Contour overlaps itself or another Path Contour, whether the overlaps form part of the area. path is transformed by Matrix before it is combined with Clip.

Parameters

`path`	Path to combine with Clip
`op`	Clip Op to apply to Clip
`doAntiAlias`	true if Clip is to be Anti-aliased

Example

Top figure uses SkPath::kInverseWinding FillType and SkClipOp::kDifference; area outside clip is subtracted from circle.

Bottom figure uses SkPath::kWinding FillType and SkClipOp::kIntersect; area inside clip is intersected with circle.

Parameters

`path`	Path to combine with Clip
`op`	Clip Op to apply to Clip

Example

Overlapping Rects form a clip. When clip Path Fill Type is set to SkPath::kWinding FillType, the overlap is included. Set to SkPath::kEvenOdd FillType, the overlap is excluded and forms a hole.

Parameters

`path`	Path to combine with Clip
`doAntiAlias`	true if Clip is to be Anti-aliased

Example

Clip loops over itself covering its center twice. When clip Path Fill Type is set to SkPath::kWinding FillType, the overlap is included. Set to SkPath::kEvenOdd FillType, the overlap is excluded and forms a hole.

setAllowSimplifyClip

void setAllowSimplifyClip(bool allow)

Only used for testing. Set to simplify clip stack using PathOps.

clipRegion

void clipRegion(const SkRegion& deviceRgn, SkClipOp op = SkClipOp::kIntersect)

Parameters

`deviceRgn`	Region to combine with Clip
`op`	Clip Op to apply to Clip

true if rect, transformed by Matrix, does not intersect Clip

Example

Example Output

quickReject true
quickReject false

Return Value

true if path, transformed by Matrix, does not intersect Clip

Example

Example Output

quickReject true

Unpremultiplied Color ARGB

Example

discard

void discard()

Make Canvas contents undefined. Subsequent calls that read Canvas pixels, such as drawing with SkBlendMode, return undefined results. discard does not change Clip or Matrix.

discard may do nothing, depending on the implementation of Surface or Device that created Canvas.

discard allows optimized performance on subsequent draws by removing cached data associated with Surface or Device. It is not necessary to call discard once done with Canvas; any cached data is deleted when owning Surface or Device is deleted.

drawPaint

void drawPaint(const SkPaint& paint)

Fill Clip with Paint paint. Paint components Mask Filter, Shader, Color Filter, Image Filter, and Blend Mode affect drawing; Path Effect in paint is ignored.

Parameters

paint graphics state used to fill Canvas

Example

Enum SkCanvas::PointMode

enum PointMode {
kPoints PointMode,
kLines PointMode,
kPolygon PointMode,
};

Selects if an array of points are drawn as discrete points, as lines, or as an open polygon.

Constants

`SkCanvas::kPoints_PointMode`	0	Draw each point separately.
`SkCanvas::kLines_PointMode`	1	Draw each pair of points as a line segment.
`SkCanvas::kPolygon_PointMode`	2	Draw the array of points as a open polygon.

Example

The upper left corner shows three squares when drawn as points. The upper right corner shows one line; when drawn as lines, two points are required per line. The lower right corner shows two lines; when draw as polygon, no miter is drawn at the corner. The lower left corner shows two lines with a miter when path contains polygon.

drawPoints

void drawPoints(PointMode mode, size_t count, const SkPoint pts[], const SkPaint& paint)

Draw pts using Clip, Matrix and Paint paint. count is the number of points; if count is less than one, has no effect. mode may be one of: kPoints PointMode, kLines PointMode, or kPolygon PointMode.

If mode is kPoints PointMode, the shape of point drawn depends on paint Paint Stroke Cap. If paint is set to SkPaint::kRound Cap, each point draws a circle of diameter Paint Stroke Width. If paint is set to SkPaint::kSquare Cap or SkPaint::kButt Cap, each point draws a square of width and height Paint Stroke Width.

If mode is kLines PointMode, each pair of points draws a line segment. One line is drawn for every two points; each point is used once. If count is odd, the final point is ignored.

If mode is kPolygon PointMode, each adjacent pair of points draws a line segment. count minus one lines are drawn; the first and last point are used once.

Each line segment respects paint Paint Stroke Cap and Paint Stroke Width. Paint Style is ignored, as if were set to SkPaint::kStroke Style.

Always draws each element one at a time; is not affected by Paint Stroke Join, and unlike drawPath, does not create a mask from all points and lines before drawing.

Parameters

`mode`	whether pts draws points or lines
`count`	number of points in the array
`pts`	array of points to draw
`paint`	stroke, blend, color, and so on, used to draw

The third column draws points as a polygon.

The fourth column draws points as a polygonal path.

The first row uses a round cap and round join.

The second row uses a square cap and a miter join.

The third row uses a butt cap and a bevel join.

The transparent color makes multiple line draws visible; the path is drawn all at once.

drawPoint

void drawPoint(SkScalar x, SkScalar y, const SkPaint& paint)

Draw point at (x, y) using Clip, Matrix and Paint paint.

The shape of point drawn depends on paint Paint Stroke Cap. If paint is set to SkPaint::kRound Cap, draw a circle of diameter Paint Stroke Width. If paint is set to SkPaint::kSquare Cap or SkPaint::kButt Cap, draw a square of width and height Paint Stroke Width. Paint Style is ignored, as if were set to SkPaint::kStroke Style.

Arc is part of Oval bounded by oval, sweeping from startAngle to startAngle plus sweepAngle. startAngle and sweepAngle are in degrees.

startAngle of zero places start point at the right middle edge of oval. A positive sweepAngle places Arc end point clockwise from start point; a negative sweepAngle places Arc end point counterclockwise from start point. sweepAngle may exceed 360 degrees, a full circle. If useCenter is true, draw a wedge that includes lines from oval center to Arc end points. If useCenter is false, draw Arc between end points.

If Rect oval is empty or sweepAngle is zero, nothing is drawn.

Parameters

void drawRoundRect(const SkRect& rect, SkScalar rx, SkScalar ry, const SkPaint& paint)

Draw Round Rect bounded by Rect rect, with corner radii (rx, ry) using Clip, Matrix, and Paint paint.

In paint: Paint Style determines if Round Rect is stroked or filled; if stroked, Paint Stroke Width describes the line thickness. If rx or ry are less than zero, they are treated as if they are zero. If rx plus ry exceeds rect width or rect height, radii are scaled down to fit. If rx and ry are zero, Round Rect is drawn as Rect and if stroked is affected by Paint Stroke Join.

drawPath

void drawPath(const SkPath& path, const SkPaint& paint)

Draw Path path using Clip, Matrix, and Paint paint. Path contains an array of Path Contour, each of which may be open or closed.

In paint: Paint Style determines if Round Rect is stroked or filled: if filled, Path Fill Type determines whether Path Contour describes inside or outside of fill; if stroked, Paint Stroke Width describes the line thickness, Paint Stroke Cap describes line ends, and Paint Stroke Join describes how corners are drawn.

Parameters

`path`	Path to draw
`paint`	stroke, blend, color, and so on, used to draw

Example

Top rows draw stroked path with combinations of joins and caps. The open contour is affected by caps; the closed contour is affected by joins. Bottom row draws fill the same for open and closed contour. First bottom column shows winding fills overlap. Second bottom column shows even odd fills exclude overlap. Third bottom column shows inverse winding fills area outside both contours.

Draw Image

drawImage, drawImageRect, and drawImageNine can be called with a bare pointer or a smart pointer as a convenience. The pairs of calls are otherwise identical.

drawImage

void drawImage(const SkImage* image, SkScalar left, SkScalar top, const SkPaint* paint = nullptr)

Draw Image image, with its top-left corner at (left, top), using Clip, Matrix, and optional Paint paint.

If paint is supplied, apply Color Filter, Color Alpha, Image Filter, Blend Mode, and Draw Looper. If image is kAlpha_8_SkColorType, apply Shader. If paint contains Mask Filter, generate mask from image bounds. If generated mask extends beyond image bounds, replicate image edge colors, just as Shader made from SkImage::makeShader with SkShader::kClamp TileMode set replicates the image edge color when it samples outside of its bounds.

Parameters

`image`	uncompressed rectangular map of pixels
`left`	left side of image
`top`	top side of image
`paint`	Paint containing Blend Mode, Color Filter, Image Filter, and so on; or nullptr

Example

Parameters

`image`	uncompressed rectangular map of pixels
`left`	left side of image
`top`	pop side of image
`paint`	Paint containing Blend Mode, Color Filter, Image Filter, and so on; or nullptr

Example

Enum SkCanvas::SrcRectConstraint

enum SrcRectConstraint {
kStrict SrcRectConstraint,
kFast SrcRectConstraint,
};

SrcRectConstraint controls the behavior at the edge of source Rect, provided to drawImageRect, trading off speed for precision.

Image Filter in Paint may sample multiple pixels in the image. Source Rect restricts the bounds of pixels that may be read. Image Filter may slow down if it cannot read outside the bounds, when sampling near the edge of source Rect. SrcRectConstraint specifies whether an Image Filter is allowed to read pixels outside source Rect.

Constants

`SkCanvas::kStrict_SrcRectConstraint`	Requires Image_Filter to respect source Rect,	sampling only inside of its bounds, possibly with a performance penalty.
`SkCanvas::kFast_SrcRectConstraint`	Permits Image_Filter to sample outside of source Rect	by half the width of Image Filter, permitting it to run faster but with error at the image edges.

Example

redBorder contains a black and white checkerboard bordered by red. redBorder is drawn scaled by 16 on the left. The middle and right bitmaps are filtered checkerboards. Drawing the checkerboard with kStrict SrcRectConstraint shows only a blur of black and white. Drawing the checkerboard with kFast SrcRectConstraint allows red to bleed in the corners.

drawImageRect

void drawImageRect(const SkImage* image, const SkRect& src, const SkRect& dst, const SkPaint* paint,
                   SrcRectConstraint constraint = kStrict_SrcRectConstraint)

Draw Rect src of Image image, scaled and translated to fill Rect dst. Additionally transform draw using Clip, Matrix, and optional Paint paint.

If generated mask extends beyond image bounds, replicate image edge colors, just as Shader made from SkImage::makeShader with SkShader::kClamp TileMode set replicates the image edge color when it samples outside of its bounds.

constraint set to kStrict SrcRectConstraint limits Paint Filter Quality to sample within src; set to kFast SrcRectConstraint allows sampling outside to improve performance.

Parameters

`image`	Image containing pixels, dimensions, and format
`src`	source Rect of image to draw from
`dst`	destination Rect of image to draw to
`paint`	Paint containing Blend Mode, Color Filter, Image Filter, and so on; or nullptr
`constraint`	filter strictly within src or draw faster

Example

The left bitmap draws with Paint default kNone_SkFilterQuality, and stays within its bounds; there is no bleeding with kFast SrcRectConstraint. the middle and right bitmaps draw with kLow_SkFilterQuality; with kStrict SrcRectConstraint, the filter remains within the checkerboard, and with kFast SrcRectConstraint red bleeds on the edges.

Parameters

int             fXCount;
int             fYCount;
const SkIRect*  fBounds;
const SkColor*  fColors;
};

Lattice divides Bitmap or Image into a rectangular grid. Grid entries on even columns and even rows are fixed; these entries are always drawn at their original size if the destination is large enough. If the destination side is too small to hold the fixed entries, all fixed entries are proportionately scaled down to fit. The grid entries not on even columns and rows are scaled to fit the remaining space, if any.

Enum SkCanvas::Lattice::RectType

enum RectType : uint8_t {
kDefault = 0,
kTransparent,
kFixedColor,
};

Optional setting per rectangular grid entry to make it transparent, or to fill the grid entry with a color.

Constants

`SkCanvas::Lattice::kDefault`	0	Draws Bitmap into lattice rectangle.
`SkCanvas::Lattice::kTransparent`	1	Skips lattice rectangle by making it transparent.
`SkCanvas::Lattice::kFixedColor`	2	Draws one of fColors into lattice rectangle.

const int* fXDivs

Array of x-coordinates that divide the bitmap vertically. Array entries must be unique, increasing, greater than or equal to fBounds left edge, and less than fBounds right edge. Set the first element to fBounds left to collapse the left column of fixed grid entries.

const int* fYDivs

Array of y-coordinates that divide the bitmap horizontally. Array entries must be unique, increasing, greater than or equal to fBounds top edge, and less than fBounds bottom edge. Set the first element to fBounds top to collapse the top row of fixed grid entries.

const RectType* fRectTypes

Optional array of fill types, one per rectangular grid entry: array length must be( fXCount + 1) * (fYCount + 1) .

int fYCount

Number of entries in fYDivs array; one less than the number of vertical divisions.

const SkIRect* fBounds

Optional subset IRect source to draw from. If nullptr, source bounds is dimensions of Bitmap or Image.

Draw Bitmap bitmap stretched proportionally to fit into Rect dst.

Lattice lattice divides bitmap into a rectangular grid. Each intersection of an even-numbered row and column is fixed; like the corners of drawBitmapNine, fixed lattice elements never scale larger than their initial size and shrink proportionately when all fixed elements exceed the bitmap dimension. All other grid elements scale to fill the available space, if any.

Additionally transform draw using Clip, Matrix, and optional Paint paint.

Draw text on Path path, using Clip, Matrix, and Paint paint.

Origin of text is at distance hOffset along the path, offset by a perpendicular vector of length vOffset. If the path section corresponding the glyph advance is curved, the glyph is drawn curved to match; control points in the glyph are mapped to projected points parallel to the path. If the text advance is larger than the path length, the excess text is clipped.

text meaning depends on Paint Text Encoding; by default, text is encoded as UTF-8.
