class Gtk::Snapshot

Overview

Gtk::Snapshot assists in creating Gsk::RenderNodes for widgets.

It functions in a similar way to a cairo context, and maintains a stack of render nodes and their associated transformations.

The node at the top of the stack is the one that gtk_snapshot_append_…() functions operate on. Use the gtk_snapshot_push_…() functions and Snapshot::pop to change the current node.

The typical way to obtain a Gtk::Snapshot object is as an argument to the Gtk::Widget#snapshot vfunc. If you need to create your own Gtk::Snapshot, use Gtk::Snapshot.new.

[View source]
def push_cross_fade(progress : Float64) : Nil #

Until the first call to Gtk::Snapshot#pop, the start image will be snapshot. After that call, the end image will be recorded until the second call to Gtk::Snapshot#pop.

Calling this function requires two subsequent calls to Gtk::Snapshot#pop.


[View source]
def push_gl_shader(shader : Gsk::GLShader, bounds : Graphene::Rect, take_args : GLib::Bytes) : Nil #

Push a Gsk::GLShaderNode.

The node uses the given Gsk::GLShader and uniform values Additionally this takes a list of n_children other nodes which will be passed to the Gsk::GLShaderNode.

The take_args argument is a block of data to use for uniform arguments, as per types and offsets defined by the shader. Normally this is generated by Gsk::GLShader#format_args or Gsk::ShaderArgsBuilder.

The snapshotter takes ownership of take_args, so the caller should not free it after this.

If the renderer doesn't support GL shaders, or if there is any problem when compiling the shader, then the node will draw pink. You should use Gsk::GLShader#compile to ensure the shader will work for the renderer before using it.

If the shader requires textures (see Gsk::GLShader#n_textures), then it is expected that you call Gtk::Snapshot#gl_shader_pop_texture the number of times that are required. Each of these calls will generate a node that is added as a child to the Gsk::GLShaderNode, which in turn will render these offscreen and pass as a texture to the shader.

Once all textures (if any) are pop:ed, you must call the regular Gtk::Snapshot#pop.

If you want to use pre-existing textures as input to the shader rather than rendering new ones, use Gtk::Snapshot#append_texture to push a texture node. These will be used directly rather than being re-rendered.

For details on how to write shaders, see Gsk::GLShader.

[View source]
def rotate(angle : Float32) : Nil #

Rotates @@snapshot's coordinate system by angle degrees in 2D space - or in 3D speak, rotates around the Z axis.

It is necessary to clear all saved states with corresponding calls to gtk_snapshot_restore().
