gdkPixbufRenderToDrawableAlpha: gdkPixbufRenderToDrawableAlpha

Description

Renders a rectangular portion of a pixbuf to a drawable. The destination drawable must have a colormap. All windows have a colormap, however, pixmaps only have colormap by default if they were created with a non-NULL window argument. Otherwise a colormap must be set on them with gdk_drawable_set_colormap. WARNING: gdk_pixbuf_render_to_drawable_alpha has been deprecated since version 2.4 and should not be used in newly-written code. This function is obsolete. Use gdkDrawPixbuf instead.

Usage

gdkPixbufRenderToDrawableAlpha(object, drawable, src.x = 0, src.y = 0,  dest.x, dest.y, width = -1, height = -1, alpha.mode = NULL,  alpha.threshold = NULL, dither = "GDK_RGB_DITHER_NORMAL",  x.dither = 0, y.dither = 0)

Arguments

object

A pixbuf.

drawable

Destination drawable.

src.x

Source X coordinate within pixbuf.

src.y

Source Y coordinates within pixbuf.

dest.x

Destination X coordinate within drawable.

dest.y

Destination Y coordinate within drawable.

width

Width of region to render, in pixels, or -1 to use pixbuf width.

height

Height of region to render, in pixels, or -1 to use pixbuf height.

alpha.mode

Ignored. Present for backwards compatibility.

dither

Dithering mode for GdkRGB.

X offset for dither.

y.dither

Details

On older X servers, rendering pixbufs with an alpha channel involves round trips to the X server, and may be somewhat slow.
