Method
GdkSurfacecreate_similar_surface
deprecated: 4.12
Declaration [src]
cairo_surface_t*
gdk_surface_create_similar_surface (
GdkSurface* surface,
cairo_content_t content,
int width,
int height
)
Description [src]
Create a new Cairo surface that is as compatible as possible with the
given surface.
For example the new surface will have the same fallback resolution
and font options as surface. Generally, the new surface will also
use the same backend as surface, unless that is not possible for
some reason. The type of the returned surface may be examined with cairo_surface_get_type().
Initially the surface contents are all 0 (transparent if contents have transparency, black otherwise.)
This function always returns a valid pointer, but it will return a
pointer to a “nil” surface if other is already in an error state
or any other error occurs.
Deprecated since: 4.12
Create a suitable cairo image surface yourself.
Parameters
content-
Type:
cairo_content_tThe content for the new surface.
width-
Type:
intWidth of the new surface.
height-
Type:
intHeight of the new surface.
Return value
Type: cairo_surface_t
A pointer to the newly allocated surface. The caller
owns the surface and should call cairo_surface_destroy() when done
with it.
| The caller of the method takes ownership of the returned data, and is responsible for freeing it. |
