wxGraphicsContext

wxGraphicsContext

A wxGraphicsContext instance is the object that is drawn upon. It is created by a renderer using the CreateContext calls.., this can be either directly using a renderer instance, or indirectly using the static convenience CreateXXX functions of wxGraphicsContext that always delegate the task to the default renderer.

wxGraphicsBrush CreateRadialGradientBrush(wxDouble xo, wxDouble yo, wxDouble xc, wxDouble yc, wxDouble radius, const wxColour& oColor, const wxColour& cColor) const

Creates a native brush, having a radial gradient originating at (xo,yc) with color oColour and ends on a circle around (xc,yc) with radius r and color cColour

wxGraphicsContext::CreateLinearGradientBrush

wxGraphicsBrush CreateLinearGradientBrush(wxDouble x1, wxDouble y1, wxDouble x2, wxDouble y2, const wxColour&c1, const wxColour&c2) const

wxGraphicsContext::ResetClip

void ResetClip()

Resets the clipping to original shape.

wxGraphicsContext::DrawBitmap

void DrawBitmap(const wxBitmap& bmp, wxDouble x, wxDouble y, wxDouble w, wxDouble h)

Draws the bitmap. In case of a mono bitmap, this is treated as a mask and the current brushed is used for filling.

wxGraphicsContext::DrawEllipse

void DrawEllipse(wxDouble x, wxDouble y, wxDouble w, wxDouble h)

Draws an ellipse.

Draws a polygon.

wxGraphicsContext::DrawPath

void DrawPath(const wxGraphicsPath& path, int fillStyle = wxODDEVEN_RULE)

wxGraphicsContext::DrawText

void DrawText(const wxString& str, wxDouble x, wxDouble y, wxDouble angle)

wxGraphicsContext::StrokePath

void StrokePath(const wxGraphicsPath& path)

Strokes along a path with the current pen.
