Regions

Regions — Representing a pixel-aligned area

Types and Values

Description

Regions are a simple graphical data type representing an area of integer-aligned rectangles. They are often used on raster surfaces to track areas of interest, such as change or clip areas.

Functions

cairo_region_create ()

cairo_region_t *
cairo_region_create (void);

Allocates a new empty region object.

Returns

A newly allocated cairo_region_t. Free with cairo_region_destroy(). This function always returns a valid pointer; if memory cannot be allocated, then a special error object is returned where all operations on the object do nothing. You can check for this with cairo_region_status().

Since: 1.10


cairo_region_create_rectangle ()

cairo_region_t *
cairo_region_create_rectangle (const cairo_rectangle_int_t *rectangle);

Allocates a new region object containing rectangle .

Parameters

rectangle

a cairo_rectangle_int_t

 

Returns

A newly allocated cairo_region_t. Free with cairo_region_destroy(). This function always returns a valid pointer; if memory cannot be allocated, then a special error object is returned where all operations on the object do nothing. You can check for this with cairo_region_status().

Since: 1.10


cairo_region_create_rectangles ()

cairo_region_t *
cairo_region_create_rectangles (const cairo_rectangle_int_t *rects,
                                int count);

Allocates a new region object containing the union of all given rects .

Parameters

rects

an array of count rectangles

 

count

number of rectangles

 

Returns

A newly allocated cairo_region_t. Free with cairo_region_destroy(). This function always returns a valid pointer; if memory cannot be allocated, then a special error object is returned where all operations on the object do nothing. You can check for this with cairo_region_status().

Since: 1.10


cairo_region_copy ()

cairo_region_t *
cairo_region_copy (const cairo_region_t *original);

Allocates a new region object copying the area from original .

Parameters

original

a cairo_region_t

 

Returns

A newly allocated cairo_region_t. Free with cairo_region_destroy(). This function always returns a valid pointer; if memory cannot be allocated, then a special error object is returned where all operations on the object do nothing. You can check for this with cairo_region_status().

Since: 1.10

Types and Values

cairo_region_t

typedef struct _cairo_region cairo_region_t;

A cairo_region_t represents a set of integer-aligned rectangles.

It allows set-theoretical operations like cairo_region_union() and cairo_region_intersect() to be performed on them.

Memory management of cairo_region_t is done with cairo_region_reference() and cairo_region_destroy().
