Methods

drawWindowGetState

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> IO [WindowState]	returns `DrawWindow` flags
Gets the bitwise OR of the currently active drawWindow state flags, from the `WindowState` enumeration.

drawWindowClear :: DrawWindowClass self => self -> IO ()

Clears an entire DrawWindow to the background color or background pixmap.

drawWindowClearArea

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> Int	`x` - x coordinate of rectangle to clear
-> Int	`y` - y coordinate of rectangle to clear
-> Int	`width` - width of rectangle to clear
-> Int	`height` - height of rectangle to clear
-> IO ()
Clears an area of `DrawWindow` to the background color or background pixmap.

drawWindowClearAreaExpose

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> Int	`x` - x coordinate of rectangle to clear
-> Int	`y` - y coordinate of rectangle to clear
-> Int	`width` - width of rectangle to clear
-> Int	`height` - height of rectangle to clear
-> IO ()
Like `drawWindowClearArea`, but also generates an expose event for the cleared area.

drawWindowRaise :: DrawWindowClass self => self -> IO ()

Raises DrawWindow to the top of the Z-order (stacking order), so that other drawWindows with the same parent drawWindow appear below DrawWindow. This is true whether or not the drawWindows are visible.

If DrawWindow is a toplevel, the window manager may choose to deny the request to move the drawWindow in the Z-order, drawWindowRaise only requests the restack, does not guarantee it.

drawWindowLower :: DrawWindowClass self => self -> IO ()

Lowers DrawWindow to the bottom of the Z-order (stacking order), so that other windows with the same parent window appear above DrawWindow. This is true whether or not the other windows are visible.

If DrawWindow is a toplevel, the window manager may choose to deny the request to move the drawWindow in the Z-order, drawWindowLower only requests the restack, does not guarantee it.

Note that a widget is raised automatically when it is mapped, thus you need to call drawWindowLower after Graphics.UI.Gtk.Abstract.Widget.widgetShow if the window should not appear above other windows.

drawWindowBeginPaintRect

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> Rectangle	`rectangle` - rectangle you intend to draw to
-> IO ()
A convenience wrapper around `drawWindowBeginPaintRegion` which creates a rectangular region for you. See `drawWindowBeginPaintRegion` for details.

drawWindowBeginPaintRegion

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> Region	`region` - region you intend to draw to
-> IO ()
Indicate that you are beginning the process of redrawing `region`. A backing store (offscreen buffer) large enough to contain `region` will be created. The backing store will be initialized with the background color or background pixmap for `DrawWindow`. Then, all drawing operations performed on `DrawWindow` will be diverted to the backing store. When you call `drawWindowEndPaint`, the backing store will be copied to `DrawWindow`, making it visible onscreen. Only the part of `DrawWindow` contained in `region` will be modified; that is, drawing operations are clipped to `region`. The net result of all this is to remove flicker, because the user sees the finished product appear all at once when you call `drawWindowEndPaint`. If you draw to `DrawWindow` directly without calling `drawWindowBeginPaintRegion`, the user may see flicker as individual drawing operations are performed in sequence. The clipping and background-initializing features of `drawWindowBeginPaintRegion` are conveniences for the programmer, so you can avoid doing that work yourself. When using GTK+, the widget system automatically places calls to `drawWindowBeginPaintRegion` and `drawWindowEndPaint` around emissions of the `expose_event` signal. That is, if you're writing an expose event handler, you can assume that the exposed area in `eventRegion` has already been cleared to the window background, is already set as the clip region, and already has a backing store. Therefore in most cases, application code need not call `drawWindowBeginPaintRegion`. (You can disable the automatic calls around expose events on a widget-by-widget basis by calling `widgetSetDoubleBuffered`.) If you call this function multiple times before calling the matching `drawWindowEndPaint`, the backing stores are pushed onto a stack. `drawWindowEndPaint` copies the topmost backing store onscreen, subtracts the topmost region from all other regions in the stack, and pops the stack. All drawing operations affect only the topmost backing store in the stack. One matching call to `drawWindowEndPaint` is required for each call to `drawWindowBeginPaintRegion`.

drawWindowEndPaint :: DrawWindowClass self => self -> IO ()

Signal that drawing has finished.

Indicates that the backing store created by the most recent call to drawWindowBeginPaintRegion should be copied onscreen and deleted, leaving the next-most-recent backing store or no backing store at all as the active paint region. See drawWindowBeginPaintRegion for full details. It is an error to call this function without a matching drawWindowBeginPaintRegion first.

drawWindowInvalidateRect

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> Rectangle	`rect` - rectangle to invalidate
-> Bool	`invalidateChildren` - whether to also invalidate child drawWindows
-> IO ()
A convenience wrapper around `drawWindowInvalidateRegion` which invalidates a rectangular region. See `drawWindowInvalidateRegion` for details.

drawWindowInvalidateRegion

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> Region	`region` - a Region
-> Bool	`invalidateChildren` - `True` to also invalidate child drawWindows
-> IO ()
Adds `region` to the update area for `DrawWindow`. The update area is the region that needs to be redrawn, or "dirty region.". During the next idle period of the main look, an expose even for this region will be created. An application would normally redraw the contents of `DrawWindow` in response to those expose events. The `invalidateChildren` parameter controls whether the region of each child drawWindow that intersects `region` will also be invalidated. If `False`, then the update area for child drawWindows will remain unaffected.

drawWindowGetUpdateArea

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> IO (Maybe Region)	returns the update area for `DrawWindow`
Ask for the dirty region of this window. Transfers ownership of the update area from `DrawWindow` to the caller of the function. That is, after calling this function, `DrawWindow` will no longer have an invalid/dirty region; the update area is removed from `DrawWindow` and handed to you. If this window has no update area, `drawWindowGetUpdateArea` returns `Nothing`.

drawWindowFreezeUpdates :: DrawWindowClass self => self -> IO ()

Temporarily freezes a drawWindow such that it won't receive expose events. * The drawWindow will begin receiving expose events again when drawWindowThawUpdates is called. If drawWindowFreezeUpdates has been called more than once, drawWindowThawUpdates must be called an equal number of times to begin processing exposes.

drawWindowThawUpdates :: DrawWindowClass self => self -> IO ()

Thaws a drawWindow frozen with drawWindowFreezeUpdates.

drawWindowProcessUpdates

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> Bool	`updateChildren` - whether to also process updates for child drawWindows
-> IO ()
Sends one or more expose events to `DrawWindow`. The areas in each expose event will cover the entire update area for the window (see `drawWindowInvalidateRegion` for details). Normally Gtk calls `drawWindowProcessUpdates` on your behalf, so there's no need to call this function unless you want to force expose events to be delivered immediately and synchronously (vs. the usual case, where Gtk delivers them in an idle handler). Occasionally this is useful to produce nicer scrolling behavior, for example.

drawWindowSetAcceptFocus

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> Bool	`acceptFocus` - `True` if the drawWindow should receive input focus
-> IO ()
Setting `acceptFocus` to `False` hints the desktop environment that the window doesn't want to receive input focus. On X, it is the responsibility of the drawWindow manager to interpret this hint. ICCCM-compliant drawWindow manager usually respect it. Available since Gdk version 2.4

drawWindowShapeCombineMask

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> Maybe Pixmap	`mask` - region of drawWindow to be non-transparent
-> Int	`offsetX` - X position of `shapeRegion` in `DrawWindow` coordinates
-> Int	`offsetY` - Y position of `shapeRegion` in `DrawWindow` coordinates
-> IO ()
Applies a shape mask to window. Pixels in window corresponding to set bits in the mask will be visible; pixels in window corresponding to unset bits in the mask will be transparent. This gives a non-rectangular window. If `mask` is `Nothing`, the shape mask will be unset, and the x/y parameters are not used. The `mask` must be a bitmap, that is, a `Pixmap` of depth one. On the X11 platform, this uses an X server extension which is widely available on most common platforms, but not available on very old X servers, and occasionally the implementation will be buggy. On servers without the shape extension, this function will do nothing. On the Win32 platform the functionality is always present. This function works on both toplevel and child windows.

drawWindowShapeCombineRegion

:: DrawWindowClass self
=> self
-> Maybe Region	`shapeRegion` - region of drawWindow to be non-transparent
-> Int	`offsetX` - X position of `shapeRegion` in `DrawWindow` coordinates
-> Int	`offsetY` - Y position of `shapeRegion` in `DrawWindow` coordinates
-> IO ()
Makes pixels in `DrawWindow` outside `shapeRegion` transparent. Makes pixels in `DrawWindow` outside `shapeRegion` transparent, so that the window may be nonrectangular. If `shapeRegion` is `Nothing`, the shape will be unset, so the whole `DrawWindow` will be opaque again. The parameters `offsetX` and `offsetY` are ignored if `shapeRegion` is `Nothing`. On the X11 platform, this uses an X server extension which is widely available on most common platforms, but not available on very old X servers, and occasionally the implementation will be buggy. On servers without the shape extension, this function will do nothing. This function works on both toplevel and child drawWindows.

drawWindowSetChildShapes :: DrawWindowClass self => self -> IO ()

Sets the shape mask of DrawWindow to the union of shape masks for all children of DrawWindow, ignoring the shape mask of DrawWindow itself. Contrast with drawWindowMergeChildShapes which includes the shape mask of DrawWindow in the masks to be merged.

drawWindowMergeChildShapes :: DrawWindowClass self => self -> IO ()

Merges the shape masks for any child drawWindows into the shape mask for DrawWindow. i.e. the union of all masks for DrawWindow and its children will become the new mask for DrawWindow. See drawWindowShapeCombineMask.

This function is distinct from drawWindowSetChildShapes because it includes DrawWindow's shape mask in the set of shapes to be merged.

drawWindowGetPointer :: DrawWindowClass self => self -> IO (Maybe (Bool, Int, Int, [Modifier]))

drawWindowGetPointerPos :: DrawWindowClass self => self -> IO (Maybe DrawWindow, Int, Int, [Modifier])

Obtains the current pointer position and modifier state.

The position is given in coordinates relative to the given window.
The return value is (Just win, x, y, mod) where win is the window over which the mouse currently resides and mod denotes the keyboard modifiers currently being depressed.
The return value is Nothing for the window if the mouse cursor is not over a known window.

drawWindowGetOrigin

:: DrawWindow

-> IO (Int, Int)

(x, y)

Obtains the position of a window in screen coordinates.

You can use this to help convert a position between screen coordinates and local DrawWindow relative coordinates.

drawWindowForeignNew :: NativeWindowId -> IO (Maybe DrawWindow)

Get the handle to an exising window of the windowing system. The passed-in handle is a reference to a native window, that is, an Xlib XID for X windows and a HWND for Win32.
