"x-width". }; /** @class wxDC A wxDC is a @e "device context" onto which graphics and text can be drawn. It is intended to represent different output devices and offers a common abstract API for drawing on any of them. wxWidgets offers an alternative drawing API based on the modern drawing backends GDI+, CoreGraphics, Cairo and Direct2D. See wxGraphicsContext, wxGraphicsRenderer and related classes. There is also a wxGCDC linking the APIs by offering the wxDC API on top of a wxGraphicsContext. wxDC is an abstract base class and cannot be created directly. Use wxPaintDC, wxClientDC, wxWindowDC, wxScreenDC, wxMemoryDC or wxPrinterDC. Notice that device contexts which are associated with windows (i.e. wxClientDC, wxWindowDC and wxPaintDC) use the window font and colours by default (starting with wxWidgets 2.9.0) but the other device context classes use system-default values so you always must set the appropriate fonts and colours before using them. In addition to the versions of the methods documented below, there are also versions which accept single wxPoint parameter instead of the two wxCoord ones or wxPoint and wxSize instead of the four wxCoord parameters. Beginning with wxWidgets 2.9.0 the entire wxDC code has been reorganized. All platform dependent code (actually all drawing code) has been moved into backend classes which derive from a common wxDCImpl class. The user-visible classes such as wxClientDC and wxPaintDC merely forward all calls to the backend implementation. @section dc_units Device and logical units In the wxDC context there is a distinction between @e logical units and @e device units. @b Device units are the units native to the particular device; e.g. for a screen, a device unit is a @e pixel. For a printer, the device unit is defined by the resolution of the printer (usually given in @c DPI: dot-per-inch). All wxDC functions use instead @b logical units, unless where explicitly stated. Logical units are arbitrary units mapped to device units using the current mapping mode (see wxDC::SetMapMode). This mechanism allows reusing the same code which prints on e.g. a window on the screen to print on e.g. a paper. @section dc_alpha_support Support for Transparency / Alpha Channel In general wxDC methods don't support alpha transparency and the alpha component of wxColour is simply ignored and you need to use wxGraphicsContext for full transparency support. There are, however, a few exceptions: first, under OS X and GTK+ 3 colours with alpha channel are supported in all the normal wxDC-derived classes as they use wxGraphicsContext internally. Second, under all platforms wxSVGFileDC also fully supports alpha channel. In both of these cases the instances of wxPen or wxBrush that are built from wxColour use the colour's alpha values when stroking or filling. @section dc_transform_support Support for Transformation Matrix On some platforms (currently under MSW, GTK+ 3, OS X) wxDC has support for applying an arbitrary affine transformation matrix to its coordinate system (since 3.1.1 this feature is also supported by wxGCDC in all ports). Call CanUseTransformMatrix() to check if this support is available and then call SetTransformMatrix() if it is. If the transformation matrix is not supported, SetTransformMatrix() always simply returns @c false and doesn't do anything. This feature is only available when @c wxUSE_DC_TRANSFORM_MATRIX build option is enabled. @library{wxcore} @category{dc,gdi} @see @ref overview_dc, wxGraphicsContext, wxDCFontChanger, wxDCTextColourChanger, wxDCPenChanger, wxDCBrushChanger, wxDCClipper @todo Precise definition of default/initial state. @todo Pixelwise definition of operations (e.g. last point of a line not drawn). */ class wxDC : public wxObject { public: /** @name Coordinate conversion functions */ //@{ /** Convert @e device X coordinate to logical coordinate, using the current mapping mode, user scale factor, device origin and axis orientation. */ wxCoord DeviceToLogicalX(wxCoord x) const; /** Convert @e device X coordinate to relative logical coordinate, using the current mapping mode and user scale factor but ignoring the axis orientation.
