#include <wx/dc.h>
A wxDC is a "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.
wxDC also provides functions for coordinate transformation and computing text metrics and extends that are inherited from its base class wxReadOnlyDC.
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 for drawing on screen, wxMemoryDC for off-screen drawing or wxPrinterDC for printing (the remaining drawing contexts wxClientDC, wxWindowDC and wxScreenDC are deprecated and don't work on all platforms any longer). Notice that wxPaintDC uses 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 classes listed above, you can use wxInfoDC which can only provide information about the device context but not draw on it. This class is useful when you need a device context associated with a window outside of the paint event handler, i.e. when wxPaintDC can't be used.
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.
In wxWidgets 3.3.0 the new wxReadOnlyDC class was extracted from wxDC: it contains all the functions that don't actually draw on the device context, but just return information about it. This class should be rarely used directly, but some function that used to take wxDC argument but didn't need to modify it, now accept wxReadOnlyDC instead to make this fact explicit, and such functions can now also be called with wxInfoDC objects as arguments.
In the wxDC context there is a distinction between logical units and device units.
Device units are the units native to the particular device; e.g. for a screen, a device unit is a pixel. For a printer, the device unit is defined by the resolution of the printer (usually given in DPI:
dot-per-inch).
All wxDC functions use instead 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.
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 macOS 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.
On some platforms (currently under MSW, GTK+ 3, macOS) 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 false
and doesn't do anything.
This feature is only available when wxUSE_DC_TRANSFORM_MATRIX
build option is enabled.
Precise definition of default/initial state.
Pixelwise definition of operations (e.g. last point of a line not drawn).

Copy from a source DC to this DC.
With this method you can specify the destination coordinates and the size of area to copy which will be the same for both the source and target DCs. If you need to apply scaling while copying, use StretchBlit().
Notice that source DC coordinates xsrc and ysrc are interpreted using the current source DC coordinate system, i.e. the scale, origin position and axis directions are taken into account when transforming them to physical (pixel) coordinates.

void wxDC::Clear | ( | ) |
Clears the device context using the current background brush.
Note that SetBackground() method must be used to set the brush used by Clear(), the brush used for filling the shapes set by SetBrush() is ignored by it.
If no background brush was set, solid white brush is used to clear the device context.

Copy attributes from another DC.
The copied attributes currently are:
Note that the scaling factor is not considered to be an attribute of wxDC and is not copied by this function.

Draws an arc from the given start to the given end point.
The arc drawn is an arc of the circle centered at (xc, yc). Its start point is (xStart, yStart) whereas its end point is the point of intersection of the line passing by (xc, yc) and (xEnd, yEnd) with the circle passing by (xStart, yStart).
The arc is drawn in a counter-clockwise direction between the start and the end points.
The current pen is used for the outline and the current brush for filling the shape. Notice that unless the brush is transparent, the lines connecting the centre of the circle to the end points of the arc are drawn as well.
Draw a bitmap on the device context at the specified point.
If useMask is true and the bitmap has a transparency mask, the bitmap will be drawn transparently.

The current pen is used for drawing the line. Note that the point (x2, y2) is not part of the line and is not drawn by this function (this is consistent with the behaviour of many other toolkits).
This method uses a list of wxPoints, adding the optional offset coordinate.
The programmer is responsible for deleting the list of points.
wxPerl Note: The wxPerl version of this method accepts as its first parameter a reference to an array of wxPoint objects.
Draws lines using an array of points of size n adding the optional offset coordinate.
The current pen is used for drawing the lines.
wxPerl Note: Not supported by wxPerl.

wxPolygonFillMode | fill_style = wxODDEVEN_RULE |
||
) |
Draws two or more filled polygons using an array of points, adding the optional offset coordinates.
Notice that for the platforms providing a native implementation of this function (Windows and PostScript-based wxDC currently), this is more efficient than using DrawPolygon() in a loop.
n specifies the number of polygons to draw, the array count of size n specifies the number of points in each of the polygons in the points array.
The last argument specifies the fill rule: wxODDEVEN_RULE (the default) or wxWINDING_RULE.
The current pen is used for drawing the outline, and the current brush for filling the shape. Using a transparent brush suppresses filling.
The polygons maybe disjoint or overlapping. Each polygon specified in a call to DrawPolyPolygon() must be closed. Unlike polygons created by the DrawPolygon() member function, the polygons created by this method are not closed automatically.

void wxDC::DrawRectangle | ( | const wxRect & | rect | ) |
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
Draws a rectangle with the given corner coordinate and size.
Normally, x and y specify the top left corner coordinates and both width and height are positive, however they are also allowed to be negative, in which case the corresponding corner coordinate refers to the right or bottom corner instead.
The current pen is used for the outline and the current brush for filling the shape. Special case: If the current pen is transparent, then the current brush is used for the entire rectangle.
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

void wxDC::DrawRoundedRectangle | ( | wxCoord | x, |
wxCoord | y, | ||
wxCoord | width, | ||
wxCoord | height, | ||
double | radius | ||
) |
Draws a rectangle with the given top left corner, and with the given size.
The corners are quarter-circles using the given radius. The current pen is used for the outline and the current brush for filling the shape.
If radius is positive, the value is assumed to be the radius of the rounded corner. If radius is negative, the absolute value is assumed to be the proportion of the smallest dimension of the rectangle. This means that the corner can be a sensible size relative to the size of the rectangle, and also avoids the strange effects X produces when the corners are too big for the rectangle.
void wxDC::DrawSpline | ( | const wxPointList * | points | ) |

Draws a text string at the specified point, using the current text font, and the current text foreground and background colours.
The coordinates refer to the top-left corner of the rectangle bounding the string. See GetTextExtent() for how to get the dimensions of a text string, which can be used to position the text more precisely and DrawLabel() if you need to align the string differently.
Starting from wxWidgets 2.9.2 text parameter can be a multi-line string, i.e. contain new line characters, and will be rendered correctly.

void* wxDC::GetHandle | ( | ) | const |
Returns a value that can be used as a handle to the native drawing context, if this wxDC has something that could be thought of in that way.
(Not all of them do.)
For example, on Windows the return value is an HDC, on macOS it is a CGContextRef and on wxGTK it will be a GdkDrawable. If the DC is a wxGCDC then the return value will be the value returned from wxGraphicsContext::GetNativeContext. A value of nullptr is returned if the DC does not have anything that fits the handle concept.

void wxDC::SetBrush | ( | const wxBrush & | brush | ) |
Sets the current brush for the DC.
If the argument is wxNullBrush (or another invalid brush; see wxBrush::IsOk), the current brush is selected out of the device context (leaving wxDC without any valid brush), allowing the current brush to be destroyed safely.
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
void wxDC::SetClippingRegion | ( | const wxRect & | rect | ) |
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
Sets the clipping region for this device context to the intersection of the given region described by the parameters of this method and the previously set clipping region.

Reimplemented in wxGCDC.
void wxDC::SetLogicalFunction | ( | wxRasterOperationMode | function | ) |
Sets the current logical function for the device context.
wxINVERT
which was commonly used for drawing rubber bands or other moving outlines in the past, is not, and will not, be supported by wxGTK3 and wxMac. The suggested alternative is to draw temporarily objects normally and refresh the (affected part of the) window to remove them later.It determines how a source pixel (from a pen or brush colour, or source device context if using Blit()) combines with a destination pixel in the current device context. Text drawing is not affected by this function.
See wxRasterOperationMode enumeration values for more info.

If the argument is wxNullPalette, the current palette is selected out of the device context, and the original palette restored.
void wxDC::SetPen | ( | const wxPen & | pen | ) |
Sets the current pen for the DC.
If the argument is wxNullPen (or another invalid pen; see wxPen::IsOk), the current pen is selected out of the device context (leaving wxDC without any valid pen), allowing the current pen to be destroyed safely.

Copy from a source DC to this DC possibly changing the scale.
Unlike Blit(), this method allows specifying different source and destination region sizes, meaning that it can stretch or shrink it while copying. The same can be achieved by changing the scale of the source or target DC but calling this method is simpler and can also be more efficient if the platform provides a native implementation of it.
The meaning of its other parameters is the same as with Blit(), in particular all source coordinates are interpreted using the source DC coordinate system, i.e. are affected by its scale, origin translation and axis direction.
