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.
wxWidgets offers an alternative drawing API based on the modern drawing backends GDI+, CoreGraphics and Cairo. 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.
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 to reuse 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 Mac OS X 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 only under MSW and only on Windows NT, i.e. not Windows 9x/ME, systems) wxDC has support for applying an arbitrary affine transformation matrix to its coordinate system. 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.
Precise definition of default/initial state.
Pixelwise definition of operations (e.g. last point of a line not drawn).

) |
Draws a filled polygon using an array of points of size n, adding the optional offset coordinate.
The first and last points are automatically closed.
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.

||
) |
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.
Draws a rectangle with the given top left corner, and with the given size.
The current pen is used for the outline and the current brush for filling the shape.

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.
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

Returns the current device origin.
const wxFont& wxDC::GetFont | ( | ) | const |

Notice that even although each device context object has some default font after creation, this method would return a wxNullFont initially and only after calling SetFont() a valid font is returned.
wxFontMetrics wxDC::GetFontMetrics | ( | ) | const |
Returns the various font characteristics.
This method allows to retrieve some of the font characteristics not returned by GetTextExtent(), notably internal leading and average character width.
Currently this method returns correct results only under wxMSW, in the other ports the internal leading will always be 0 and the average character width will be computed as the width of the character 'x'.
wxLayoutDirection wxDC::GetLayoutDirection | ( | ) | const |
Gets the current layout direction of the device context.
On platforms where RTL layout is supported, the return value will either be wxLayout_LeftToRight

string is the text string to measure, heightLine, if non NULL, is where to store the height of a single line.
The text extent is set in the given w and h pointers.
If the optional parameter font is specified and valid, then it is used for the text extent calculation, otherwise the currently selected font is used.

bool wxDC::GetPartialTextExtents | ( | const wxString & | text, |
wxArrayInt & | widths | ||
) | const |
Fills the widths array with the widths from the beginning of text to the corresponding character of text.
The generic version simply builds a running total of the widths of each character using GetTextExtent(), however if the various platforms have a native API function that is faster or more accurate than the generic implementation then it should be used instead.
wxPerl Note: In wxPerl this method only takes the text parameter and returns the widths as a list of integers.
Gets in colour the colour at the specified location.

It can be used to scale graphics to fit the page.
For example, if maxX and maxY represent the maximum horizontal and vertical 'pixel' values used in your application, the following code will scale the graphic to fit on the printer page:
wxCoord w, h; dc.GetSize(&w, &h); double scaleX = (double)(maxX / w); double scaleY = (double)(maxY / h); dc.SetUserScale(min(scaleX, scaleY),min(scaleX, scaleY));
wxPerl Note: In wxPerl there are two methods instead of a single overloaded method:

wxCoord * | externalLeading = NULL , |
||
const wxFont * | font = NULL |
||
) | const |
Gets the dimensions of the string using the currently selected font.
string is the text string to measure, descent is the dimension from the baseline of the font to the bottom of the descender, and externalLeading is any extra vertical space added to the font by the font designer (usually is zero).
The text extent is returned in w and h pointers or as a wxSize object depending on which version of this function is used.
If the optional parameter font is specified and valid, then it is used for the text extent calculation. Otherwise the currently selected font is.
wxPerl Note: In wxPerl this method is implemented as GetTextExtent(string, font = undef) returning a 4-element list (width, height, descent, externalLeading)

Reimplemented in wxSVGFileDC.
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
Reimplemented in wxSVGFileDC.
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.
The clipping region is an area to which drawing is restricted. Possible uses for the clipping region are for clipping text or for speeding up window redraws when only a known area of the screen is damaged.
Notice that you need to call DestroyClippingRegion() if you want to set the clipping region exactly to the region specified.
Also note that if the clipping region is empty, any previously set clipping region is destroyed, i.e. it is equivalent to calling DestroyClippingRegion(), and not to clipping out all drawing on the DC as might be expected.
Reimplemented in wxSVGFileDC.
void wxDC::SetDeviceClippingRegion | ( | const wxRegion & | region | ) |
Sets the clipping region for this device context.
Unlike SetClippingRegion(), this function works with physical coordinates and not with the logical ones.
Sets the device origin (i.e., the origin in pixels after scaling has been applied).
This function may be useful in Windows printing operations for placing a graphic on a page.
void wxDC::SetFont | ( | const wxFont & | font | ) |
Sets the current font for the DC.
If the argument is wxNullFont (or another invalid font; see wxFont::IsOk), the current font is selected out of the device context (leaving wxDC without any valid font), allowing the current font to be destroyed safely.
void wxDC::SetLayoutDirection | ( | wxLayoutDirection | dir | ) |
Sets the current layout direction for the device context.
dir | May be either wxLayout_Default , wxLayout_LeftToRight or wxLayout_RightToLeft . |
void wxDC::SetLogicalFunction | ( | wxRasterOperationMode | function | ) |
Sets the current logical function for the device context.
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.
The default is wxCOPY
, which simply draws with the current colour. The others combine the current colour and the background using a logical operation. wxINVERT
is commonly used for drawing rubber bands or moving outlines, since drawing twice reverts to the original colour.
Reimplemented in wxSVGFileDC.
void wxDC::SetLogicalScale | ( | double | x, |
double | y | ||
) |
void wxDC::SetMapMode | ( | wxMappingMode | mode | ) |
The mapping mode of the device context defines the unit of measurement used to convert logical units to device units.
Note that in X, text drawing isn't handled consistently with the mapping mode; a font is always specified in point size. However, setting the user scale (see SetUserScale()) scales the text appropriately. In Windows, scalable TrueType fonts are always used; in X, results depend on availability of fonts, but usually a reasonable match is found.
The coordinate origin is always at the top left of the screen/printer.
Drawing to a Windows printer device context uses the current mapping mode, but mapping mode is currently ignored for PostScript output.
void wxDC::SetPalette | ( | const wxPalette & | palette | ) |
If this is a window DC or memory DC, assigns the given palette to the window or bitmap associated with the DC.
If the argument is wxNullPalette, the current palette is selected out of the device context, and the original palette restored.
Reimplemented in wxSVGFileDC.
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.
void wxDC::SetTextBackground | ( | const wxColour & | colour | ) |
Sets the current text background colour for the DC.
void wxDC::SetTextForeground | ( | const wxColour & | colour | ) |
Sets the current text foreground colour for the DC.
bool wxDC::SetTransformMatrix | ( | const wxAffineMatrix2D & | matrix | ) |
Set the transformation matrix.
If transformation matrix is supported on the current system, the specified matrix will be used to transform between wxDC and physical coordinates. Otherwise the function returns false and doesn't change the coordinate mapping.
void wxDC::SetUserScale | ( | double | xScale, |
double | yScale | ||
) |
Sets the user scaling factor, useful for applications which require 'zooming'.
bool wxDC::StartDoc | ( | const wxString & | message | ) |

Copy from a source DC to this DC possibly changing the scale.
Unlike Blit(), this method allows to specify 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.
xdest | Destination device context x position. |
ydest | Destination device context y position. |
dstWidth | Width of destination area. |
dstHeight | Height of destination area. |
source | Source device context. |
xsrc | Source device context x position. |
ysrc | Source device context y position. |
srcWidth | Width of source area to be copied. |
srcHeight | Height of source area to be copied. |
logicalFunc | Logical function to use, see SetLogicalFunction(). |
useMask | If true, Blit does a transparent blit using the mask that is associated with the bitmap selected into the source device context. The Windows implementation does the following if MaskBlt cannot be used:
Note: on Windows, blitting with masks can be speeded up considerably by compiling wxWidgets with the wxUSE_DC_CACHEING option enabled. You can also influence whether MaskBlt or the explicit mask blitting code above is used, by using wxSystemOptions and setting the no-maskblt option to 1. |
xsrcMask | Source x position on the mask. If both xsrcMask and ysrcMask are wxDefaultCoord, xsrc and ysrc will be assumed for the mask source position. Currently only implemented on Windows. |
ysrcMask | Source y position on the mask. If both xsrcMask and ysrcMask are wxDefaultCoord, xsrc and ysrc will be assumed for the mask source position. Currently only implemented on Windows. |
There is partial support for Blit() in wxPostScriptDC, under X.
See wxMemoryDC for typical usage.
