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() (not implemented in wx).

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.

Remark: There is partial support for blit/6 in wxPostScriptDC, under X.

                                    Option :: {font, wxFont:wxFont()}.

Gets the dimensions of the string using the currently selected font.

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.

If string is empty, its horizontal extent is 0 but, for convenience when using this function for allocating enough space for a possibly multi-line string, its vertical extent is the same as the height of an empty line of text. Please note that this behaviour differs from that of getTextExtent/3.

Note: This function works with both single-line and multi-line strings.

See: wxFont, setFont/2, getPartialTextExtents/2, getTextExtent/3

                                   Text :: unicode:chardata().

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/3, 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.

See: getMultiLineTextExtent/3, getTextExtent/3

-spec getPen(This) -> wxPen:wxPen() when This :: wxDC().

See: setPen/2

-spec getPixel(This, Pos) -> Result

                      Pos :: {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}.

Gets in colour the colour at the specified location.

This method isn't available for wxPostScriptDC or wxMetafileDC (not implemented in wx) nor for any DC in wxOSX port and simply returns false there.

Note: Setting a pixel can be done using drawPoint/2.

Note: This method shouldn't be used with wxPaintDC as accessing the DC while drawing can result in unexpected results, notably in wxGTK.

                           Option :: {theFont, wxFont:wxFont()}.

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 {Width,Height} 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.

If string is empty, its extent is 0 in both directions, as expected.

Note: This function only works with single-line strings.

Fill the area specified by rect with a radial gradient, starting from initialColour at the centre of the circle and fading to destColour on the circle outside.

circleCenter are the relative coordinates of centre of the circle in the specified rect.

Note: Currently this function is very slow, don't use it for real-time drawing.

-spec gradientFillLinear(This, Rect, InitialColour, DestColour, [Option]) -> ok
                            when
                                This :: wxDC(),
                                Rect :: {X :: integer(), Y :: integer(), W :: integer(), H :: integer()},
                                InitialColour :: wx:wx_colour(),

The default orientation is x axis from left to right and y axis from top down.

-spec setBackground(This, Brush) -> ok when This :: wxDC(), Brush :: wxBrush:wxBrush().

Sets the current background brush for the DC.

-spec setBackgroundMode(This, Mode) -> ok when This :: wxDC(), Mode :: integer().

mode may be one of wxPENSTYLE_SOLID and wxPENSTYLE_TRANSPARENT.

This setting determines whether text will be drawn with a background colour or not.

-spec setBrush(This, Brush) -> ok when This :: wxDC(), Brush :: wxBrush:wxBrush().

Sets the current brush for the DC.

If the argument is ?wxNullBrush (or another invalid brush; see wxBrush:isOk/1), the current brush is selected out of the device context (leaving wxDC without any valid brush), allowing the current brush to be destroyed safely.

See: wxBrush, wxMemoryDC, (for the interpretation of colours when drawing into a monochrome bitmap)

-spec setClippingRegion(This, Rect) -> ok
                           when
                               This :: wxDC(),
                               Rect :: {X :: integer(), Y :: integer(), W :: integer(), H :: integer()}.

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

-spec setClippingRegion(This, Pt, Sz) -> ok
                           when
                               This :: wxDC(),
                               Pt :: {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()},
                               Sz :: {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}.

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

-spec setDeviceOrigin(This, X, Y) -> ok when This :: wxDC(), X :: integer(), Y :: integer().

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.

-spec setFont(This, Font) -> ok when This :: wxDC(), Font :: wxFont:wxFont().

Sets the current font for the DC.

If the argument is ?wxNullFont (or another invalid font; see wxFont:isOk/1), the current font is selected out of the device context (leaving wxDC without any valid font), allowing the current font to be destroyed safely.

See: wxFont

-spec setLayoutDirection(This, Dir) -> ok when This :: wxDC(), Dir :: wx:wx_enum().

Sets the current layout direction for the device context.

See: getLayoutDirection/1

-spec setLogicalFunction(This, Function) -> ok when This :: wxDC(), Function :: wx:wx_enum().

Sets the current logical function for the device context.

Note: This function is not fully supported in all ports, due to the limitations of the underlying drawing model. Notably, 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/6) 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.

-spec setMapMode(This, Mode) -> ok when This :: wxDC(), Mode :: wx:wx_enum().

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/3) 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.

-spec setPalette(This, Palette) -> ok when This :: wxDC(), Palette :: wxPalette:wxPalette().

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.

See: wxPalette

-spec setPen(This, Pen) -> ok when This :: wxDC(), Pen :: wxPen:wxPen().

Sets the current pen for the DC.

If the argument is ?wxNullPen (or another invalid pen; see wxPen:isOk/1), the current pen is selected out of the device context (leaving wxDC without any valid pen), allowing the current pen to be destroyed safely.

See: wxMemoryDC, for the interpretation of colours when drawing into a monochrome bitmap
