## Detailed Description

A Gdk::Visual describes a particular video hardware display format.

It includes information about the number of bits used for each color, the way the bits are translated into an RGB value for display, and the way the bits are stored in memory. For example, a piece of display hardware might support 24-bit color, 16-bit color, or 8-bit color; meaning 24/16/8-bit pixel sizes. For a given pixel size, pixels can be in different formats; for example the "red" element of an RGB pixel may be in the top 8 bits of the pixel, or may be in the lower 4 bits.

There are several standard visuals. The visual returned by Gdk::Screen::get_system_visual() is the system's default visual.

A number of methods are provided for determining the "best" available visual. For the purposes of making this determination, higher bit depths are considered better, and for visuals of the same bit depth, GDK_VISUAL_PSEUDO_COLOR is preferred at 8bpp, otherwise, the visual types are ranked in the order of (highest to lowest) GDK_VISUAL_DIRECT_COLOR, GDK_VISUAL_TRUE_COLOR, GDK_VISUAL_PSEUDO_COLOR, GDK_VISUAL_STATIC_COLOR, GDK_VISUAL_GRAYSCALE, then GDK_VISUAL_STATIC_GRAY.

## Member Function Documentation

void Gdk::Visual::get_blue_pixel_details | ( | guint32 & | mask,
|  | int & | shift,
|  | int & | precision
| ) |  | const

Obtains values that are needed to calculate blue pixel values in TrueColor and DirectColor.

The “mask” is the significant bits within the pixel. The “shift” is the number of bits left we must shift a primary for it to be in position (according to the "mask"). Finally, "precision" refers to how much precision the pixel value contains for a particular primary.

Since gtkmm 2.22:

Parameters

  mask | A pointer to a #guint32 to be filled in, or `nullptr`.
  shift | A pointer to a `int` to be filled in, or `nullptr`.
  precision | A pointer to a `int` to be filled in, or `nullptr`.

int Gdk::Visual::get_depth | ( |  | ) | const

Returns the bit depth of this visual.

Since gtkmm 2.22:

Returns
  The bit depth of this visual.

void Gdk::Visual::get_green_pixel_details | ( | guint32 & | mask,
|  | int & | shift,
|  | int & | precision
| ) |  | const

Obtains values that are needed to calculate green pixel values in TrueColor and DirectColor.

The “mask” is the significant bits within the pixel. The “shift” is the number of bits left we must shift a primary for it to be in position (according to the "mask"). Finally, "precision" refers to how much precision the pixel value contains for a particular primary.

Since gtkmm 2.22:

Parameters

  mask | A pointer to a #guint32 to be filled in, or `nullptr`.
  shift | A pointer to a `int` to be filled in, or `nullptr`.
  precision | A pointer to a `int` to be filled in, or `nullptr`.

void Gdk::Visual::get_red_pixel_details | ( | guint32 & | mask,
|  | int & | shift,
|  | int & | precision
| ) |  | const

Obtains values that are needed to calculate red pixel values in TrueColor and DirectColor.

The “mask” is the significant bits within the pixel. The “shift” is the number of bits left we must shift a primary for it to be in position (according to the "mask"). Finally, "precision" refers to how much precision the pixel value contains for a particular primary.

  mask | A pointer to a #guint32 to be filled in, or `nullptr`.
  shift | A pointer to a `int` to be filled in, or `nullptr`.
  precision | A pointer to a `int` to be filled in, or `nullptr`.

Glib::RefPtr<Screen> Gdk::Visual::get_screen | ( |  | ) |

Gets the screen to which this visual belongs.

Since gtkmm 2.2:

Returns
  The screen to which this visual belongs.

Glib::RefPtr<const Screen> Gdk::Visual::get_screen | ( |  | ) | const

Gets the screen to which this visual belongs.

Since gtkmm 2.2:

Returns
  The screen to which this visual belongs.

static GType Gdk::Visual::get_type | ( |  | ) |
| static

Get the GType for this class, for use with the underlying GObject type system.

VisualType Gdk::Visual::get_visual_type | ( |  | ) | const

Returns the type of visual this is (PseudoColor, TrueColor, etc).

Since gtkmm 2.22:

Returns
  A Gdk::VisualType stating the type of visual.

GdkVisual* Gdk::Visual::gobj | ( |  | ) |
| inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

const GdkVisual* Gdk::Visual::gobj | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

GdkVisual* Gdk::Visual::gobj_copy | ( |  | ) |

Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for unrefing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs.

## Friends And Related Function Documentation

Glib::RefPtr< Gdk::Visual > wrap | ( | GdkVisual * | object,
|  | bool | take_copy = `false`
| ) |  |
| related

A Glib::wrap() method for this object.

Parameters

  object | The C instance.
  take_copy | False if the result should take ownership of the C instance. True if it should take a new copy or ref.

Returns
  A C++ instance that wraps this C instance.
