NAME

Image::Base::Wx::DC -- draw into a Wx::DC

SYNOPSIS

use Image::Base::Wx::DC;
my $image = Image::Base::Wx::DC->new
                (-dc => $dc);
$image->line (0,0, 99,99, '#FF00FF');
$image->rectangle (10,10, 20,15, 'white');

CLASS HIERARCHY

Image::Base::Wx::DC is a subclass of Image::Base,

Image::Base
  Image::Base::Wx::DC

DESCRIPTION

Image::Base::Wx::DC extends Image::Base to draw into a Wx::DC.

Native Wx::DC does much more than Image::Base but if you have some generic pixel twiddling code for Image::Base then this class can point it at Wx for a window or printer paint, etc.

See Image::Base::Wx::Bitmap for a subclass drawing into Wx::Bitmap with file loading and saving too.

Colour Names

Colour names are anything recognised by Wx::Colour->new(), which as per its Set() method means

"pink"            names per wxColourDatabase
"#RGB"            1 to 4 digit hex
"#RRGGBB"
"#RRRGGGBBB"
"#RRRRGGGGBBB"
"RGB(r,g,b)"      decimal 0 to 255

The colour is applied to the "pen" in the -dc, and for filling to the "brush" too. The pen is also set to wxCAP_PROJECTING to ensure the last pixel is drawn for line(). That might be an artifact of the X11 "on the boundary above or left" rule, but in any case gets the right effect.

If the colour etc in the -dc is changed elsewhere then what Image::Base::Wx::DC thinks it has set will be invalid. Set -dc into the $image again to reset.

FUNCTIONS

See "FUNCTIONS" in Image::Base for the behaviour common to all Image-Base classes.

$image = Image::Base::Wx::DC->new (key=>value,...)

Create and return a new image object. A -dc parameter must be given,

$image = Image::Base::Wx::DC->new
             (-dc => $dc);

Further parameters are applied per set (see "ATTRIBUTES" below).

$image->xy ($x, $y, $colour)

Get or set the pixel at $x,$y.

Getting a pixel is per Wx::DC GetPixel(). In the current code colours are returned in "#RRGGBB" form (wxC2S_HTML_SYNTAX of Wx::Colour).

ATTRIBUTES

-dc (Wx::DC object)

The target dc.

-width, -height (read-only)

The size of the DC's target, as per $dc->GetSize().
