CanvasWidget
Class for drawing complex polygons on the display using CanvasWidgetRenderer. The CanvasWidget is used by passing it to a Canvas object, drawing the outline of the object and then having CanvasWidget render the outline on the display using the assigned painter.

CanvasWidget
draw
Draws the given invalidated area.
If the underlying CanvasWidgetRenderer fail to render the widget (if the widget is too complex), the invalidated area is cut into smaller slices (horizontally) which are then drawn separately. If drawing a single raster line fails, that line is considered too complex and skipped (it is left blank/transparent) and drawing continues on the next raster line.
If drawing has failed at least once, which means that the number of horizontal lines draw has been reduced, the number of successfully drawn horizontal lines is remembered for the next invocation of draw(). A future call to draw() would then start off with the reduced number of horizontal lines to prevent potentially drawing the canvas widget in vain, as happened previously in draw().
| invalidatedArea | The invalidated area. |
Note
Subclasses of CanvasWidget should implement drawCanvasWidget(), not draw(). The term "too complex" means that the size of the buffer (assigned to CanvasWidgetRenderer using CanvasWidgetRenderer::setupBuffer()) is too small.

drawCanvasWidget
| virtual bool drawCanvasWidget | ( | const Rect & | invalidatedArea | ) | |
Draw canvas widget for the given invalidated area.
Similar to draw(), but might be invoked several times with increasingly smaller areas to due to memory constraints from the underlying CanvasWidgetRenderer.
| invalidatedArea | The invalidated area. |
true if the widget was drawn properly, false if not.

getAlpha
| virtual uint8_t getAlpha | ( | ) | const |
Gets the current alpha value of the widget.
The alpha value is in range 255 (solid) to 0 (invisible).
The current alpha value.
getMinimalRect
| virtual Rect getMinimalRect | ( | ) | const |
Gets minimal rectangle containing the shape drawn by this widget.
Default implementation returns the size of the entire widget, but this function should be overwritten in subclasses and return the minimal rectangle containing the shape. See classes such as Circle for example implementations.
The minimal rectangle containing the shape drawn.
Reimplemented by: touchgfx::AbstractShape::getMinimalRect, touchgfx::Circle::getMinimalRect, touchgfx::Line::getMinimalRect
getPainter
| virtual AbstractPainter & getPainter | ( | ) | const |
getSolidRect
| virtual Rect getSolidRect | ( | ) | const |
Gets the largest solid (non-transparent) rectangle.
Since canvas widgets typically do not have a solid rect, it is recommended to return an empty rectangle.
The largest solid (non-transparent) rectangle.
Note
Function draw() might fail for some horizontal lines due to memory constraints. These lines will not be drawn and may cause strange display artifacts.
Reimplements: touchgfx::Drawable::getSolidRect
invalidate
| virtual void invalidate | ( | ) | const |
Invalidates the area covered by this CanvasWidget.
Since many widgets are a lot smaller than the actual size of the canvas widget, each widget must be able to tell the smallest rectangle completely containing the shape drawn by the widget. For example a circle arc is typically much smaller than the widget containing the circle.
Reimplements: touchgfx::Drawable::invalidate
resetMaxRenderLines
| void resetMaxRenderLines | ( | ) |
Resets the maximum render lines.
The maximum render lines is decreates if the rendering buffer is found to be too small to render a complex outline. This is done to speed up subsequent draws by not having to draw the outline in vain (as was done previously) to force the outline to be drawn in smaller blocks. The resetMaxRenderLines() will try to render the entire outline in one go on the next call to draw().
setAlpha
| virtual void setAlpha | ( | uint8_t | newAlpha | ) | |
Sets the opacity (alpha value).
This can be used to fade it away by gradually decreasing the alpha value from 255 (solid) to 0 (invisible).
| newAlpha | The new alpha value. 255=solid, 0=invisible. |
Note
The user code must call invalidate() in order to update the display.
setPainter
| virtual void setPainter | ( | AbstractPainter & | painter | ) | |
Sets a painter for the CanvasWidget.
| painter | The painter for the CanvasWidget. |
Note
If setPainter() is used to change the painter to a different painter, the area containing the CanvasWidget is not automatically invalidated.
Reimplemented by: touchgfx::AbstractGraphElementNoCWR::setPainter
