CacheableContainer
touchgfx/containers/CacheableContainer.hpp
A CacheableContainer can be seen as a regular Container, i.e. a Drawable that can have child nodes. The z-order of children is determined by the order in which Drawables are added to the container - the Drawable added last will be front-most on the screen.
The important difference is that a CacheableContainer can also render its content to a dynamic bitmap which can then be used as a texture in subsequent drawing operations, either as a simple Image or in a TextureMapper. If the bitmap format of the dynamic bitmap differs from the format of the current LCD, the LCD from drawing the bitmap must be setup using HAL::setAuxiliaryLCD().

Public Functions Documentation
CacheableContainer
enableCachedMode
void enableCachedMode | ( | bool | enable | ) | |
Toggle cached mode on and off.
The CacheableContainer behaves just like a regular Container when cached mode is turned off.
enable | Enable or disable cached mode. |
getAlpha
uint8_t getAlpha | ( | ) | const |

invalidateContent
virtual void invalidateContent | ( | ) | const |
Tell the framework that the contents of the Drawable needs to be redrawn.
If the Drawable is invisible, nothing happens. Subclasses of Drawable are encouraged to implement this function and invalidate as little as possible, i.e. the smallest rectangle covering the visual element(s) drawn by the widget.
Reimplements: touchgfx::Drawable::invalidateContent
invalidateRect
virtual void invalidateRect | ( | Rect & | invalidatedArea | ) | |
Request that a subregion of this drawable is redrawn.
Will recursively traverse the children. When this function returns, the specified invalidated area has been redrawn for all appropriate Drawables covering the region.
invalidatedArea | The area of this drawable to redraw expressed in coordinates relative to its parent (e.g. to request a complete redraw, invalidatedArea will be (0, 0, width, height). |
Reimplements: touchgfx::Drawable::invalidateRect

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).

Note
The user code must call invalidate() in order to update the display.The alpha is only applied when cached mode is enabled.
