I wish to draw a line using mouseevents on Gtk::DrawableArea. What I want is something like:
#1: Click on Line Button to activate line event #2: Select first point(already drawn) in the drawingarea #3: Now Select second point(again already drawn) in the drawingarea #4: line should be drawn between two points What I already have: #1: Gtk::DrawingArea #2: 2 points(manual circles) drawn using cairo, needed to create the line The follwing is my constructor that calls the on_draw function. drawingArea:: drawingArea() { signal_draw().connect(sigc::mem_fun(*this, &drawingArea::on_draw), false); } And the on_draw function draws the background: bool drawingArea::on_draw(const Cairo::RefPtr<Cairo::Context>& cr) { cr->set_source_rgb(1.0, 1.0, 1.0); // white background cr->paint(); cr->save(); cr->arc(10.0, 10.0, 1.0, 0.0, 2 * M_PI); // full circle cr->set_source_rgba(0.0, 0.0, 0.8, 0.6); // partially translucent cr->fill_preserve(); cr->restore(); cr->stroke(); return true; } Any guidance how to achieve that? -- Gurjot Singh Blog: http://bhattigurjot.wordpress.com "It takes a person who is wide awake to make his dream come true." ~ Roger Babson _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
