Hi all, I'm trying to display a static image in a Gtk::Image widget. I have the image as a Cairo::ImageSurface, so I assumed I could call Gtk::Image::set(surface) however this does not work - the widget changes from the "missing image" icon to blank (all white.)
If instead I call Gdk::Pixbuf::create(surface, 0, 0, width, height) and pass the resulting Pixbuf to Gtk::Image::set() then it works. I am wondering why the set() call works when I pass a Gdk::Pixbuf, but not when I pass a Cairo::Surface? Passing the Cairo::Surface is easier for me (don't have to have code to retrieve image dimensions) so I'd rather do that if I can. auto cimg = Cairo::ImageSurface::create(...); ... Glib::RefPtr<Gtk::Image> ctImage = ... // This works //ctImage->set(Gdk::Pixbuf::create(cimg, 0, 0, width, height)); // This doesn't work - why? ctImage->set(cimg); Many thanks, Adam. _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
