SkCanvas Reference


Canvas provides an interface for drawing, and how the drawing is clipped and transformed. Canvas contains a stack of Matrix and Clip values.

Canvas and Paint together provide the state to draw into Surface or Device. Each Canvas draw call transforms the geometry of the object by the concatenation of all Matrix values in the stack. The transformed geometry is clipped by the intersection of all of Clip values in the stack. The Canvas draw calls use Paint to supply drawing state such as Color, Typeface, text size, stroke width, Shader and so on.

To draw to a pixel-based destination, create Raster_Surface or GPU_Surface. Request Canvas from Surface to obtain the interface to draw. Canvas generated by Raster_Surface draws to memory visible to the CPU. Canvas generated by GPU_Surface uses Vulkan or OpenGL to draw to the GPU.

To draw to a document, obtain Canvas from SVG_Canvas, Document_PDF, or Picture_Recorder. Document based Canvas and other Canvas subclasses reference Device describing the destination.

Canvas can be constructed to draw to Bitmap without first creating Raster_Surface. This approach may be deprecated in the future.

Canvas may be created directly when no Surface is required; some Canvas methods implicitly create Raster_Surface.


Allocates raster SkCanvas that will draw directly into pixels.

SkCanvas is returned if all parameters are valid. Valid parameters include: info dimensions are zero or positive; info contains SkColorType and SkAlphaType supported by raster surface; pixels is not nullptr; rowBytes is zero or large enough to contain info width pixels of SkColorType.

Pass zero for rowBytes to compute rowBytes from info width and size of pixel. If rowBytes is greater than zero, it must be equal to or greater than info width times bytes required for SkColorType.

Pixel buffer size should be info height times computed rowBytes. Pixels are not initialized. To access pixels after drawing, call flush() or peekPixels().

Parameters

width, or height, or both, may be zero

Parameters

may be nullptr

Return Value

SkCanvas if all parameters are valid; otherwise, nullptr

Example

Example Output

Creates an empty SkCanvas with no backing device or pixels, with a width and height of zero.

Return Value

empty SkCanvas

Example

See Also

MakeRasterDirect SkRasterHandleAllocator::MakeCanvas SkSurface::getCanvas SkCreateColorSpaceXformCanvas


Creates SkCanvas of the specified dimensions without a SkSurface. Used by subclasses with custom implementations for draw member functions.

If props equals nullptr, SkSurfaceProps are created with SkSurfaceProps::InitType settings, which choose the pixel striping direction and order. Since a platform may dynamically change its direction when the device is rotated, and since a platform may have multiple monitors with different characteristics, it is best not to rely on this legacy behavior.

Parameters

may be nullptr

Return Value

SkCanvas placeholder with dimensions

Example

Example Output

canvas is empty

Canvas maintains a stack of state that allows hierarchical drawing, commonly used to implement windows and views. The initial state has an identity matrix and and an infinite clip. Even with a wide-open clip, drawing is constrained by the bounds of the Canvas Surface or Device.

Canvas savable state consists of Clip and Matrix. Clip describes the area that may be drawn to. Matrix transforms the geometry.

save(), saveLayer, saveLayerPreserveLCDTextRequests, and saveLayerAlpha save state and return the depth of the stack.

restore(), restoreToCount, and ~SkCanvas() revert state to its value when saved.

Each state on the stack intersects Clip with the previous Clip, and concatenates Matrix with the previous Matrix. The intersected Clip makes the drawing area the same or smaller; the concatenated Matrix may move the origin and potentially scale or rotate the coordinate space.

Canvas does not require balancing the state stack but it is a good idea to do so. Calling save() without restore() will eventually cause Skia to fail; mismatched save() and restore() create hard to find bugs.

It is not possible to use state to draw outside of the clip defined by the previous state.

Example

Each Clip uses the current Matrix for its coordinates.

Example

See Also

save saveLayer saveLayerPreserveLCDTextRequests saveLayerAlpha restore() restoreToCount


Saves SkMatrix and clip. Calling restore() discards changes to SkMatrix and clip, restoring the SkMatrix and clip to their state when save() was called.

SkMatrix may be changed by translate(), scale(), rotate(), skew(), concat(), setMatrix(), and resetMatrix(). Clip may be changed by clipRect(), clipRRect(), clipPath(), clipRegion().

Saved SkCanvas state is put on a stack; multiple calls to save() should be balance by an equal number of calls to restore().

Call restoreToCount() with result to restore this and subsequent saves.

Return Value

depth of saved stack

Example

See Also

saveLayer saveLayerPreserveLCDTextRequests saveLayerAlpha restore restoreToCount


Removes changes to SkMatrix and clip since SkCanvas state was last saved. The state is removed from the stack.

Does nothing if the stack is empty.

Example

See Also

save saveLayer saveLayerPreserveLCDTextRequests saveLayerAlpha restoreToCount


Returns the number of saved states, each containing: SkMatrix and clip. Equals the number of save() calls less the number of restore() calls plus one. The save count of a new canvas is one.

Return Value

depth of save state stack

Example

Example Output

depth = 1
depth = 2
depth = 1

See Also

save restore restoreToCount


Restores state to SkMatrix and clip values when save(), saveLayer(), saveLayerPreserveLCDTextRequests(), or saveLayerAlpha() returned saveCount.

Does nothing if saveCount is greater than state stack count. Restores state to initial values if saveCount is less than or equal to one.

Parameters

Example

Example Output

depth = 1
depth = 3
depth = 1

Layer allocates a temporary Bitmap to draw into. When the drawing is complete, the Bitmap is drawn into the Canvas.

Layer is saved in a stack along with other saved state. When state with a Layer is restored, the Bitmap is drawn into the previous Layer.

Layer may be initialized with the contents of the previous Layer. When Layer is restored, its Bitmap can be modified by Paint passed to Layer to apply Color_Alpha, Color_Filter, Image_Filter, and Blend_Mode.

Clip is built from a stack of clipping paths. Each Path in the stack can be constructed from one or more Path_Contour elements. The Path_Contour may be composed of any number of Path_Verb segments. Each Path_Contour forms a closed area; Path_Fill_Type defines the area enclosed by Path_Contour.

Clip stack of Path elements successfully restrict the Path area. Each Path is transformed by Matrix, then intersected with or subtracted from the prior Clip to form the replacement Clip. Use SkClipOp::kDifference to subtract Path from Clip; use SkClipOp::kIntersect to intersect Path with Clip.

A clipping Path may be Anti_Aliased; if Path, after transformation, is composed of horizontal and vertical lines, clearing Anti_Alias allows whole pixels to either be inside or outside the clip. The fastest drawing has a Aliased, rectangular clip.

If clipping Path has Anti_Alias set, clip may partially clip a pixel, requiring that drawing blend partially with the destination along the edge. A rotated rectangular Anti_Aliased clip looks smoother but draws slower.

Clip can combine with Rect and Round_Rect primitives; like Path, these are transformed by Matrix before they are combined with Clip.

Clip can combine with Region. Region is assumed to be in Device coordinates and is unaffected by Matrix.

Replaces clip with the intersection or difference of clip and rect, with an aliased or anti-aliased clip edge. rect is transformed by SkMatrix before it is combined with clip.

Parameters

Return Value

true if clip bounds is not empty

Example

Example Output

device bounds empty = false
device bounds empty = true

getLocalClipBounds getBaseLayerSize quickReject


Fills clip with color color. mode determines how ARGB is combined with destination.

Parameters

Example

See Also

clear SkBitmap::erase drawPaint


Fills clip with color color using SkBlendMode::kSrc. This has the effect of replacing all pixels contained by clip with color.

Parameters

Example

See Also

drawColor SkBitmap::erase drawPaint


Makes SkCanvas contents undefined. Subsequent calls that read SkCanvas pixels, such as drawing with SkBlendMode, return undefined results. discard() does not change clip or SkMatrix.

discard() may do nothing, depending on the implementation of SkSurface or SkBaseDevice that created SkCanvas.

discard() allows optimized performance on subsequent draws by removing cached data associated with SkSurface or SkBaseDevice. It is not necessary to call discard() once done with SkCanvas; any cached data is deleted when owning SkSurface or SkBaseDevice is deleted.

See Also

flush() GrContext::abandonContext


Fills clip with SkPaint paint. SkPaint components SkMaskFilter, SkShader, SkColorFilter, SkImageFilter, and SkBlendMode affect drawing; SkPathEffect in paint is ignored.

Parameters

Example

See Also

clear drawColor SkBitmap::erase


Selects if an array of points are drawn as discrete points, as lines, or as an open polygon.

Constants

Example

See Also

drawLine drawPoint drawPath


Draws pts using clip, SkMatrix and SkPaint paint. count is the number of points; if count is less than one, has no effect. mode may be one of: kPoints_PointMode, kLines_PointMode, or kPolygon_PointMode.

If mode is kPoints_PointMode, the shape of point drawn depends on paint SkPaint::Cap. If paint is set to SkPaint::kRound_Cap, each point draws a circle of diameter SkPaint stroke width. If paint is set to SkPaint::kSquare_Cap or SkPaint::kButt_Cap, each point draws a square of width and height SkPaint stroke width.

If mode is kLines_PointMode, each pair of points draws a line segment. One line is drawn for every two points; each point is used once. If count is odd, the final point is ignored.

If mode is kPolygon_PointMode, each adjacent pair of points draws a line segment. count minus one lines are drawn; the first and last point are used once.

Each line segment respects paint SkPaint::Cap and SkPaint stroke width. SkPaint::Style is ignored, as if were set to SkPaint::kStroke_Style.

Always draws each element one at a time; is not affected by SkPaint::Join, and unlike drawPath(), does not create a mask from all points and lines before drawing.

Parameters

Example

The transparent color makes multiple line draws visible; the path is drawn all at once.

See Also

drawLine drawPoint drawPath


Draws point at (x, y) using clip, SkMatrix and SkPaint paint.

The shape of point drawn depends on paint SkPaint::Cap. If paint is set to SkPaint::kRound_Cap, draw a circle of diameter SkPaint stroke width.

SrcRectConstraint controls the behavior at the edge of source Rect, provided to drawImageRect, trading off speed for precision.

Image_Filter in Paint may sample multiple pixels in the image. Source Rect restricts the bounds of pixels that may be read. Image_Filter may slow down if it cannot read outside the bounds, when sampling near the edge of source Rect. SrcRectConstraint specifies whether an Image_Filter is allowed to read pixels outside source Rect.

Lattice divides Bitmap or Image into a rectangular grid. Grid entries on even columns and even rows are fixed; these entries are always drawn at their original size if the destination is large enough. If the destination side is too small to hold the fixed entries, all fixed entries are proportionately scaled down to fit. The grid entries not on even columns and rows are scaled to fit the remaining space, if any.


Optional setting per rectangular grid entry to make it transparent, or to fill the grid entry with a color.

Constants

Each RectType is one of: kDefault, kTransparent, kFixedColor.

Array entries correspond to the rectangular grid entries, ascending left to right and then top to bottom.

Array entries correspond to the rectangular grid entries, ascending left to right, then top to bottom.


Draws Bitmap bitmap stretched proportionally to fit into Rect dst.

Lattice lattice divides bitmap into a rectangular grid.

Draws SkVertices vertices, a triangle mesh, using clip and SkMatrix. If vertices texs and vertices colors are defined in vertices, and SkPaint paint contains SkShader, SkBlendMode mode combines vertices colors with SkShader.

Parameters

Example

drawPatch drawPicture


Draws SkVertices vertices, a triangle mesh, using clip and SkMatrix. If vertices texs and vertices colors are defined in vertices, and SkPaint paint contains SkShader, SkBlendMode mode combines vertices colors with SkShader.

Parameters

Example

See Also

drawPatch drawPicture


Draws SkVertices vertices, a triangle mesh, using clip and SkMatrix. Bone data is used to deform vertices with bone weights. If vertices texs and vertices colors are defined in vertices, and SkPaint paint contains SkShader, SkBlendMode mode combines vertices colors with SkShader. The first element of bones should be an object to world space transformation matrix that will be applied before performing mesh deformations. If no such transformation is needed, it should be the identity matrix. boneCount must be at most 80, and thus the size of bones should be at most 80.

drawPatch drawPicture


Draws a Coons patch: the interpolation of four cubics with shared corners, associating a color, and optionally a texture SkPoint, with each corner.

Coons patch uses clip and SkMatrix, paint SkShader, SkColorFilter, alpha, SkImageFilter, and SkBlendMode. If SkShader is provided it is treated as Coons patch texture; SkBlendMode mode combines color colors and SkShader if both are provided.

SkPoint array cubics specifies four SkPath cubic starting at the top-left corner, in clockwise order, sharing every fourth point. The last SkPath cubic ends at the first point.

Color array color associates colors with corners in top-left, top-right, bottom-right, bottom-left order.

If paint contains SkShader, SkPoint array texCoords maps SkShader as texture to corners in top-left, top-right, bottom-right, bottom-left order.

Parameters

may be nullptr

Draws a set of sprites from atlas, using clip, SkMatrix, and optional SkPaint paint. paint uses anti-alias, alpha, SkColorFilter, SkImageFilter, and SkBlendMode to draw, if present. For each entry in the array, SkRect tex locates sprite in atlas, and SkRSXform xform transforms it into destination space.

xform, text, and colors if present, must contain count entries. Optional colors are applied for each sprite using SkBlendMode mode, treating sprite as source and colors as destination. Optional cullRect is a conservative bounds of all transformed sprites. If cullRect is outside of clip, canvas can skip drawing.

Parameters

drawBitmap drawImage


Draws SkDrawable drawable using clip and SkMatrix, concatenated with optional matrix.

If SkCanvas has an asynchronous implementation, as is the case when it is recording into SkPicture, then drawable will be referenced, so that SkDrawable::draw() can be called when the operation is finalized. To force immediate drawing, call SkDrawable::draw() instead.

Parameters

Example

See Also

SkDrawable drawPicture


Draws SkDrawable drawable using clip and SkMatrix, offset by (x, y).

If SkCanvas has an asynchronous implementation, as is the case when it is recording into SkPicture, then drawable will be referenced, so that SkDrawable::draw() can be called when the operation is finalized. To force immediate drawing, call SkDrawable::draw() instead.

Parameters

Example

SkDrawable drawPicture


Associates SkRect on SkCanvas with an annotation; a key-value pair, where the key is a null-terminated UTF-8 string, and optional value is stored as SkData.

Only some canvas implementations, such as recording to SkPicture, or drawing to document PDF, use annotations.

Parameters

Example

Returns true if clip is empty; that is, nothing will draw.

May do work when called; it should not be called more often than needed. However, once called, subsequent calls perform no work until clip changes.

Return Value

true if clip is empty

Example

Example Output

clip is not empty
clip is empty

isClipRect getLocalClipBounds getDeviceClipBounds


Returns true if clip is SkRect and not empty. Returns false if the clip is empty, or if it is not SkRect.

Return Value

true if clip is SkRect and not empty

Example

Example Output

clip is rect
clip is not rect
