Re: GTK and lots of drawings

["Vest ." <vest 84 gmail com>]

Hello Creak,

Actually, the clutter is not a toolkit for drawing only. It allows you to create 2d/3d user interfaces using images that you provide.

Yes, you can display actors that have the image drawn at runtime, e.g. extract the Cairo context or use cogl. Some of good examples are available here: http://github.com/clutter-project/toys

My suggestion to you is to choose, e.g. Cairo toolkit and create an image in memory, and then when the image is ready, simply copy it to the window (https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/3.0/gtk-getting-started.html search for Cairo).

What do you think?

Kind regards,
Vest

Hi!

I'm creating a graphical interface in GTK for a code profiler. I'd
need to draw lots and lots of small rectangles, lines and texts in a
canvas. I tried GooCanvas, but it's not actively developed anymore so
I'd rather not start on a deprecated techno.

Is Clutter a good idea for that?

Thanks,
Creak
