![]() |
It is used throughout GDK and GTK+ to specify which screen the top level windows are to be displayed on. It is also used to query the screen specification and default settings such as the default colormap (get_default_colormap()), the screen width (get_width()), etc. Note that a screen may consist of multiple monitors which are merged to form a large screen area.

void Gdk::Screen::broadcast_client_message | ( | GdkEvent * | event | ) |
On X11, sends an X ClientMessage event to all toplevel windows on screen .
Toplevel windows are determined by checking for the WM_STATE property, as described in the Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual (ICCCM). If no windows are found with the WM_STATE property set, the message is sent to all children of the root window.
On Windows, broadcasts a message registered with the name GDK_WIN32_CLIENT_MESSAGE to all top-level windows. The amount of data is limited to one long, i.e. four bytes.

Glib::RefPtr<const Colormap> Gdk::Screen::get_rgb_colormap | ( | ) | const |
Gets the preferred colormap for rendering image data on screen .
Not a very useful function; historically, GDK could only render RGB image data to one colormap and visual, but in the current version it can render to any colormap and visual. So there's no need to call this function.

Gets a "preferred visual" chosen by GdkRGB for rendering image data on screen .
In previous versions of GDK, this was the only visual GdkRGB could use for rendering. In current versions, it's simply the visual GdkRGB would have chosen as the optimal one in those previous versions. GdkRGB can now render to drawables with any visual.

Glib::RefPtr<const Colormap> Gdk::Screen::get_rgba_colormap | ( | ) | const |
Gets a colormap to use for creating windows or pixmaps with an alpha channel.
The windowing system on which GTK+ is running may not support this capability, in which case 0
will be returned. Even if a non-0
value is returned, its possible that the window's alpha channel won't be honored when displaying the window on the screen: in particular, for X an appropriate windowing manager and compositing manager must be running to provide appropriate display.
