I have seen that, but it only uses some premade graphic contexts like
widget->style->white_gc. With that you can't use whatever color you
like. Maybe I've made the wrong question. Mainly my headache comes
from one question:
¿How can I make a graphic context with a custom foreground and background color?
I've tried that:
typedef struct _colors {
GdkColor fg;
GdkColor bg;
} colors;
GdkGC *graphic_context;
/* Color is a variable of type colors defined above, it contains a gdkcolor */
GdkColor color_fg = color.fg;
GdkColor color_bg = color.bg;
graphic_context = gdk_gc_new(widget->window);
gdk_gc_set_background(graphic_context, &color_bg);
gdk_gc_set_foreground(graphic_context, &color_fg);
It doesn't work. I gen strange values on the GdkGc colors.
I've tried this too:
GdkGCValues val;
val.foreground = color.fg;
val.background = color.bg;
graphic_context =
gdk_gc_new_with_values(widget->window,&val2,GDK_GC_FOREGROUND|GDK_GC_BACKGROUND);
It doesn't work too. I get the same strange values.
Is there any example where I can see how to draw a custom polygon (for
example a blue rectangle or something like that)
