Method Cairo.Context()->set_source()

Method set_source

void set_source(Pattern source)

Description

Sets the source pattern to source. This pattern will then be used for any subsequent drawing operation until a new source pattern is set.

Note

The pattern's transformation matrix will be locked to the user space in effect at the time of set_source(). This means that further modifications of the current transformation matrix will not affect the source pattern. See Pattern->set_matrix().

The default source pattern is a solid pattern that is opaque black, (that is, it is equivalent to set_source_rgb(0.0, 0.0, 0.0)).

Parameter source

a Pattern to be used as the source for subsequent drawing operations.
