107 @class wxDC
108
109 A wxDC is a @e "device context" onto which graphics and text can be drawn.
110 It is intended to represent different output devices and offers a common
111 abstract API for drawing on any of them.
112
113 wxWidgets offers an alternative drawing API based on the modern drawing
114 backends GDI+, CoreGraphics and Cairo. See wxGraphicsContext, wxGraphicsRenderer
115 and related classes. There is also a wxGCDC linking the APIs by offering
116 the wxDC API on top of a wxGraphicsContext.
117
118 wxDC is an abstract base class and cannot be created directly.
119 Use wxPaintDC, wxClientDC, wxWindowDC, wxScreenDC, wxMemoryDC or
120 wxPrinterDC. Notice that device contexts which are associated with windows
121 (i.e. wxClientDC, wxWindowDC and wxPaintDC) use the window font and colours
122 by default (starting with wxWidgets 2.9.0) but the other device context
123 classes use system-default values so you always must set the appropriate
124 fonts and colours before using them.
125
126 In addition to the versions of the methods documented below, there
127 are also versions which accept single wxPoint parameter instead
128 of the two wxCoord ones or wxPoint and wxSize instead of the four
129 wxCoord parameters.
130
131 Beginning with wxWidgets 2.9.0 the entire wxDC code has been
132 reorganized. All platform dependent code (actually all drawing code)
133 has been moved into backend classes which derive from a common
134 wxDCImpl class. The user-visible classes such as wxClientDC and
135 wxPaintDC merely forward all calls to the backend implementation.
136
137
138 @section dc_units Device and logical units
139
140 In the wxDC context there is a distinction between @e logical units and @e device units.
141
142 @b Device units are the units native to the particular device; e.g. for a screen,
143 a device unit is a @e pixel. For a printer, the device unit is defined by the
144 resolution of the printer (usually given in @c DPI: dot-per-inch).
145
146 All wxDC functions use instead @b logical units, unless where explicitly
147 stated. Logical units are arbitrary units mapped to device units using
148 the current mapping mode (see wxDC::SetMapMode).
149
150 This mechanism allows to reuse the same code which prints on e.g. a window
151 on the screen to print on e.g. a paper.
152
153
154 @section dc_alpha_support Support for Transparency / Alpha Channel
155
156 In general wxDC methods don't support alpha transparency and the alpha
157 component of wxColour is simply ignored and you need to use wxGraphicsContext
158 for full transparency support. There are, however, a few exceptions: first,
159 under Mac OS X colours with alpha channel are supported in all the normal
160 wxDC-derived classes as they use wxGraphicsContext internally. Second,
161 under all platforms wxSVGFileDC also fully supports alpha channel. In both
162 of these cases the instances of wxPen or wxBrush that are built from
163 wxColour use the colour's alpha values when stroking or filling.
164
165
166 @section Support for Transformation Matrix
167
168 On some platforms (currently only under MSW and only on Windows NT, i.e.
169 not Windows 9x/ME, systems) wxDC has support for applying an arbitrary
170 affine transformation matrix to its coordinate system. Call
171 CanUseTransformMatrix() to check if this support is available and then call
172 SetTransformMatrix() if it is. If the transformation matrix is not
173 supported, SetTransformMatrix() always simply returns false and doesn't do
174 anything.

1590 wxDCClipper is a helper class for setting a clipping region on a wxDC

1597 @code
1598 void MyFunction(wxDC& dc)
