Gtk+Cairo+transparency

[Oscar Salvador <pyscholeber@xxxxxxxxx>]

 Hi, how are you.

I don't know if this is best site to ask this question. If not, i appreciate you that 

indicate me the better site for this.

Well, i explain my problem.

I'm developing an aplicattion with gtk. 

I'm using Cairo library for make transparent the mainwindow of the aplication, but this 

window has also a "gtk theme" made for me(image background etc). 

If I only put gtk theme in the window i have no problem, all run correctly, but 

when I paint this window with cairo, my gtk theme dissapears.

The code that does this is:

==========================================

gboolean supports_alpha = FALSE;

static gboolean expose(GtkWidget *widget, GdkEventExpose *event, gpointer userdata)

{

    cairo_t *cr = gdk_cairo_create(widget->window);

    if (supports_alpha)

        cairo_set_source_rgba (cr, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1); /* transparent */

    else

        cairo_set_source_rgb (cr, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0); /* opaque white */

    /* draw the background */

    cairo_set_operator (cr, CAIRO_OPERATOR_SOURCE);

    

    cairo_paint (cr);

    cairo_destroy(cr);

    return FALSE;

}

static void screen_changed(GtkWidget *widget, GdkScreen *old_screen, gpointer userdata)

{

    /* To check if the display supports alpha channels, get the colormap */

    GdkScreen *screen = gtk_widget_get_screen(widget);

    GdkColormap *colormap = gdk_screen_get_rgba_colormap(screen);

    if (!colormap)

    {

        printf("Your screen does not support alpha channels!\n");

        colormap = gdk_screen_get_rgb_colormap(screen);

        supports_alpha = FALSE;

    }

    else

    {

        printf("Your screen supports alpha channels!\n");

        supports_alpha = TRUE;

    }

    /* Now we have a colormap appropriate for the screen, use it */

    gtk_widget_set_colormap(widget, colormap);

}

static GtkWidget *set_window_attr(GtkWindow *window)

{

char rc_style[512];

  

gtk_window_set_position(window, GTK_WIN_POS_MOUSE);

gtk_window_set_default_size(window, 300, 200);

gtk_window_set_decorated(window, FALSE);

sprintf(rc_style, "pixmap_path \"/\" \n" "style \"mywindow\" \n" "{\n"

"bg_pixmap[NORMAL]=\"%s\"\n"

"}"

 "class \"GtkWindow\" style \"mywindow\"\n", "player.png");

gtk_rc_parse_string(rc_style);

gtk_widget_set_app_paintable(GTK_WIDGET(window), TRUE);

g_signal_connect(window, "delete-event", G_CALLBACK(delete_event), NULL);

g_signal_connect(window, "expose-event", G_CALLBACK(expose), NULL);

     g_signal_connect(window, "screen-changed", G_CALLBACK(screen_changed), NULL);

    return GTK_WIDGET(window);

}

void player_intf(int c_argc, char **c_argv)

{

    GtkWidget *window;

    int i_args = c_argc;

    char **pp_args  = c_argv;

        gtk_init (&i_args, &pp_args);

        window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);

        window = set_window_attr(GTK_WINDOW(window));

        screen_changed(window, NULL, NULL);

        gtk_widget_show_all(window);

        gtk_main();

}

int main(int argc, char **argv)

{

    player_intf(argc, argv);

    return 0;

}

================================================

The part of code that done a transparent window is not mine, i searched how do a transparent windows with gtk in google, and i found this.

Thanks a lot,
