Display Clipping

The display driver uses software and hardware clipping.

In the graphics drivers software clipping is referred to as clipping and hardware clipping as limits.

Software clipping is used to ensure that nothing outside the set region is draw to the screen by any of the drawing functions. Eliminating unwanted drawing to the display will give a higher performance on displays which has a low bandwidth from the CPU. Software is enabled by the CONF_GFX_USE_CLIPPING configuration symbol. Clipping region is set with the gfx_set_clipping() function.

Hardware clipping is used in the supported display drivers to efficiently draw primitives on a subset of the display. Example: when drawing a filled rectangle the limits is set to the size of the rectangle, and the driver sends the correct number of pixels to fill the entire rectangle. Without hardware clipping/limits the driver will have to to move the graphics ram (GRAM) position/pointer manually. Hardware clipping/limits is not used like software clipping to eliminate drawing outside a given region. Hardware clipping is set with the gfx_set_top_left_limit, gfx_set_bottom_right_limit and gfx_set_limits functions. In display drivers that do not use hardware clipping these functions will not have any effect.

void gfx_draw_bitmap ( const struct gfx_bitmap bmp,
gfx_coord_t  x,
gfx_coord_t  y 
)

Draw a bitmap.

Draw a bitmap to the screen on the given display coordinates

Parameters
bmpPointer to bitmap gfx_bitmap
xDisplay X coordinate
yDisplay Y coordinate

Referenced by main().

void gfx_draw_bitmap_tiled ( const struct gfx_bitmap bmp,
gfx_coord_t  x1,
gfx_coord_t  y1,
gfx_coord_t  x2,
gfx_coord_t  y2,
gfx_coord_t  tile_origin_x,
gfx_coord_t  tile_origin_y 
)

Draw a bitmap to the screen tiled to cover the output area.

The function starts at the tile origin and searches to find the coordinate closest to the top left of the output area that is a multiple of the bitmap width/height. It then draws the bitmap as many times as needed to cover the entire output area.

To draw a bitmap tiled on the entire screen, regardless of the bitmap size, the function can be used like this:

The function is used by the "window system" to redraw the background of a parent window when a transparent child window needs to be redrawn. In this case the full parent window does not need redrawing, only the area of the parent window that is under the child window. The tiles of the background image will for all windows start at the top left corner of the window, so the function is used like this:

gfx_draw_bitmap_tiled(parent_background_bmp,
child_window_x1, child_window_y1,
child_window_x2, child_window_y2,
parent_window_origin_x, parent_window_origin_y);
Note
If CONF_GFX_USE_CLIPPING is used, the output is clipped to the output area and nothing will be drawn outside the output area.
Parameters
bmpPointer to bitmap
x1Output area left coordinate
y1Output area top coordinate
x2Output area right coordinate
y2Output area bottom coordinate
tile_origin_xTile origin left coordinate
tile_origin_yTile origin top coordinate
void gfx_draw_line_pixel ( gfx_coord_t  x,
gfx_coord_t  y,

This function draws a single pixel on screen only setting top limit which makes it more suitable for line drawing. If outside the clipping region, nothing is drawn.

Parameters
xX coordinate of the pixel to be drawn.
yY coordinate of the pixel to be drawn.
colorColor value of the pixel in display native format.

gfx_coord_t  x,
gfx_coord_t  y,
gfx_coord_t  width,
gfx_coord_t  height 
)

Write a rectangular block of pixels from a bitmap to the screen.

This function draws a subset of a bitmap to the screen. The subset is given by (map_x, map_y, width, height), and is outputted to the screen at the screen coordinates (x, y).

If the area to write is outside the clipping region, those pixels will not be written.

Note
This function fails if the width or height is negative or the pixel rectangle is outside the pixmap buffer extents. Clipping is only performed on the screen, not inside the pixmap buffer itself.
There is no checking if the pixel rectangle exceeds the bottom of the pixmap buffer.
Parameters
bmpPointer to bitmap.
map_xX coordinate inside pixel buffer.
map_yY coordinate inside pixel buffer.
xX coordinate on screen.
yY coordinate on screen.
widthWidth of pixel rectangle to copy.
heightHeight of pixel rectangle to copy.

void gfx_set_top_left_limit ( gfx_coord_t  x,

void gfx_sync ( void  )

Synchronize access to the display.

In case of a graphics driver implementation that queues graphics operations, this function will make sure all pending operations are completed before exiting. That way, if you want to read pixels from the display, you can be sure that the display information is fresh and updated. For implementations that does not queue operations, this function may do nothing, but for portability it should always be called before reading pixels, or performing other operations which rely on all pending drawing operations having actually been completed.
