PgSetStrokeTransPat(), PgSetStrokeTransPatCx()

Set the draw transparency for strokes

Synopsis:

void PgSetStrokeTransPat( PgPattern_t pat );

void PgSetStrokeTransPatCx( PhGC_t *gc,
                            PgPattern_t pat );

Library:

ph

Description:

These functions set a masking pattern and applies it to outlines. You should use it in combination with PgSetStrokeColor*() or PgSetStrokeDither*().

These functions use the same patterns as PgSetFillDither*(). To disable transparency and draw normally, specify the Pg_PAT_DEFAULT pattern.

Because of speed considerations, some graphics drivers don't draw strokes with a transparency mask and, as a result, ignore the stroke transparency pattern.

PgSetStrokeTransPat() works on the current graphics context, while you can specify the graphics context gc for PgSetStrokeTransPatCx().

Classification:

Photon
