Defines the x and y coordinates of a point.

GdkRegion

typedef struct _GdkRegion GdkRegion;

A GdkRegion represents a set of pixels on the screen.

In GTK3, GdkRegion will be replaced by cairo_region_t. All the functions listed in this section will go away and you will have to use the relevant Cairo functions. The conversion can be done using simple serch and replace.

enum GdkFillRule

The method for determining which pixels are included in a region, when creating a GdkRegion from a polygon. The fill rule is only relevant for polygons which overlap themselves.

enum GdkOverlapType

Specifies the possible values returned by gdk_region_rect_in().

struct GdkSpan

struct GdkSpan {
  gint x;
  gint y;
  gint width;
};

A GdkSpan represents a horizontal line of pixels starting at the pixel with coordinates x, y and ending before x + width, y.
