## Detailed Description

This is a top level 'window' on which child actors are placed and manipulated.

Clutter creates a default stage upon initialization, which can be retrieved using Stage::get_default(). Clutter always provides the default stage, unless the backend is unable to create one. The stage returned by Stage::get_default() is guaranteed to always be the same.

Backends might provide support for multiple stages. The support for this feature can be checked at run-time using the clutter_feature_available() function and the CLUTTER_FEATURE_STAGE_MULTIPLE flag. If the backend used supports multiple stages, new Clutter::Stage instances can be created.

Clutter::Stage is a proxy actor, wrapping the backend-specific implementation of the windowing system. It is possible to subclass ClutterStage, as long as every overridden virtual function calls the implementation in the base class.

This function essentially makes sure the right GL context is current for the passed stage.

It is not intended to be used by applications.

Since cluttermm 0.8:

void Clutter::Stage::ensure_redraw | ( |  | ) |

Ensures that stage is redrawn.

This function should not be called by applications: it is used when embedding a Clutter::Stage into a toolkit with another windowing system, like GTK+.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

void Clutter::Stage::ensure_viewport | ( |  | ) |

Ensures that the GL viewport is updated with the current stage window size.

This function will queue a redraw of stage.

This function should not be called by applications; it is used when embedding a Clutter::Stage into a toolkit with another windowing system, like GTK+.

|  | int | x,
|  | int | y |

Checks the scene at the coordinates x and y and returns a pointer to the Clutter::Actor at those coordinates.

By using pick_mode it is possible to control which actors will be painted and thus available.

Parameters:

  | x | X coordinate to check.
  | y | Y coordinate to check.

Returns:
  The actor at the specified coordinates, if any.

guchar* Clutter::Stage::read_pixels | ( | int | x,
|  | int | y,
|  | int | width,
|  | int | height |
| ) |  |  | const

Makes a screenshot of the stage in RGBA 8bit data, returns a linear buffer with width * 4 as rowstride.

The alpha data contained in the returned buffer is driver-dependent, and not guaranteed to hold any sensible value.

Parameters:

  | x | X coordinate of the first pixel that is read from stage.
  | y | Y coordinate of the first pixel that is read from stage.
  | width | Width dimention of pixels to be read, or -1 for the entire stage width.
  | height | Height dimention of pixels to be read, or -1 for the entire stage height.

Returns:
  A pointer to newly allocated memory with the buffer or `0` if the read failed. Use Glib::free() on the returned data to release the resources it has allocated.

void Clutter::Stage::set_color | ( | const Color& | color | ) |

Sets the stage color.

Parameters:

  | color | A Clutter::Color.

void Clutter::Stage::set_fog | ( | const Fog& | fog | ) |

Sets the fog (also known as "depth cueing") settings for the stage.

A Clutter::Stage will only use a linear fog progression, which depends solely on the distance from the viewer. The cogl_set_fog() function in COGL exposes more of the underlying implementation, and allows changing the for progression function. It can be directly used by disabling the Clutter::Stage:use-fog property and connecting a signal handler to the Clutter::Actor::paint signal on the stage, like:

|[ clutter_stage_set_use_fog (stage, `false`); g_signal_connect (stage, "paint", G_CALLBACK (on_stage_paint), `0`); ]|

The paint signal handler will call cogl_set_fog() with the desired settings:

|[ static void on_stage_paint (ClutterActor *actor) { ClutterColor stage_color = { 0, }; CoglColor fog_color = { 0, };

/ * set the fog color to the stage background color * / clutter_stage_get_color (CLUTTER_STAGE (actor), &stage_color); cogl_color_set_from_4ub (&fog_color, stage_color.red, stage_color.green, stage_color.blue, stage_color.alpha);

/ * enable fog * / cogl_set_fog (&fog_color, COGL_FOG_MODE_EXPONENTIAL, / * mode * / 0.5, / * density * / 5.0, 30.0); / * z_near and z_far * / } ]|

Note:
  The fogging functions only work correctly when the visible actors use unmultiplied alpha colors. By default Cogl will premultiply textures and cogl_set_source_color will premultiply colors, so unless you explicitly load your textures requesting an unmultiplied internal_format and use cogl_material_set_color you can only use fogging with fully opaque actors.

We can look to improve this in the future when we can depend on fragment shaders.

Since cluttermm 0.6:

Parameters:

  | fog | A Clutter::Fog structure.

void Clutter::Stage::set_fullscreen | ( | bool | fullscreen = `true` | ) |

Asks to place the stage window in the fullscreen or unfullscreen states.

( Note that you shouldn't assume the window is definitely full screen afterward, because other entities (e.g. the user or window manager) could unfullscreen it again, and not all window managers honor requests to fullscreen windows.

If you want to receive notification of the fullscreen state you should either use the Clutter::Stage::fullscreen and Clutter::Stage::unfullscreen signals, or use the notify signal for the Clutter::Stage:fullscreen-set property

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | fullscreen | `true` to to set the stage fullscreen.

void Clutter::Stage::set_key_focus | ( |  | ) |

void Clutter::Stage::set_key_focus | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< Actor >& | actor | ) |

Sets the key focus on actor.

An actor with key focus will receive all the key events. If actor is `0`, the stage will receive focus.

Since cluttermm 0.6:

Parameters:

  | actor | The actor to set key focus to, or `0`.

void Clutter::Stage::set_minimum_size | ( | guint | width,
|  | guint | height |
| ) |  |  |

Sets the minimum size for a stage window, if the default backend uses Clutter::Stage inside a window.

This is a convenience function, and it is equivalent to setting the Clutter::Actor:min-width and Clutter::Actor:min-height on stage

If the current size of stage is smaller than the minimum size, the stage will be resized to the new width and height

This function has no effect if stage is fullscreen

Since cluttermm 1.2:

Parameters:

  | width | Width, in pixels.
  | height | Height, in pixels.

void Clutter::Stage::set_perspective | ( | const Perspective& | prespective | ) |

Sets the stage perspective.

Parameters:

  | perspective | A Clutter::Perspective.

void Clutter::Stage::set_throttle_motion_events | ( | bool | throttle = `true` | ) |

Sets whether motion events received between redraws should be throttled or not.

If motion events are throttled, those events received by the windowing system between redraws will be compressed so that only the last event will be propagated to the stage and its actors.

This function should only be used if you want to have all the motion events delivered to your application code.

Since cluttermm 1.0:

Parameters:

  | throttle | `true` to throttle motion events.

void Clutter::Stage::set_title | ( | const Glib::ustring & | title | ) |

Sets the stage title.

Since cluttermm 0.4:

Parameters:

  | title | A utf8 string for the stage windows title.

void Clutter::Stage::set_use_alpha | ( | bool | use_alpha = `true` | ) |

Sets whether the stage should honour the Clutter::Actor:opacity and the alpha channel of the Clutter::Stage:color.

Since cluttermm 1.2:

Parameters:

  | use_alpha | Whether the stage should honour the opacity or the alpha channel of the stage color.

void Clutter::Stage::set_use_fog | ( | bool | fog = `true` | ) |

Sets whether the depth cueing effect on the stage should be enabled or not.

Depth cueing is a 3D effect that makes actors farther away from the viewing point less opaque, by fading them with the stage color.

The parameters of the GL fog used can be changed using the set_fog() function.

Since cluttermm 0.6:

Parameters:

  | fog | `true` for enabling the depth cueing effect.

void Clutter::Stage::set_user_resizable | ( | bool | value | ) |

Sets if the stage is resizable by user interaction (e.g. via window manager controls).

Since cluttermm 0.4:

Parameters:

  | resizable | Whether the stage should be user resizable.

void Clutter::Stage::show_cursor | ( |  | ) |

Shows the cursor on the stage window.
