Cairo::Format
Inherits Enum / Comparable / Value / Object
Format is used to identify the memory format of image data.
Constants
No such format exists or is supported.
Each pixel is a 32-bit quantity, with alpha in the upper 8 bits, then red, then green, then blue. The 32-bit quantities are stored native-endian. Pre-multiplied alpha is used. (That is, 50% transparent red is 0x80800000, not 0x80ff0000.)
Each pixel is a 32-bit quantity, with the upper 8 bits unused. Red, Green, and Blue are stored in the remaining 24 bits in that order.
Each pixel is a 8-bit quantity holding an alpha value.
Each pixel is a 1-bit quantity holding an alpha value. Pixels are packed together into 32-bit quantities. The ordering of the bits matches the endianness of the platform. On a big-endian machine, the first pixel is in the uppermost bit, on a little-endian machine the first pixel is in the least-significant bit.
Each pixel is a 16-bit quantity with red in the upper 5 bits, then green in the middle 6 bits, and blue in the lower 5 bits.
Like Format::RGB24 but with 10bpc.
Instance methods
This function provides a stride value that will respect all alignment requirements of the accelerated image-rendering code within cairo.
###Parameters
- width The desired width of an image surface to be created.
###Returns The appropriate stride to use given the desired format and width, or -1 if either the format is invalid or the width too large.
