Detailed Description These functions provide high level routines for canvas frame insertion, removal, copying etc. Function Documentation unsigned int cucul_get_frame_count (cucul_canvas_t * cv) Return the current canvas' frame count. This function never fails. Parameters: cv A libcucul canvas Returns: The frame count Referenced by cucul_set_canvas_boundaries(). int cucul_set_frame (cucul_canvas_t * cv, unsigned int id) Set the active canvas frame. All subsequent drawing operations will be performed on that frame. The current painting context set by cucul_set_attr() is inherited. If the frame index is outside the canvas' frame range, nothing happens. If an error occurs, -1 is returned and errno is set accordingly: • EINVAL Requested frame is out of range. Parameters: cv A libcucul canvas id The canvas frame to activate Returns: 0 in case of success, -1 if an error occurred. Referenced by cucul_set_canvas_boundaries(). char const* cucul_get_frame_name (cucul_canvas_t * cv) Return the current frame's name. The returned string is valid until the frame is deleted or cucul_set_frame_name() is called to change the frame name again. This function never fails. Parameters: cv A libcucul canvas. Returns: The current frame's name. int cucul_set_frame_name (cucul_canvas_t * cv, char const * name) Set the current frame's name. Upon creation, a frame has a default name of 'frame#xxxxxxxx' where xxxxxxxx is a self-incrementing hexadecimal number. If an error occurs, -1 is returned and errno is set accordingly: • ENOMEM Not enough memory to allocate new frame. Parameters: cv A libcucul canvas. name The name to give to the current frame. Returns: 0 in case of success, -1 if an error occurred. int cucul_create_frame (cucul_canvas_t * cv, unsigned int id) Create a new frame within the given canvas. Its contents and attributes are copied from the currently active frame. The frame index indicates where the frame should be inserted. Valid values range from 0 to the current canvas frame count. If the frame index is greater than or equals the current canvas frame count, the new frame is appended at the end of the canvas. The active frame does not change, but its index may be renumbered due to the insertion. If an error occurs, -1 is returned and errno is set accordingly: • ENOMEM Not enough memory to allocate new frame. Parameters: cv A libcucul canvas id The index where to insert the new frame Returns: 0 in case of success, -1 if an error occurred. Referenced by cucul_set_canvas_boundaries(). int cucul_free_frame (cucul_canvas_t * cv, unsigned int id) Delete a frame from a given canvas. The frame index indicates the frame to delete. Valid values range from 0 to the current canvas frame count minus 1. If the frame index is greater the or equals the current canvas frame count, the last frame is deleted. If the active frame is deleted, frame 0 becomes the new active frame. Otherwise, the active frame does not change, but its index may be renumbered due to the deletion. If an error occurs, -1 is returned and errno is set accordingly: • EINVAL Requested frame is out of range, or attempt to delete the last frame of the canvas. Parameters: cv A libcucul canvas id The index of the frame to delete Returns: 0 in case of success, -1 if an error occurred. Version 0.99.beta11 21 Feb 2libcucul canvas frame handling(3caca)
