render_layer
Description:
public bool render_layer (Context cr, string? id, Rectangle viewport) throws Error
Renders a single SVG element in the same place as for a whole SVG document.
The viewport
gives the position and size at which the whole SVG document would be rendered. The document is scaled proportionally
to fit into this viewport; hence the individual layer may be smaller than this.
This is equivalent to [method@Rsvg.Handle.render_document], but it renders only a single element and its children, as if they composed an individual layer in the SVG. The element is rendered with the same transformation matrix as it has within the whole SVG document. Applications can use this to re-render a single element and repaint it on top of a previously-rendered document, for example.
Element IDs should look like an URL fragment identifier; for example, pass `foo
` (hash `foo`) to get the geometry of the element
that has an `id="foo"` attribute.
You can pass `NULL` for the id
if you want to render all the elements in the SVG, i.e. to render everything from the root element.
Parameters:
this |
An [class@Rsvg.Handle] |
cr |
A Cairo context |
id |
An element's id within the SVG, starting with "#" (a single hash character), for example, ` |
viewport |
Viewport size at which the whole SVG would be fitted. |
Returns:
`TRUE` on success, `FALSE` on error. Errors are returned in the throws argument. API ordering: This function must be called on a fully-loaded this. See the section "[API ordering]( class.Handle.html#api-ordering)" for details. Panics: this function will panic if the this is not fully-loaded. |
