Method

ClutterActorget_allocation_box

Declaration [src]

void
clutter_actor_get_allocation_box (
  ClutterActor* self,
  ClutterActorBox* box
)

Description [src]

Gets the layout box an actor has been assigned. The allocation can only be assumed valid inside a paint() method; anywhere else, it may be out-of-date.

An allocation does not incorporate the actor’s scale or translation; those transformations do not affect layout, only rendering.

Do not call any of the clutter_actor_get_allocation_*() family of functions inside the implementation of the get_preferred_width() or get_preferred_height() virtual functions.

Parameters

box

Type: ClutterActorBox

The function fills this in with the actor’s allocation.

The argument will be set by the function.

The returned data is owned by the instance.
