Description

Functions to manipulate a plug-in's context.

Functions

gimp_context_push ()

gboolean
gimp_context_push (void);

Pushes a context to the top of the plug-in's context stack.

This procedure creates a new context by copying the current context. This copy becomes the new current context for the calling plug-in until it is popped again using gimp_context_pop().

Returns

TRUE on success.

Since: 2.2


gimp_context_pop ()

gboolean
gimp_context_pop (void);

Pops the topmost context from the plug-in's context stack.

This procedure removes the topmost context from the plug-in's context stack. The context that was active before the corresponding call to gimp_context_push() becomes the new current context of the plug-in.

Returns

TRUE on success.

Since: 2.2


gimp_context_set_defaults ()

gboolean
gimp_context_set_defaults (void);

Reset context settings to their default values.

This procedure resets context settings used by various procedures to their default value. This procedure will usually be called after a context push so that a script which calls procedures affected by context settings will not be affected by changes in the global context.

Returns

TRUE on success.

Since: 2.8

Since: 2.2


gimp_context_set_foreground ()

gboolean
gimp_context_set_foreground (const GimpRGB *foreground);
