Hello,
is it possible to capture a gtk-window, save it as an image file and use
that file for printing with cairo?
At first, I tried this:
pixmap = gdk_pixmap_new(window->window, window->allocation.width,
window->allocation.height, -1);
This should save the window as a pixmap.
In order to print it, I tried gdk_cairo_set_source_pixbuf, but the
function requires a pixbuf as an argument.
How can I convert the pixmap to a pixbuf and is my approach alright?
Regards,
Fabian
