[cairo] cairo_clip()-related question

[Gerdus van Zyl]

You seem to be abusing the cairo_save/restore calls and reusing a
cairo context for a transient window which i am not sure will work.
First try splitting out your drawing code to a seperate function that
accepts only a cairo context. Then create a new cairo surface and
context on every fillWinWithCairo but if it's a redrawRequest just add
the clip like you have it before calling drawing function.
You might also try creating an offscreen surface(create_similar) on
paint and just painting the offscreen surface on redraw.
