[cairo] ODP: How to get extents of transformed graphics

[Rafał Jopek]

Hi

in my opinion it should be like this and everything will be fine

         width  = fabs( x2 - x1 + 0.5 );
         height = fabs( y2 - y1 + 0.5 );

Temat: Re: [cairo] How to get extents of transformed graphics

I've tried this:

        width = fabs(x2 - floor(x1));
        height = fabs(y2 - floor(y1));

        width = ceil(width * 4.6);
        height = ceil(height * 4.6);

Still cuts off a line of the "C" shape. I've also tried this:

        width = fabs(ceil(x2) - floor(x1));
        height = fabs(ceil(y2) - floor(y1));

        width = ceil(width * 4.6);
        height = ceil(height * 4.6);

No success either. A line is cut off.

Any more ideas? You can find my test program below...
