slint::Brush Class

class Brush;
C++
#include <slint.h>
C++

Brush is used to declare how to fill or outline shapes, such as rectangles, paths or text. A brush is either a solid color or a linear gradient.

bool operator==(const Brush &a, const Brush &b)

Returns true if a is equal to b. If a holds a color, then b must also hold a color that is identical to a’s color. If it holds a gradient, then the gradients must be identical. Returns false if the brushes differ in what they hold or their respective color or gradient are not equal.

bool operator!=(const Brush &a, const Brush &b)

Returns true if a is not equal to b; false otherwise.

slint::Brush::Brush()

Constructs a new brush that is a transparent color.

slint::Brush::Brush(const Color &color)

Constructs a new brush that is of color color.

Color slint::Brush::color() const

Returns the color of the brush. If the brush is a gradient, this function returns the color of the first stop.

Brush slint::Brush::brighter(float factor) const

Returns a new version of this brush that has the brightness increased by the specified factor. This is done by calling Color::brighter on all the colors of this brush.

Brush slint::Brush::darker(float factor) const

Returns a new version of this color that has the brightness decreased by the specified factor. This is done by calling Color::darker on all the colors of this brush.

Brush slint::Brush::transparentize(float factor) const

Returns a new version of this brush with the opacity decreased by factor.

This is done by calling Color::transparentize on all the colors of this brush.

Brush slint::Brush::with_alpha(float alpha) const

Returns a new version of this brush with the related color’s opacities set to alpha.
