wxPostScriptDC(3)

✨ wxPostScriptDC(3) ✨

okay bestie, so this page lives in the Erlang Module Definition section, and it's all about wxPostScriptDC 💅

🎀 NAME 🎀

wxPostScriptDC — this defines the wxWidgets Encapsulated PostScript device context, which can write PostScript files on any platform. no cap. every single one. 🌈

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

See wxDC for descriptions of the member functions. (yes literally just go look at wxDC, it's all there, iykyk 🫶)

🌸 Starting a document 🌸

Okay so this part actually matters, listen up 👑

A document should be started with a call to wxDC:startDoc/2 prior to calling any function that executes a drawing operation. that's the rule, that's the vibe check, periodt. ✨

However (and this is the fun little exception 💀), some functions — like wxDC:setFont/2 — may be legitimately called even before wxDC:startDoc/2. so like, set your font first, it's fine, the DC isn't gonna be weird about it. 🎀

This class is derived, and can use functions, from:

• wxDC

wxWidgets docs: wxPostScriptDC ⭐

🦋 DATA TYPES 🦋

• wxPostScriptDC() :: wx:wx_object().

it's giving... object. that's the whole type. slay. 💜

👑 FUNCTIONS 👑

• destroy(This :: wxPostScriptDC()) -> ok.

Destroys the object. bye bestie, it was iconic, we're letting it go 🫶💀

• new() -> wxPostScriptDC().

(the no-argument glow-up version ✨)

• new(PrintData) -> wxPostScriptDC() when PrintData :: wxPrintData:wxPrintData().

Constructs a PostScript printer device context from a wxPrintData object. chef's kiss, you hand it the print data, you get a device context back 👑🔥

and that's the whole page babe, you ate it 💅
