Thanks for your hints and explanations. The reason why I asked was, that I created a GTK3/Cairo application http://ssalewski.de/PetEd.html.en (which I just try to finish, currently in Ruby, maybe later ported to Nim) and so I was asked a few times about cairo drawing performance, and had some discussions about that topic. For my application performance is good enough, but threading support (or cairo-gl backed) is generally interesting -- so some more up to date examples would be great. I know that there is much better OpenGl support in GTK 3.16 now -- I am going to test that soon. But Cairo drawing has some benefits too, for example the various backends, which makes SVG or PDF export easy. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
