## Detailed Description

First, a brief introduction to wxRendererNative and why it is needed.

Usually wxWidgets uses the underlying low level GUI system to draw all the controls - this is what we mean when we say that it is a "native" framework. However not all controls exist under all (or even any) platforms and in this case wxWidgets provides a default, generic, implementation of them written in wxWidgets itself.

These controls don't have the native appearance if only the standard line drawing and other graphics primitives are used, because the native appearance is different under different platforms while the lines are always drawn in the same way.

This is why we have renderers: wxRendererNative is a class which virtualizes the drawing, i.e. it abstracts the drawing operations and allows you to draw say, a button, without caring about exactly how this is done. Of course, as we can draw the button differently in different renderers, this also allows us to emulate the native look and feel.

So the renderers work by exposing a large set of high-level drawing functions which are used by the generic controls. There is always a default global renderer but it may be changed or extended by the user, see page_samples_render.

All drawing functions take some standard parameters:

- win - The window being drawn. It is normally not used and when it is it should only be used as a generic wxWindow (in order to get its low level handle, for example), but you should not assume that it is of some given type as the same renderer function may be reused for drawing different kinds of control.
- dc - The wxDC to draw on. Only this device context should be used for drawing. It is not necessary to restore pens and brushes for it on function exit but, on the other hand, you shouldn't assume that it is in any specific state on function entry: the rendering functions should always prepare it.
- rect - The bounding rectangle for the element to be drawn.
- flags - The optional flags (none by default) which can be a combination of the wxCONTROL_FLAGS.

Note that each drawing function restores the wxDC attributes if it changes them, so it is safe to assume that the same pen, brush and colours that were active before the call to this function are still in effect after it.

## ◆ GetDefault()

wxRendererNative & wxRendererNative::GetDefault | ( |  | ) |

## ◆ GetHeaderButtonHeight()

virtual int wxRendererNative::GetHeaderButtonHeight | ( | wxWindow * | win | ) |
| pure virtual

Returns the height of a header button, either a fixed platform height if available, or a generic height based on the win window's font.

Implemented in wxDelegateRendererNative.

## ◆ GetHeaderButtonMargin()

virtual int wxRendererNative::GetHeaderButtonMargin | ( | wxWindow * | win | ) |
| pure virtual

Returns the horizontal margin on the left and right sides of header button's label.

## ◆ GetSplitterParams()

virtual wxSplitterRenderParams wxRendererNative::GetSplitterParams | ( | const wxWindow * | win | ) |
| pure virtual

The win parameter should be a wxSplitterWindow.

Implemented in wxDelegateRendererNative.

## ◆ GetVersion()

virtual wxRendererVersion wxRendererNative::GetVersion | ( |  | ) | const
| pure virtual

This function is used for version checking: Load() refuses to load any shared libraries implementing an older or incompatible version.

Remarks
  The implementation of this method is always the same in all renderers (simply construct wxRendererVersion using the `wxRendererVersion::Current_XXX` values), but it has to be in the derived, not base, class, to detect mismatches between the renderers versions and so you have to implement it anew in all renderers.

Implemented in wxDelegateRendererNative.

## ◆ Load()

wxRendererNative * wxRendererNative::Load | ( | const wxString & | name | ) |
| static

Load the renderer from the specified DLL, the returned pointer must be deleted by caller if not NULL when it is not used any more.

The name should be just the base name of the renderer and not the full name of the DLL file which is constructed differently (using wxDynamicLibrary::CanonicalizePluginName()) on different systems.

## ◆ Set()

wxRendererNative * wxRendererNative::Set | ( | wxRendererNative * | renderer | ) |
| static

Set the renderer to use, passing NULL reverts to using the default renderer (the global renderer must always exist).

Return the previous renderer used with Set() or NULL if none.
