◆ SDL_PROP_GLOBAL_VIDEO_WAYLAND_WL_DISPLAY_POINTER

#define SDL_PROP_GLOBAL_VIDEO_WAYLAND_WL_DISPLAY_POINTER   "SDL.video.wayland.wl_display"

The pointer to the global wl_display object used by the Wayland video backend.

Can be set before the video subsystem is initialized to import an external wl_display object from an application or toolkit for use in SDL, or read after initialization to export the wl_display used by the Wayland video backend. Setting this property after the video subsystem has been initialized has no effect, and reading it when the video subsystem is uninitialized will either return the user provided value, if one was set prior to initialization, or NULL. See docs/README-wayland.md for more information.

2894 * If the GL library is loaded at runtime with SDL_GL_LoadLibrary(), then all
2895 * GL functions must be retrieved this way. Usually this is used to retrieve
2896 * function pointers to OpenGL extensions.
2897 *
2898 * There are some quirks to looking up OpenGL functions that require some
2899 * extra care from the application. If you code carefully, you can handle
2900 * these quirks without any platform-specific code, though:
2901 *
2902 * - On Windows, function pointers are specific to the current GL context;
2903 * this means you need to have created a GL context and made it current
2904 * before calling SDL_GL_GetProcAddress(). If you recreate your context or
2905 * create a second context, you should assume that any existing function
2906 * pointers aren't valid to use with it. This is (currently) a
2907 * Windows-specific limitation, and in practice lots of drivers don't suffer
2908 * this limitation, but it is still the way the wgl API is documented to
2909 * work and you should expect crashes if you don't respect it. Store a copy
2910 * of the function pointers that comes and goes with context lifespan.
2911 * - On X11, function pointers returned by this function are valid for any
2912 * context, and can even be looked up before a context is created at all.
2913 * This means that, for at least some common OpenGL implementations, if you
2914 * look up a function that doesn't exist, you'll get a non-NULL result that
2915 * is _NOT_ safe to call. You must always make sure the function is actually
2916 * available for a given GL context before calling it, by checking for the
2917 * existence of the appropriate extension with SDL_GL_ExtensionSupported(),
2918 * or verifying that the version of OpenGL you're using offers the function
2919 * as core functionality.
2920 * - Some OpenGL drivers, on all platforms, *will* return NULL if a function
2921 * isn't supported, but you can't count on this behavior. Check for
2922 * extensions you use, and if you get a NULL anyway, act as if that
2923 * extension wasn't available. This is probably a bug in the driver, but you
2924 * can code defensively for this scenario anyhow.
2925 * - Just because you're on Linux/Unix, don't assume you'll be using X11.
2926 * Next-gen display servers are waiting to replace it, and may or may not
2927 * make the same promises about function pointers.
2928 * - OpenGL function pointers must be declared `APIENTRY` as in the example
2929 * code. This will ensure the proper calling convention is followed on
2930 * platforms where this matters (Win32) thereby avoiding stack corruption.

◆ SDL_DisplayID

CategoryVideo

SDL's video subsystem is largely interested in abstracting window management from the underlying operating system. You can create windows, manage them in various ways, set them fullscreen, and get events when interesting things happen with them, such as the mouse or keyboard interacting with a window.

The video subsystem is also interested in abstracting away some platform-specific differences in OpenGL: context creation, swapping buffers, etc. This may be crucial to your app, but also you are not required to use OpenGL at all. In fact, SDL can provide rendering to those windows as well, either with an easy-to-use 2D API or with a more-powerful GPU API . Of course, it can simply get out of your way and give you the window handles you need to use Vulkan, Direct3D, Metal, or whatever else you like directly, too.

The video subsystem covers a lot of functionality, out of necessity, so it is worth perusing the list of functions just to see what's available, but most apps can get by with simply creating a window and listening for events, so start with SDL_CreateWindow() and SDL_PollEvent(). This is a unique ID for a display for the time it is connected to the system, and is never reused for the lifetime of the application.

If the display is disconnected and reconnected, it will get a new ID.

The value 0 is an invalid ID.

◆ SDL_DisplayModeData

Internal display mode data.

This lives as a field in SDL_DisplayMode, as opaque data.

◆ SDL_EGLAttrib

typedef intptr_t SDL_EGLAttrib

An EGL attribute, used when creating an EGL context.

Since
This datatype is available since SDL 3.1.3.

Definition at line 345 of file SDL_video.h.

◆ SDL_EGLAttribArrayCallback

typedef SDL_EGLAttrib *(* SDL_EGLAttribArrayCallback) (void *userdata)

EGL platform attribute initialization callback.

This is called when SDL is attempting to create an EGL context, to let the app add extra attributes to its eglGetPlatformDisplay() call.

The callback should return a pointer to an EGL attribute array terminated with EGL_NONE. If this function returns NULL, the SDL_CreateWindow process will fail gracefully.

The returned pointer should be allocated with SDL_malloc() and will be passed to SDL_free().

The arrays returned by each callback will be appended to the existing attribute arrays defined by SDL.

Parameters
userdataan app-controlled pointer that is passed to the callback.
Returns
a newly-allocated array of attributes, terminated with EGL_NONE.

◆ SDL_EGLIntArrayCallback

typedef SDL_EGLint *(* SDL_EGLIntArrayCallback) (void *userdata, SDL_EGLDisplay display, SDL_EGLConfig config)

EGL surface/context attribute initialization callback types.

This is called when SDL is attempting to create an EGL surface, to let the app add extra attributes to its eglCreateWindowSurface() or eglCreateContext calls.

For convenience, the EGLDisplay and EGLConfig to use are provided to the callback.

The callback should return a pointer to an EGL attribute array terminated with EGL_NONE. If this function returns NULL, the SDL_CreateWindow process will fail gracefully.

The returned pointer should be allocated with SDL_malloc() and will be passed to SDL_free().

The arrays returned by each callback will be appended to the existing attribute arrays defined by SDL.

◆ SDL_GLAttr

enum SDL_GLAttr

An enumeration of OpenGL configuration attributes.

While you can set most OpenGL attributes normally, the attributes listed above must be known before SDL creates the window that will be used with the OpenGL context. These attributes are set and read with SDL_GL_SetAttribute() and SDL_GL_GetAttribute().

In some cases, these attributes are minimum requests; the GL does not promise to give you exactly what you asked for. It's possible to ask for a 16-bit depth buffer and get a 24-bit one instead, for example, or to ask for no stencil buffer and still have one available. Context creation should fail if the GL can't provide your requested attributes at a minimum, but you should check to see exactly what you got.

This enum is available since SDL 3.1.3.

◆ SDL_CreatePopupWindow()

SDL_Window * SDL_CreatePopupWindow ( SDL_Window parent,
int  offset_x,
int  offset_y,
int  w,
int  h,
SDL_WindowFlags  flags 
)
extern

Create a child popup window of the specified parent window.

The flags parameter must contain at least one of the following:

  • SDL_WINDOW_TOOLTIP: The popup window is a tooltip and will not pass any input events.
  • SDL_WINDOW_POPUP_MENU: The popup window is a popup menu. The topmost popup menu will implicitly gain the keyboard focus.

The following flags are not relevant to popup window creation and will be ignored:

  • SDL_WINDOW_MINIMIZED
  • SDL_WINDOW_MAXIMIZED
  • SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN
  • SDL_WINDOW_BORDERLESS

The following flags are incompatible with popup window creation and will cause it to fail:

  • SDL_WINDOW_UTILITY
  • SDL_WINDOW_MODAL

The parent parameter must be non-null and a valid window. The parent of a popup window can be either a regular, toplevel window, or another popup window.

Popup windows cannot be minimized, maximized, made fullscreen, raised, flash, be made a modal window, be the parent of a toplevel window, or grab the mouse and/or keyboard. Attempts to do so will fail.

Popup windows implicitly do not have a border/decorations and do not appear on the taskbar/dock or in lists of windows such as alt-tab menus.

If a parent window is hidden or destroyed, any child popup windows will be recursively hidden or destroyed as well. Child popup windows not explicitly hidden will be restored when the parent is shown.

Parameters
parentthe parent of the window, must not be NULL.
offset_xthe x position of the popup window relative to the origin of the parent.
offset_ythe y position of the popup window relative to the origin of the parent window.
wthe width of the window.
hthe height of the window.
flagsSDL_WINDOW_TOOLTIP or SDL_WINDOW_POPUP_MENU, and zero or more additional SDL_WindowFlags OR'd together.
Returns
the window that was created or NULL on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

◆ SDL_CreateWindow()

SDL_Window * SDL_CreateWindow ( const char *  title,
int  w,
int  h,
SDL_WindowFlags  flags 
)
extern

Create a window with the specified dimensions and flags.

flags may be any of the following OR'd together:

  • SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN: fullscreen window at desktop resolution
  • SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL: window usable with an OpenGL context
  • SDL_WINDOW_OCCLUDED: window partially or completely obscured by another window
  • SDL_WINDOW_HIDDEN: window is not visible
  • SDL_WINDOW_BORDERLESS: no window decoration
  • SDL_WINDOW_RESIZABLE: window can be resized
  • SDL_WINDOW_MINIMIZED: window is minimized
  • SDL_WINDOW_MAXIMIZED: window is maximized
  • SDL_WINDOW_MOUSE_GRABBED: window has grabbed mouse focus
  • SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_FOCUS: window has input focus
  • SDL_WINDOW_MOUSE_FOCUS: window has mouse focus
  • SDL_WINDOW_EXTERNAL: window not created by SDL
  • SDL_WINDOW_MODAL: window is modal
  • SDL_WINDOW_HIGH_PIXEL_DENSITY: window uses high pixel density back buffer if possible
  • SDL_WINDOW_MOUSE_CAPTURE: window has mouse captured (unrelated to MOUSE_GRABBED)
  • SDL_WINDOW_ALWAYS_ON_TOP: window should always be above others
  • SDL_WINDOW_UTILITY: window should be treated as a utility window, not showing in the task bar and window list
  • SDL_WINDOW_TOOLTIP: window should be treated as a tooltip and does not get mouse or keyboard focus, requires a parent window
  • SDL_WINDOW_POPUP_MENU: window should be treated as a popup menu, requires a parent window
  • SDL_WINDOW_KEYBOARD_GRABBED: window has grabbed keyboard input
  • SDL_WINDOW_VULKAN: window usable with a Vulkan instance
  • SDL_WINDOW_METAL: window usable with a Metal instance
  • SDL_WINDOW_TRANSPARENT: window with transparent buffer
  • SDL_WINDOW_NOT_FOCUSABLE: window should not be focusable

The SDL_Window is implicitly shown if SDL_WINDOW_HIDDEN is not set.

On Apple's macOS, you must set the NSHighResolutionCapable Info.plist property to YES, otherwise you will not receive a High-DPI OpenGL canvas.

The window pixel size may differ from its window coordinate size if the window is on a high pixel density display. Use SDL_GetWindowSize() to query the client area's size in window coordinates, and SDL_GetWindowSizeInPixels() or SDL_GetRenderOutputSize() to query the drawable size in pixels. Note that the drawable size can vary after the window is created and should be queried again if you get an SDL_EVENT_WINDOW_PIXEL_SIZE_CHANGED event.

If the window is created with any of the SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL or SDL_WINDOW_VULKAN flags, then the corresponding LoadLibrary function (SDL_GL_LoadLibrary or SDL_Vulkan_LoadLibrary) is called and the corresponding UnloadLibrary function is called by SDL_DestroyWindow().

If SDL_WINDOW_VULKAN is specified and there isn't a working Vulkan driver, SDL_CreateWindow() will fail, because SDL_Vulkan_LoadLibrary() will fail.

If SDL_WINDOW_METAL is specified on an OS that does not support Metal, SDL_CreateWindow() will fail.

If you intend to use this window with an SDL_Renderer, you should use SDL_CreateWindowAndRenderer() instead of this function, to avoid window flicker.

On non-Apple devices, SDL requires you to either not link to the Vulkan loader or link to a dynamic library version. This limitation may be removed in a future version of SDL.

Parameters
titlethe title of the window, in UTF-8 encoding.
wthe width of the window.
hthe height of the window.
flags0, or one or more SDL_WindowFlags OR'd together.
Returns
the window that was created or NULL on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

\threadsafety This function should only be called on the main thread.

  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_MINIMIZED_BOOLEAN: true if the window should start minimized
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_MODAL_BOOLEAN: true if the window is modal to its parent
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_MOUSE_GRABBED_BOOLEAN: true if the window starts with grabbed mouse focus
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_OPENGL_BOOLEAN: true if the window will be used with OpenGL rendering
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_PARENT_POINTER: an SDL_Window that will be the parent of this window, required for windows with the "tooltip", "menu", and "modal" properties
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_RESIZABLE_BOOLEAN: true if the window should be resizable
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_TITLE_STRING: the title of the window, in UTF-8 encoding
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_TRANSPARENT_BOOLEAN: true if the window show transparent in the areas with alpha of 0
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_TOOLTIP_BOOLEAN: true if the window is a tooltip
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_UTILITY_BOOLEAN: true if the window is a utility window, not showing in the task bar and window list
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_VULKAN_BOOLEAN: true if the window will be used with Vulkan rendering
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_WIDTH_NUMBER: the width of the window
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_X_NUMBER: the x position of the window, or SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED, defaults to SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED. This is relative to the parent for windows with the "tooltip" or "menu" property set.
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_Y_NUMBER: the y position of the window, or SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED, defaults to SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED. This is relative to the parent for windows with the "tooltip" or "menu" property set.

These are additional supported properties on macOS:

  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_COCOA_WINDOW_POINTER: the (__unsafe_unretained) NSWindow associated with the window, if you want to wrap an existing window.
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_COCOA_VIEW_POINTER: the (__unsafe_unretained) NSView associated with the window, defaults to [window contentView]

These are additional supported properties on Wayland:

  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_WAYLAND_SURFACE_ROLE_CUSTOM_BOOLEAN - true if the application wants to use the Wayland surface for a custom role and does not want it attached to an XDG toplevel window. See README/wayland for more information on using custom surfaces.
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_WAYLAND_CREATE_EGL_WINDOW_BOOLEAN - true if the application wants an associated wl_egl_window object to be created and attached to the window, even if the window does not have the OpenGL property or SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL flag set.
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_WAYLAND_WL_SURFACE_POINTER - the wl_surface associated with the window, if you want to wrap an existing window. See README/wayland for more information.

These are additional supported properties on Windows:

  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_WIN32_HWND_POINTER: the HWND associated with the window, if you want to wrap an existing window.
  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_WIN32_PIXEL_FORMAT_HWND_POINTER: optional, another window to share pixel format with, useful for OpenGL windows

These are additional supported properties with X11:

  • SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_X11_WINDOW_NUMBER: the X11 Window associated with the window, if you want to wrap an existing window.

The window is implicitly shown if the "hidden" property is not set.

Windows with the "tooltip" and "menu" properties are popup windows and have the behaviors and guidelines outlined in SDL_CreatePopupWindow().

If this window is being created to be used with an SDL_Renderer, you should not add a graphics API specific property (SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_OPENGL_BOOLEAN, etc), as SDL will handle that internally when it chooses a renderer. However, SDL might need to recreate your window at that point, which may cause the window to appear briefly, and then flicker as it is recreated. The correct approach to this is to create the window with the SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_HIDDEN_BOOLEAN property set to true, then create the renderer, then show the window with SDL_ShowWindow().

Parameters
propsthe properties to use.
Returns
the window that was created or NULL on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

This is the same area as SDL_GetDisplayBounds() reports, but with portions reserved by the system removed. For example, on Apple's macOS, this subtracts the area occupied by the menu bar and dock.

Setting a window to be fullscreen generally bypasses these unusable areas, so these are good guidelines for the maximum space available to a non-fullscreen window.

Parameters
displayIDthe instance ID of the display to query.
rectthe SDL_Rect structure filled in with the display bounds.
Returns
true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

◆ SDL_GetWindowBordersSize()

bool SDL_GetWindowBordersSize ( SDL_Window window,
int *  top,
int *  left,
int *  bottom,
int *  right 
)
extern

Get the size of a window's borders (decorations) around the client area.

Note: If this function fails (returns false), the size values will be initialized to 0, 0, 0, 0 (if a non-NULL pointer is provided), as if the window in question was borderless.

Note: This function may fail on systems where the window has not yet been decorated by the display server (for example, immediately after calling SDL_CreateWindow). It is recommended that you wait at least until the window has been presented and composited, so that the window system has a chance to decorate the window and provide the border dimensions to SDL.

This function also returns false if getting the information is not supported.

Parameters
windowthe window to query the size values of the border (decorations) from.
toppointer to variable for storing the size of the top border; NULL is permitted.
leftpointer to variable for storing the size of the left border; NULL is permitted.
bottompointer to variable for storing the size of the bottom border; NULL is permitted.
rightpointer to variable for storing the size of the right border; NULL is permitted.

◆ SDL_GetWindowDisplayScale()

float SDL_GetWindowDisplayScale ( SDL_Window window)
extern

Get the content display scale relative to a window's pixel size.

This is a combination of the window pixel density and the display content scale, and is the expected scale for displaying content in this window. For example, if a 3840x2160 window had a display scale of 2.0, the user expects the content to take twice as many pixels and be the same physical size as if it were being displayed in a 1920x1080 window with a display scale of 1.0.

Conceptually this value corresponds to the scale display setting, and is updated when that setting is changed, or the window moves to a display with a different scale setting.

Parameters
windowthe window to query.
Returns
the display scale, or 0.0f on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

◆ SDL_GL_ExtensionSupported()

bool SDL_GL_ExtensionSupported ( const char *  extension)
extern

Check if an OpenGL extension is supported for the current context.

This function operates on the current GL context; you must have created a context and it must be current before calling this function. Do not assume that all contexts you create will have the same set of extensions available, or that recreating an existing context will offer the same extensions again.

While it's probably not a massive overhead, this function is not an O(1) operation. Check the extensions you care about after creating the GL context and save that information somewhere instead of calling the function every time you need to know.

Parameters
extensionthe name of the extension to check.

◆ SDL_GL_GetProcAddress()

SDL_FunctionPointer SDL_GL_GetProcAddress ( const char *  proc)
extern

Get an OpenGL function by name.

If the GL library is loaded at runtime with SDL_GL_LoadLibrary(), then all GL functions must be retrieved this way. Usually this is used to retrieve function pointers to OpenGL extensions.

There are some quirks to looking up OpenGL functions that require some extra care from the application. If you code carefully, you can handle these quirks without any platform-specific code, though:

  • On Windows, function pointers are specific to the current GL context; this means you need to have created a GL context and made it current before calling SDL_GL_GetProcAddress(). If you recreate your context or create a second context, you should assume that any existing function pointers aren't valid to use with it. This is (currently) a Windows-specific limitation, and in practice lots of drivers don't suffer this limitation, but it is still the way the wgl API is documented to work and you should expect crashes if you don't respect it. Store a copy of the function pointers that comes and goes with context lifespan.
  • On X11, function pointers returned by this function are valid for any context, and can even be looked up before a context is created at all. This means that, for at least some common OpenGL implementations, if you look up a function that doesn't exist, you'll get a non-NULL result that is NOT safe to call. You must always make sure the function is actually available for a given GL context before calling it, by checking for the existence of the appropriate extension with SDL_GL_ExtensionSupported(), or verifying that the version of OpenGL you're using offers the function as core functionality.
  • Some OpenGL drivers, on all platforms, will return NULL if a function isn't supported, but you can't count on this behavior. Check for extensions you use, and if you get a NULL anyway, act as if that extension wasn't available. This is probably a bug in the driver, but you can code defensively for this scenario anyhow.
  • Just because you're on Linux/Unix, don't assume you'll be using X11. Next-gen display servers are waiting to replace it, and may or may not make the same promises about function pointers.
  • OpenGL function pointers must be declared APIENTRY as in the example code. This will ensure the proper calling convention is followed on platforms where this matters (Win32) thereby avoiding stack corruption.
Parameters
procthe name of an OpenGL function.
Returns
a pointer to the named OpenGL function. The returned pointer should be cast to the appropriate function signature.

◆ SDL_GL_GetSwapInterval()

bool SDL_GL_GetSwapInterval ( int *  interval)
extern

Get the swap interval for the current OpenGL context.

If the system can't determine the swap interval, or there isn't a valid current context, this function will set *interval to 0 as a safe default.

Parameters
intervaloutput interval value. 0 if there is no vertical retrace synchronization, 1 if the buffer swap is synchronized with the vertical retrace, and -1 if late swaps happen immediately instead of waiting for the next retrace.

◆ SDL_GL_SetAttribute()

bool SDL_GL_SetAttribute ( SDL_GLAttr  attr,
int  value

extern

Set an OpenGL window attribute before window creation.

This function sets the OpenGL attribute attr to value. The requested attributes should be set before creating an OpenGL window. You should use SDL_GL_GetAttribute() to check the values after creating the OpenGL context, since the values obtained can differ from the requested ones.

Parameters
attran SDL_GLAttr enum value specifying the OpenGL attribute to set.
valuethe desired value for the attribute.

◆ SDL_GL_SetSwapInterval()

bool SDL_GL_SetSwapInterval ( int  interval)
extern

Set the swap interval for the current OpenGL context.

Some systems allow specifying -1 for the interval, to enable adaptive vsync. Adaptive vsync works the same as vsync, but if you've already missed the vertical retrace for a given frame, it swaps buffers immediately, which might be less jarring for the user during occasional framerate drops. If an application requests adaptive vsync and the system does not support it, this function will fail and return false. In such a case, you should probably retry the call with 1 for the interval.

Adaptive vsync is implemented for some glX drivers with GLX_EXT_swap_control_tear, and for some Windows drivers with WGL_EXT_swap_control_tear.

Read more on the Khronos wiki: https://www.khronos.org/opengl/wiki/Swap_Interval#Adaptive_Vsync

Parameters
interval0 for immediate updates, 1 for updates synchronized with the vertical retrace, -1 for adaptive vsync.

◆ SDL_MaximizeWindow()

bool SDL_MaximizeWindow ( SDL_Window window)
extern

Request that the window be made as large as possible.

Non-resizable windows can't be maximized. The window must have the SDL_WINDOW_RESIZABLE flag set, or this will have no effect.

On some windowing systems this request is asynchronous and the new window state may not have have been applied immediately upon the return of this function. If an immediate change is required, call SDL_SyncWindow() to block until the changes have taken effect.

When the window state changes, an SDL_EVENT_WINDOW_MAXIMIZED event will be emitted. Note that, as this is just a request, the windowing system can deny the state change.

When maximizing a window, whether the constraints set via SDL_SetWindowMaximumSize() are honored depends on the policy of the window manager. Win32 and macOS enforce the constraints when maximizing, while X11 and Wayland window managers may vary.

Parameters
windowthe window to maximize.

◆ SDL_SetWindowAspectRatio()

bool SDL_SetWindowAspectRatio ( SDL_Window window,
float  min_aspect,
float  max_aspect 
)
extern

Request that the aspect ratio of a window's client area be set.

The aspect ratio is the ratio of width divided by height, e.g. 2560x1600 would be 1.6. Larger aspect ratios are wider and smaller aspect ratios are narrower.

If, at the time of this request, the window in a fixed-size state, such as maximized or fullscreen, the request will be deferred until the window exits this state and becomes resizable again.

On some windowing systems, this request is asynchronous and the new window aspect ratio may not have have been applied immediately upon the return of this function. If an immediate change is required, call SDL_SyncWindow() to block until the changes have taken effect.

When the window size changes, an SDL_EVENT_WINDOW_RESIZED event will be emitted with the new window dimensions. Note that the new dimensions may not match the exact aspect ratio requested, as some windowing systems can restrict the window size in certain scenarios (e.g. constraining the size of the content area to remain within the usable desktop bounds). Additionally, as this is just a request, it can be denied by the windowing system.

Parameters
windowthe window to change.
min_aspectthe minimum aspect ratio of the window, or 0.0f for no limit.
max_aspectthe maximum aspect ratio of the window, or 0.0f for no limit.
Returns
true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

This will add or remove the window's SDL_WINDOW_BORDERLESS flag and add or remove the border from the actual window. This is a no-op if the window's border already matches the requested state.

You can't change the border state of a fullscreen window.

Parameters
windowthe window of which to change the border state.
borderedfalse to remove border, true to add border.

◆ SDL_SetWindowFullscreen()

bool SDL_SetWindowFullscreen ( SDL_Window window,
bool  fullscreen 
)
extern

Request that the window's fullscreen state be changed.

By default a window in fullscreen state uses borderless fullscreen desktop mode, but a specific exclusive display mode can be set using SDL_SetWindowFullscreenMode().

On some windowing systems this request is asynchronous and the new fullscreen state may not have have been applied immediately upon the return of this function. If an immediate change is required, call SDL_SyncWindow() to block until the changes have taken effect.

When the window state changes, an SDL_EVENT_WINDOW_ENTER_FULLSCREEN or SDL_EVENT_WINDOW_LEAVE_FULLSCREEN event will be emitted. Note that, as this is just a request, it can be denied by the windowing system.

Parameters
windowthe window to change.
fullscreentrue for fullscreen mode, false for windowed mode.
Returns
true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

◆ SDL_SetWindowFullscreenMode()

bool SDL_SetWindowFullscreenMode ( SDL_Window window,
const SDL_DisplayMode mode 
)
extern

Set the display mode to use when a window is visible and fullscreen.

This only affects the display mode used when the window is fullscreen. To change the window size when the window is not fullscreen, use SDL_SetWindowSize().

If the window is currently in the fullscreen state, this request is asynchronous on some windowing systems and the new mode dimensions may not be applied immediately upon the return of this function. If an immediate change is required, call SDL_SyncWindow() to block until the changes have taken effect.

When the new mode takes effect, an SDL_EVENT_WINDOW_RESIZED and/or an SDL_EVENT_WINDOW_PIXEL_SIZE_CHANGED event will be emitted with the new mode dimensions.

Parameters
windowthe window to affect.
modea pointer to the display mode to use, which can be NULL for borderless fullscreen desktop mode, or one of the fullscreen modes returned by SDL_GetFullscreenDisplayModes() to set an exclusive fullscreen mode.
Returns
true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

◆ SDL_SetWindowHitTest()

bool SDL_SetWindowHitTest ( SDL_Window window,
SDL_HitTest  callback,
void *  callback_data 
)
extern

Provide a callback that decides if a window region has special properties.

Normally windows are dragged and resized by decorations provided by the system window manager (a title bar, borders, etc), but for some apps, it makes sense to drag them from somewhere else inside the window itself; for example, one might have a borderless window that wants to be draggable from any part, or simulate its own title bar, etc.

This function lets the app provide a callback that designates pieces of a given window as special. This callback is run during event processing if we need to tell the OS to treat a region of the window specially; the use of this callback is known as "hit testing."

Mouse input may not be delivered to your application if it is within a special area; the OS will often apply that input to moving the window or resizing the window and not deliver it to the application.

Specifying NULL for a callback disables hit-testing. Hit-testing is disabled by default.

Platforms that don't support this functionality will return false unconditionally, even if you're attempting to disable hit-testing.

Your callback may fire at any time, and its firing does not indicate any specific behavior (for example, on Windows, this certainly might fire when the OS is deciding whether to drag your window, but it fires for lots of other reasons, too, some unrelated to anything you probably care about and when the mouse isn't actually at the location it is testing). Since this can fire at any time, you should try to keep your callback efficient, devoid of allocations, etc.

Parameters
windowthe window to set hit-testing on.
callbackthe function to call when doing a hit-test.
callback_dataan app-defined void pointer passed to callback.
Returns
true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

◆ SDL_SetWindowIcon()

bool SDL_SetWindowIcon ( SDL_Window window,
SDL_Surface icon 
)
extern

Set the icon for a window.

If this function is passed a surface with alternate representations, the surface will be interpreted as the content to be used for 100% display scale, and the alternate representations will be used for high DPI situations. For example, if the original surface is 32x32, then on a 2x macOS display or 200% display scale on Windows, a 64x64 version of the image will be used, if available. If a matching version of the image isn't available, the closest larger size image will be downscaled to the appropriate size and be used instead, if available. Otherwise, the closest smaller image will be upscaled and be used instead.

Parameters
windowthe window to change.
iconan SDL_Surface structure containing the icon for the window.
Returns
true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

◆ SDL_SetWindowKeyboardGrab()

bool SDL_SetWindowKeyboardGrab ( SDL_Window window,
bool  grabbed 
)
extern

Set a window's keyboard grab mode.

Keyboard grab enables capture of system keyboard shortcuts like Alt+Tab or the Meta/Super key. Note that not all system keyboard shortcuts can be captured by applications (one example is Ctrl+Alt+Del on Windows).

This is primarily intended for specialized applications such as VNC clients or VM frontends. Normal games should not use keyboard grab.

When keyboard grab is enabled, SDL will continue to handle Alt+Tab when the window is full-screen to ensure the user is not trapped in your application. If you have a custom keyboard shortcut to exit fullscreen mode, you may suppress this behavior with SDL_HINT_ALLOW_ALT_TAB_WHILE_GRABBED.

If the caller enables a grab while another window is currently grabbed, the other window loses its grab in favor of the caller's window.

Parameters
windowthe window for which the keyboard grab mode should be set.
grabbedthis is true to grab keyboard, and false to release.
Returns
true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

◆ SDL_SetWindowParent()

bool SDL_SetWindowParent ( SDL_Window window,
SDL_Window parent 
)
extern

Set the window as a child of a parent window.

If the window is already the child of an existing window, it will be reparented to the new owner. Setting the parent window to NULL unparents the window and removes child window status.

If a parent window is hidden or destroyed, the operation will be recursively applied to child windows. Child windows hidden with the parent that did not have their hidden status explicitly set will be restored when the parent is shown.

Attempting to set the parent of a window that is currently in the modal state will fail. Use SDL_SetWindowModal() to cancel the modal status before attempting to change the parent.

Popup windows cannot change parents and attempts to do so will fail.

Setting a parent window that is currently the sibling or descendent of the child window results in undefined behavior.

Parameters
windowthe window that should become the child of a parent.
parentthe new parent window for the child window.
Returns

◆ SDL_SetWindowPosition()

bool SDL_SetWindowPosition ( SDL_Window window,
int  x,
int  y 
)
extern

Request that the window's position be set.

If the window is in an exclusive fullscreen or maximized state, this request has no effect.

This can be used to reposition fullscreen-desktop windows onto a different display, however, as exclusive fullscreen windows are locked to a specific display, they can only be repositioned programmatically via SDL_SetWindowFullscreenMode().

On some windowing systems this request is asynchronous and the new coordinates may not have have been applied immediately upon the return of this function. If an immediate change is required, call SDL_SyncWindow() to block until the changes have taken effect.

When the window position changes, an SDL_EVENT_WINDOW_MOVED event will be emitted with the window's new coordinates. Note that the new coordinates may not match the exact coordinates requested, as some windowing systems can restrict the position of the window in certain scenarios (e.g. constraining the position so the window is always within desktop bounds). Additionally, as this is just a request, it can be denied by the windowing system.

Parameters
windowthe window to reposition.
xthe x coordinate of the window, or SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED or SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED.
ythe y coordinate of the window, or SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED or SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED.
Returns

extern

Set the user-resizable state of a window.

This will add or remove the window's SDL_WINDOW_RESIZABLE flag and allow/disallow user resizing of the window. This is a no-op if the window's resizable state already matches the requested state.

You can't change the resizable state of a fullscreen window.

Parameters
windowthe window of which to change the resizable state.
resizabletrue to allow resizing, false to disallow.
Returns

◆ SDL_SetWindowShape()

bool SDL_SetWindowShape ( SDL_Window window,
SDL_Surface shape 
)
extern

Set the shape of a transparent window.

This sets the alpha channel of a transparent window and any fully transparent areas are also transparent to mouse clicks. If you are using something besides the SDL render API, then you are responsible for drawing the alpha channel of the window to match the shape alpha channel to get consistent cross-platform results.

The shape is copied inside this function, so you can free it afterwards. If your shape surface changes, you should call SDL_SetWindowShape() again to update the window. This is an expensive operation, so should be done sparingly.

The window must have been created with the SDL_WINDOW_TRANSPARENT flag.

Parameters
windowthe window.
shapethe surface representing the shape of the window, or NULL to remove any current shape.
Returns
true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

extern

Request that the size of a window's client area be set.

If the window is in a fullscreen or maximized state, this request has no effect.

To change the exclusive fullscreen mode of a window, use SDL_SetWindowFullscreenMode().

On some windowing systems, this request is asynchronous and the new window size may not have have been applied immediately upon the return of this function. If an immediate change is required, call SDL_SyncWindow() to block until the changes have taken effect.

◆ SDL_SyncWindow()

bool SDL_SyncWindow ( SDL_Window window)
extern

Block until any pending window state is finalized.

On asynchronous windowing systems, this acts as a synchronization barrier for pending window state. It will attempt to wait until any pending window state has been applied and is guaranteed to return within finite time. Note that for how long it can potentially block depends on the underlying window system, as window state changes may involve somewhat lengthy animations that must complete before the window is in its final requested state.

On windowing systems where changes are immediate, this does nothing.

Parameters
windowthe window for which to wait for the pending state to be applied.
Returns
true on success or false if the operation timed out before the window was in the requested state.

◆ SDL_UpdateWindowSurface()

bool SDL_UpdateWindowSurface ( SDL_Window window)
extern

Copy the window surface to the screen.

This is the function you use to reflect any changes to the surface on the screen.

This function is equivalent to the SDL 1.2 API SDL_Flip().

Parameters
windowthe window to update.
Returns
true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

◆ SDL_UpdateWindowSurfaceRects()

bool SDL_UpdateWindowSurfaceRects ( SDL_Window window,
const SDL_Rect rects,
int  numrects 
)
extern

Copy areas of the window surface to the screen.

This is the function you use to reflect changes to portions of the surface on the screen.

This function is equivalent to the SDL 1.2 API SDL_UpdateRects().

Note that this function will update at least the rectangles specified, but this is only intended as an optimization; in practice, this might update more of the screen (or all of the screen!), depending on what method SDL uses to send pixels to the system.

Parameters
windowthe window to update.
rectsan array of SDL_Rect structures representing areas of the surface to copy, in pixels.
numrectsthe number of rectangles.
Returns
true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

◆ SDL_WindowHasSurface()

bool SDL_WindowHasSurface ( SDL_Window window)
extern

Return whether the window has a surface associated with it.

Parameters
windowthe window to query.
Returns
true if there is a surface associated with the window, or false otherwise.
