  • Drawing in GTK+
    CSci493.70 Graphical User Interface Programming Prof. Stewart Weiss Drawing in GTK+ Drawing in GTK+ Background In order to understand how to draw in GTK, you rst have to understand something about how GTK draws widgets, because how GTK draws widgets has an important role in how you design your drawing application. An understanding of how GTK draws widgets is also required if you ever plan to build your own custom widgets. Windows and Clipping Most windowing systems are designed around the idea that an application's visual display lies within a rectangular region on the screen called its window. The windowing system, e.g. Gnome or KDE or Explorer, does not automatically save the graphical content of an application's windows; instead it asks the application itself to repaint 1 its windows whenever it is needed. For example, if a window that is stacked below other windows gets raised to the top, then a client program has to repaint the area that was previously obscured. When the windowing system asks a client program to redraw part of a window, it sends an exposure event to the program that contains that window. An exposure event is simply an event sent from the underlying windowing system to a widget to notify it that it must redraw itself. In this context, a "window" means "a rectangular region with automatic clipping", not a top-level application window. Clipping is the act of removing portions of a window that do not need to be redrawn, or looked at the other way, it is determining which are the only regions of a window that must be redrawn.

It is one of the most popular Linux distributions for personal computers and network servers, and has been used as a base for other Linux distributions. Debian 2 Debian was announced in 1993 by Ian Murdock, and the first stable release was made in 1996. The development is carried out by a team of volunteers guided by a project leader and three foundational documents. New distributions are updated continually and the next candidate is released after a time-based freeze. As one of the earliest distributions in Linux's history, Debian was envisioned to be developed openly in the spirit of Linux and GNU. This vision drew the attention and support of the Free Software Foundation, who sponsored the project for the first part of its life.

Robert Krug © Morgan Rody, 2011 Title: Haptic Control with a Robotic Gripper ISSN Abstract The Novint Falcon is a low cost, 3-axis, haptic device primarily designed and built for the gaming industry. Meant to replace the conventional mouse, the Novint Falcon has sub- millimeter accuracy and is capable of real time updates. The device itself has the potential to be used in telerobotics applications when coupled with a robotic gripper for example. Recently, the Intelligent Control Lab at Örebro University in Sweden built such a robotic gripper. The robotic gripper has three fingers and an additional w-axis which is able to move two of the fingers into alternate positions. Four motors control the movement of each respective axis. The purpose of this thesis is to integrate the afore mentioned devices in such a way that the Novint Falcon will control the robotic gripper movements.
