[Gtk-sharp-list] How to make pixbuf from cairo surface

[Nicholas Frechette]

I'm not sure about drawing to a pixbuf but here is what I use to draw
to a pixmap:

private Cairo.Surface mCompositeSurface;
private Pixmap mCompositePixmap;

private void HandleDrawingAreaConfigureEvent(object o, ConfigureEventArgs args)
{
    var lAllocation = mDrawingArea.Allocation;
    mCompositePixmap = new Pixmap(args.Event.Window,
lAllocation.Width, lAllocation.Height, -1);
    mCompositeSurface = new Cairo.ImageSurface(Cairo.Format.ARGB32,
lAllocation.Width, lAllocation.Height);
    // Draw to surface here
    var lPixmapContext = CairoHelper.Create(mCompositePixmap);
    lPixmapContext.SetSourceSurface(mCompositeSurface, 0, 0);
    lPixmapContext.Paint();
}

Hope this helps.
