DESCRIPTION

Ncplanes are the fundamental drawing object of notcurses. All output functions take a struct ncplane as an argument. They can be any size, and placed anywhere. In addition to its framebuffer--a rectilinear matrix of cells (see notcurses_cell(3))--an ncplane is defined by:

  • a base cell, used for any cell on the plane without a glyph,
  • the egcpool backing its cells,
  • a current cursor location,
  • a current style, foreground channel, and background channel,
  • its geometry,
  • a configured user pointer,
  • its position relative to the visible plane, and
  • its z-index.

notcurses_drop_planes destroys all ncplanes other than the stdplane. Any references to such planes are, of course, invalidated.

It is an error for two threads to concurrently access a single ncplane. So long as rendering is not taking place, however, multiple threads may safely output to multiple ncplanes.

RETURN VALUES

ncplane_new(3), ncplane_aligned(3), and ncplane_dup(3) all return a new struct ncplane on success, or NULL on failure.

ncplane_userptr(3) returns the configured user pointer for the ncplane, and cannot fail.

ncplane_below(3) returns the plane below the specified ncplane. If the provided plane is the bottommost plane, NULL is returned. It cannot fail.

Functions returning int return 0 on success, and non-zero on error.

All other functions cannot fail (and return void).
