<a name="GdkFrameClock.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>A <a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html" title="Frame clock"><span class="type">GdkFrameClock</span></a> tells the application when to update and repaint a
window. This may be synced to the vertical refresh rate of the
monitor, for example. Even when the frame clock uses a simple timer
rather than a hardware-based vertical sync, the frame clock helps
because it ensures everything paints at the same time (reducing the
total number of frames). The frame clock can also automatically
stop painting when it knows the frames will not be visible, or
scale back animation framerates.</p>
<p><a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html" title="Frame clock"><span class="type">GdkFrameClock</span></a> is designed to be compatible with an OpenGL-based
implementation or with mozRequestAnimationFrame in Firefox,
for example.</p>
<p>A frame clock is idle until someone requests a frame with
<a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html#gdk-frame-clock-request-phase" title="gdk_frame_clock_request_phase ()"><code class="function">gdk_frame_clock_request_phase()</code></a>. At some later point that makes
sense for the synchronization being implemented, the clock will
process a frame and emit signals for each phase that has been
requested. (See the signals of the <a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html" title="Frame clock"><span class="type">GdkFrameClock</span></a> class for
documentation of the phases. <a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html#GDK-FRAME-CLOCK-PHASE-UPDATE:CAPS"><code class="literal">GDK_FRAME_CLOCK_PHASE_UPDATE</code></a> and the
<a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html#GdkFrameClock-update" title="The “update” signal"><span class="type">“update”</span></a> signal are most interesting for application
writers, and are used to update the animations, using the frame time
given by <a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html#gdk-frame-clock-get-frame-time" title="gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time ()"><code class="function">gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time()</code></a>.</p>
<p>The frame time is reported in microseconds and generally in the same
timescale as <code class="function">g_get_monotonic_time()</code>, however, it is not the same
as <code class="function">g_get_monotonic_time()</code>. The frame time does not advance during
the time a frame is being painted, and outside of a frame, an attempt
is made so that all calls to <a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html#gdk-frame-clock-get-frame-time" title="gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time ()"><code class="function">gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time()</code></a> that
are called at a “similar” time get the same value. This means that
if different animations are timed by looking at the difference in
time between an initial value from <a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html#gdk-frame-clock-get-frame-time" title="gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time ()"><code class="function">gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time()</code></a>
and the value inside the <a class="link" href="GdkFrameClock.html#GdkFrameClock-update" title="The “update” signal"><span class="type">“update”</span></a> signal of the clock,
they will stay exactly synchronized.</p>
