<p>A <a class="link" href="gdk3-Visuals.html#GdkVisual"><span class="type">GdkVisual</span></a> describes a particular video hardware display format.
It includes information about the number of bits used for each color,
the way the bits are translated into an RGB value for display, and
the way the bits are stored in memory. For example, a piece of display
hardware might support 24-bit color, 16-bit color, or 8-bit color;
meaning 24/16/8-bit pixel sizes. For a given pixel size, pixels can
be in different formats; for example the “red” element of an RGB pixel
may be in the top 8 bits of the pixel, or may be in the lower 4 bits.</p>
<p>There are several standard visuals. The visual returned by
<a class="link" href="GdkScreen.html#gdk-screen-get-system-visual" title="gdk_screen_get_system_visual ()"><code class="function">gdk_screen_get_system_visual()</code></a> is the systems default visual, and
the visual returned by <a class="link" href="GdkScreen.html#gdk-screen-get-rgba-visual" title="gdk_screen_get_rgba_visual ()"><code class="function">gdk_screen_get_rgba_visual()</code></a> should be used for
creating windows with an alpha channel.</p>
<p>A number of functions are provided for determining the “best” available
visual. For the purposes of making this determination, higher bit depths
are considered better, and for visuals of the same bit depth,
<a class="link" href="gdk3-Visuals.html#GDK-VISUAL-PSEUDO-COLOR:CAPS"><code class="literal">GDK_VISUAL_PSEUDO_COLOR</code></a> is preferred at 8bpp, otherwise, the visual
types are ranked in the order of(highest to lowest)
