<p>Many widgets, like buttons, do all their drawing themselves. You
just tell them the label you want to see, and they figure out what font
to use, draw the button outline and focus rectangle, etc. Sometimes, it
is necessary to do some custom drawing. In that case, a <a class="link" href="GtkDrawingArea.html" title="GtkDrawingArea"><span class="type">GtkDrawingArea</span></a>
might be the right widget to use. It offers a canvas on which you can
draw by connecting to the <a class="link" href="GtkWidget.html#GtkWidget-draw" title="The “draw” signal"><span class="type">“draw”</span></a> signal.
</p>
<p>The contents of a widget often need to be partially or fully redrawn,
e.g. when another window is moved and uncovers part of the widget, or
when the window containing it is resized. It is also possible to explicitly
cause part or all of the widget to be redrawn, by calling
<a class="link" href="GtkWidget.html#gtk-widget-queue-draw" title="gtk_widget_queue_draw ()"><code class="function">gtk_widget_queue_draw()</code></a> or its variants. GTK+ takes care of most of the
details by providing a ready-to-use cairo context to the ::draw signal
handler.</p>
<p>The following example shows a ::draw signal handler. It is a bit
more complicated than the previous examples, since it also demonstrates
input event handling by means of ::button-press and ::motion-notify
handlers.</p>
