We've seen some Gfx functions used to draw Texture, setting color, etc.

Gfx is a static instance provided by Flora. It provides graphics-related functions.

Let's take a look at the functions of Gfx!

Gfx.SetColor(Color);
Gfx.SetColor(float, float, float, float);
Gfx.SetColor(byte, byte, byte, byte);

Sets the current drawing color.
All the textures drawn after this function call will be "tinted" with the color set with this function.
float overload expects value of 0 ~ 1 range, while byte overload excepts value of 0 ~ 255 range.

Color color = Gfx.GetColor();

Gets the current drawing color.

(int width, int height) = Gfx.GetClientSize();
int width = Gfx.GetClientWidth();
int height = Gfx.GetClientHeight();

Gets the size of the window.
Since SDL2 returns both metrics at the same time, Width/Height functions work by querying both metrics and simply discarding unwanted value.
If you want to get both width and height, use GetClientSize().

Gfx.SetClientSize(int width, int height);
Gfx.SetClientWidth(int width);
Gfx.SetClientHeight(int height);

Sets the size of the window. Does nothing when on fullscreen.
Same warning as GetClientSize, use SetClientSize(int, int) if you want to set both metrics.

Gfx.SetWindowMode(WindowMode);

Sets the window mode. Available modes are:

• WindowMode.Windowed
• WindowMode.Borderless
• WindowMode.Exclusive

Gfx.SetView(View);

Sets the view.

Gfx.Begin();

Starts the drawing state.
All drawing calls(Clear, Draw...) must be placed in between Begin and End.

Gfx.Clear();
Gfx.Clear(byte, byte, byte);
Gfx.Clear(float, float, float);
Gfx.Clear(Color);

Clear the screen.
Receives optional clear color. If not given, screen will be cleared with current drawing color.

Gfx.Draw(Texture, float, float, float, float, double, float, float, FlipMode);
Gfx.Draw(TextureRegion, float, float, float, float, double, float, float, FlipMode);

Draws the texture.

Gfx.End()

Display drawn screen and finishes drawing state.
If Vsync is enabled, Syncing will happen on this function.
