Draw the background to an image surface, then you can then turn into a pattern to blit it into the destination context, after which you draw the foreground on top. You could also try a recording surface. This records drawing calls, not pixels, so it can work better if you need to scale the background. -- cairo mailing list [email protected] https://lists.cairographics.org/mailman/listinfo/cairo
