#### Description [src]

    final class Cogl.Display : GObject.Object

Common aspects of a display pipeline

The basic intention for this object is to let the application configure common display preferences before creating a context, and there are a few different aspects to this…

Firstly there are options directly relating to the physical display pipeline that is currently being used including the digital to analogue conversion hardware and the screens the user sees.

Another aspect is that display options may constrain or affect how onscreen framebuffers should later be configured. The original rationale for the display object in fact was to let us handle GLX and EGLs requirements that framebuffers must be “compatible” with the config associated with the current context meaning we have to force the user to describe how they would like to create their onscreen windows before we can choose a suitable fbconfig and create a GLContext.
