If someone can shed some light on a workaround, I'd appreciate it. I am trying to use Gtk.Window.input_shape_combine_region() and I can't figure it out on how to do it without regions.

Python cairo binding for Region and RectangleInt

I put together a patch to add binding for Region and the related RectangleInt classes. This is on the py3cairo tree. I don't see much python3 specific code though.

Please review.

Bug Fly's patch works for me.

Now I'm trying to make pygobject support the cairo_region_t.
(See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=667959 .)

Thanks for the patch, it's been applied to the git repo.

Thank you so much, Steve.

Is there a timeline for the next release?
My patch is waiting for a new pycairo release.

Ping?

Is there any chance a release will happen soon? Our project needs these changes to go out to the distributions so we can use Gdk.Window.shape_combine_region() and finish conversion from pygtk to pygi.

Is there any update on this bug?

I've recently tried porting one of my project to pygobject and now I'm blocked by this.

For future reference:
