Context.setSource

Sets the source pattern within cr to source. This pattern will then be used for any subsequent drawing operation until a new source pattern is set.

Note: The pattern's transformation matrix will be locked to the user space in effect at the time of cairo.context.Context.setSource. This means that further modifications of the current transformation matrix will not affect the source pattern. See cairo.pattern.Pattern.setMatrix.

The default source pattern is a solid pattern that is opaque black, (that is, it is equivalent to cairo_set_source_rgb(cr, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0)).
