Hello,

is there any way to get the pixel color of a single pixel by x and y coordinates of a context?

render to a png back buffer.

see cairo_image_surface_create_for_data

then you'll be able to access the data and, at the same time, to blit your buffer to screen.


Actually I was thinking to a user defined buffer type:

struct SurfaceBuffer
{
    void* data; // used as param to create the surface
    Rgba[] opIndex(size_t index);
    Rgba[][] scanline();
}

that you would pass as data in cairo_image_surface_create_for_data().

But gtk certainly has pitcure classes with the typical scanline method and that you could use in cairo_image_surface_create_for_data.
