1\section{\class{wxImage}}\label{wximage}
2
3This class encapsulates a platform-independent image. An image can be created
4from data, or using the constructor taking a wxBitmap object. An image
5can be loaded from a file in a variety of formats, and is extensible to new formats
6via image format handlers. Functions are available to set and get image bits, so
7it can be used for basic image manipulation.
8
9A wxImage cannot (currently) be drawn directly to a \helpref{wxDC}{wxdc}. Instead,
10a platform-specific \helpref{wxBitmap}{wxbitmap} object must be created from it using
11the \helpref{ConvertToBitmap}{wximageconverttobitmap} function. This bitmap can then
12be drawn in a device context, using \helpref{wxDC::DrawBitmap}{wxdcdrawbitmap}.
13
14One colour value of the image may be used as a mask colour which will lead to the automatic
15creation of a \helpref{wxMask}{wxmask} object associated to the bitmap object.
16
17\wxheading{Available image handlers}
18
19The following image handlers are available. {\bf wxBMPHandler} is always
20installed by default. To use other image formats, install the appropiate
21handler with \helpref{wxImage::AddHandler}{wximageaddhandler} or
22\helpref{wxInitAllImageHandlers}{wxinitallimagehandlers}.

26\twocolitem{{\bf \indexit{wxBMPHandler}}}{Only for loading, always installed.}
27\twocolitem{{\bf \indexit{wxPNGHandler}}}{For loading and saving.}
28\twocolitem{{\bf \indexit{wxJPEGHandler}}}{For loading and saving.}
29\twocolitem{{\bf \indexit{wxGIFHandler}}}{Only for loading, due to legal issues.}

32\twocolitem{{\bf \indexit{wxTIFFHandler}}}{For loading and saving.}
33\end{twocollist}
34
35When saving in PCX format, {\bf wxPCXHandler} will count the number of
36different colours in the image; if there are 256 or less colours, it will
37save as 8 bit, else it will save as 24 bit.
38
39Loading PNMs only works for ASCII or raw RGB images. When saving in
40PNM format, {\bf wxPNMHandler} will always save as raw RGB.

147\membersection{wxImage::AddHandler}\label{wximageaddhandler}
148
149\func{static void}{AddHandler}{\param{wxImageHandler*}{ handler}}
150
151Adds a handler to the end of the static list of format handlers.

161\membersection{wxImage::CleanUpHandlers}
162
163\func{static void}{CleanUpHandlers}{\void}

168
169\membersection{wxImage::ConvertToBitmap}\label{wximageconverttobitmap}
170
171\constfunc{wxBitmap}{ConvertToBitmap}{\void}
172
173Converts the image to a platform-specific bitmap object. This has to be done
174to actually display an image as you cannot draw an image directly on a window.
175The resulting bitmap will use the colour depth of the current system which entails
176that a colour reduction has to take place.
177
178When in 8-bit mode (PseudoColour mode), the GTK port will use a color cube created
179on program start-up to look up colors. This ensures a very fast conversion, but
180the image quality won't be perfect (and could be better for photo images using more
181sophisticated dithering algorithms).

512
513Rotates the image about the given point, by {\it angle} radians. Passing TRUE
514to {\it interpolating} results in better image quality, but is slower. If the
515image has a mask, then the mask colour is used for the uncovered pixels in the
516rotated image background. Else, black (rgb 0, 0, 0) will be used.

518Returns the rotated image, leaving this image intact.
519
520\membersection{wxImage::Scale}\label{wximagescale}
521
522\constfunc{wxImage}{Scale}{\param{int}{ width}, \param{int}{ height}}
523
524Returns a scaled version of the image. This is also useful for
525scaling bitmaps in general as the only other way to scale bitmaps
526is to blit a wxMemoryDC into another wxMemoryDC.
527
528It may be mentioned that the GTK port uses this function internally
529to scale bitmaps when using mapping mode in wxDC.
530
531Example:
532
533\begin{verbatim}
534 // get the bitmap from somewhere
535 wxBitmap bmp = ...;
536
537 // rescale it to have size of 32*32
538 if ( bmp.GetWidth() != 32 || bmp.GetHeight() != 32 )
539 {
540 wxImage image(bmp);
541 bmp = image.Scale(32, 32).ConvertToBitmap();
542
543 // another possibility:
544 image.Rescale(32, 32);
545 bmp = image;

568\membersection{wxImage::SetMaskColour}\label{wximagesetmaskcolour}
569
570\func{void}{SetMaskColour}{\param{unsigned char }{red}, \param{unsigned char }{blue}, \param{unsigned char }{green}}
571
572Sets the mask colour for this image (and tells the image to use the mask).
573
574\membersection{wxImage::SetRGB}\label{wximagesetrgb}
575
576\func{void}{SetRGB}{\param{int }{x}, \param{int }{y}, \param{unsigned char }{red}, \param{unsigned char }{blue}, \param{unsigned char }{green}}
577
578Sets the pixel at the given coordinate. This routine performs bounds-checks
579for the coordinate so it can be considered a safe way to manipulate the
580data, but in some cases this might be too slow so that the data will have to
581be set directly. In that case you will have to get access to the image data
582using the \helpref{GetData}{wximagegetdata} method.
583
584\membersection{wxImage::operator $=$}
585
586\func{wxImage\& }{operator $=$}{\param{const wxImage\& }{image}}
587
588Assignment operator. This operator does not copy any data, but instead
589passes a pointer to the data in {\it image} and increments a reference
590counter. It is a fast operation.
591
592\wxheading{Parameters}
593
594\docparam{image}{Image to assign.}
595
596\wxheading{Return value}
597
598Returns 'this' object.
599
600\membersection{wxImage::operator $==$}
601
602\func{bool}{operator $==$}{\param{const wxImage\& }{image}}
603
604Equality operator. This operator tests whether the internal data pointers are
605equal (a fast test).
606
607\wxheading{Parameters}
608
609\docparam{image}{Image to compare with 'this'}
610
611\wxheading{Return value}
612
613Returns TRUE if the images were effectively equal, FALSE otherwise.
614
615\membersection{wxImage::operator $!=$}
616
617\func{bool}{operator $!=$}{\param{const wxImage\& }{image}}
618
619Inequality operator. This operator tests whether the internal data pointers are
620unequal (a fast test).
621
622\wxheading{Parameters}
623
624\docparam{image}{Image to compare with 'this'}
625
626\wxheading{Return value}
627
628Returns TRUE if the images were unequal, FALSE otherwise.
629
630\section{\class{wxImageHandler}}\label{wximagehandler}
631
632This is the base class for implementing image file loading/saving, and image creation from data.
633It is used within wxImage and is not normally seen by the application.
634
635If you wish to extend the capabilities of wxImage, derive a class from wxImageHandler
636and add the handler using \helpref{wxImage::AddHandler}{wximageaddhandler} in your
637application initialisation.

690If the image file contains more than one image and the image handler is capable
691of retrieving these individually, this function will return the number of
692available images.

694\docparam{stream}{Opened input stream for reading image data. Currently, the stream must support seeking.}
695
