41 This is the base class for implementing image file loading/saving, and
42 image creation from data.
43 It is used within wxImage and is not normally seen by the application.
45 If you wish to extend the capabilities of wxImage, derive a class from
46 wxImageHandler and add the handler using wxImage::AddHandler in your
47 application initialisation.
49 Note that all wxImageHandlers provided by wxWidgets are part of
50 the @ref page_libs_wxcore library.
51 For details about the default handlers, please see the section
52 @ref image_handlers in the wxImage class documentation.
55 @section imagehandler_note Note (Legal Issue)
57 This software is based in part on the work of the Independent JPEG Group.
58 (Applies when wxWidgets is linked with JPEG support.
59 wxJPEGHandler uses libjpeg created by IJG.)

203 This class encapsulates a platform-independent image.
205 An image can be created from data, or using wxBitmap::ConvertToImage.
206 An image can be loaded from a file in a variety of formats, and is extensible
207 to new formats via image format handlers. Functions are available to set and
208 get image bits, so it can be used for basic image manipulation.
210 A wxImage cannot (currently) be drawn directly to a wxDC.
211 Instead, a platform-specific wxBitmap object must be created from it using
212 the wxBitmap::wxBitmap(wxImage,int depth) constructor.
213 This bitmap can then be drawn in a device context, using wxDC::DrawBitmap.
215 One colour value of the image may be used as a mask colour which will lead to
216 the automatic creation of a wxMask object associated to the bitmap object.
219 @section image_alpha Alpha channel support
221 Starting from wxWidgets 2.5.0 wxImage supports alpha channel data, that is
222 in addition to a byte for the red, green and blue colour components for each
223 pixel it also stores a byte representing the pixel opacity.
225 An alpha value of 0 corresponds to a transparent pixel (null opacity) while
226 a value of 255 means that the pixel is 100% opaque.
227 The constants ::wxIMAGE_ALPHA_TRANSPARENT and ::wxIMAGE_ALPHA_OPAQUE can be
228 used to indicate those values in a more readable form.
230 Unlike RGB data, not all images have an alpha channel and before using
231 wxImage::GetAlpha you should check if this image contains an alpha channel
232 with wxImage::HasAlpha. Note that currently only the PNG format has full
233 alpha channel support so only the images loaded from PNG files can have
234 alpha and, if you initialize the image alpha channel yourself using
235 wxImage::SetAlpha, you should save it in PNG format to avoid losing it.
238 @section image_handlers Available image handlers
240 The following image handlers are available.
241 wxBMPHandler is always installed by default.
242 To use other image formats, install the appropriate handler with
243 wxImage::AddHandler or call ::wxInitAllImageHandlers().
245 - wxBMPHandler: For loading and saving, always installed.
246 - wxPNGHandler: For loading (including alpha support) and saving.
247 - wxJPEGHandler: For loading and saving.
248 - wxGIFHandler: Only for loading, due to legal issues.
249 - wxPCXHandler: For loading and saving (see below).
250 - wxPNMHandler: For loading and saving (see below).
251 - wxTIFFHandler: For loading and saving.
252 - wxTGAHandler: For loading only.
253 - wxIFFHandler: For loading only.
254 - wxXPMHandler: For loading and saving.
255 - wxICOHandler: For loading and saving.
256 - wxCURHandler: For loading and saving.
257 - wxANIHandler: For loading only.
259 When saving in PCX format, wxPCXHandler will count the number of different
260 colours in the image; if there are 256 or less colours, it will save as 8 bit,
261 else it will save as 24 bit.
263 Loading PNMs only works for ASCII or raw RGB images.
264 When saving in PNM format, wxPNMHandler will always save as raw RGB.
273 @see wxBitmap, wxInitAllImageHandlers(), wxPixelData
275 class wxImage
: public wxObject
282 Constructor for RGBValue, an object that contains values for red, green
283 and blue which represent the value of a color.
285 It is used by wxImage::HSVtoRGB and wxImage::RGBtoHSV, which converts
286 between HSV color space and RGB color space.
288 RGBValue(unsigned char r
=0, unsigned char g
=0, unsigned char b
=0);
295 Constructor for HSVValue, an object that contains values for hue, saturation
296 and value which represent the value of a color.
298 It is used by wxImage::HSVtoRGB() and wxImage::RGBtoHSV(), which converts
299 between HSV color space and RGB color space.
301 HSVValue(double h
=0.0, double s
=0.0, double v
=0.0);
305 Creates an empty wxImage object without an alpha channel.
310 Creates an image with the given size and clears it if requested.
312 Does not create an alpha channel.
315 Specifies the width of the image.
317 Specifies the height of the image.
319 If @true, initialize the image to black.
321 wxImage(int width
, int height
, bool clear
= true);
324 Creates an image from data in memory. If @a static_data is @false
325 then the wxImage will take ownership of the data and free it
326 afterwards. For this, it has to be allocated with @e malloc.
329 Specifies the width of the image.
331 Specifies the height of the image.
333 A pointer to RGB data
335 Indicates if the data should be free'd after use
338 wxImage(int width
, int height
, unsigned char* data
, bool static_data
= false);
341 Creates an image from data in memory. If @a static_data is @false
342 then the wxImage will take ownership of the data and free it
343 afterwards. For this, it has to be allocated with @e malloc.
346 Specifies the width of the image.
348 Specifies the height of the image.
350 A pointer to RGB data
352 A pointer to alpha-channel data
354 Indicates if the data should be free'd after use
357 wxImage(int width

361 Creates an image from XPM data.
364 A pointer to XPM image data.
366 wxImage(const char* const* xpmData
);
369 Creates an image from a file.
372 Name of the file from which to load the image.
374 May be one of the following:
375 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_BMP: Load a Windows bitmap file.
376 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_GIF: Load a GIF bitmap file.
377 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_JPEG: Load a JPEG bitmap file.
378 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_PNG: Load a PNG bitmap file.
379 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_PCX: Load a PCX bitmap file.

387 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_ANY: Will try to autodetect the format.
389 Index of the image to load in the case that the image file contains
390 multiple images. This is only used by GIF, ICO and TIFF handlers.
391 The default value (-1) means "choose the default image" and is
392 interpreted as the first image (index=0) by the GIF and TIFF handler
393 and as the largest and most colourful one by the ICO handler.
395 @remarks Depending on how wxWidgets has been configured and by which
396 handlers have been loaded, not all formats may be available.
397 Any handler other than BMP must be previously initialized with
398 wxImage::AddHandler or wxInitAllImageHandlers.
401 You can use GetOptionInt() to get the hotspot when loading cursor files:
403 int hotspot_x = image.GetOptionInt(wxIMAGE_OPTION_CUR_HOTSPOT_X);
404 int hotspot_y = image.GetOptionInt(wxIMAGE_OPTION_CUR_HOTSPOT_Y);
409 wxImage(const wxString
& name
, wxBitmapType type
= wxBITMAP_TYPE_ANY
, int index
= -1);
412 Creates an image from a file using MIME-types to specify the type.
415 Name of the file from which to load the image.
417 MIME type string (for example 'image/jpeg')
419 See description in wxImage(const wxString&, wxBitmapType, int) overload.
421 wxImage(const wxString

464 Blurs the image in both horizontal and vertical directions by the
465 specified pixel @a blurRadius. This should not be used when using
466 a single mask colour for transparency.
468 @see BlurHorizontal(), BlurVertical()
470 wxImage

474 when using a single mask colour for transparency.
476 @see Blur(), BlurVertical()
478 wxImage

481 Blurs the image in the vertical direction only. This should not be used
482 when using a single mask colour for transparency.
484 @see Blur(), BlurHorizontal()
486 wxImage
BlurVertical(int blurRadius
) const;
489 Returns @true if the current image handlers can read this file
491 static bool CanRead(const wxString
& filename
);
494 Deletes all image handlers.
495 This function is called by wxWidgets on exit.
497 static void CleanUpHandlers();
500 Computes the histogram of the image. @a histogram is a reference to
501 wxImageHistogram object. wxImageHistogram is a specialization of
502 wxHashMap "template" and is defined as follows:
505 class WXDLLEXPORT wxImageHistogramEntry
508 wxImageHistogramEntry() : index(0), value(0) {}
513 WX_DECLARE_EXPORTED_HASH_MAP(unsigned long, wxImageHistogramEntry,
514 wxIntegerHash, wxIntegerEqual,
518 @return Returns number of colours in the histogram.
520 unsigned long ComputeHistogram(wxImageHistogram
& histogram
) const;
523 If the image has alpha channel, this method converts it to mask.
525 All pixels with alpha value less than @a threshold are replaced with mask
526 colour and the alpha channel is removed. Mask colour is chosen automatically
527 using FindFirstUnusedColour().
529 If the image image doesn't have alpha channel, ConvertAlphaToMask() does nothing.
531 @return @false if FindFirstUnusedColour returns @false, @true otherwise.
533 bool ConvertAlphaToMask(unsigned char threshold
= wxIMAGE_ALPHA_THRESHOLD
);
537 Use the equivalent @ref wxBitmap::wxBitmap "wxBitmap constructor"
538 (which takes wxImage and depth as its arguments) instead.
540 wxBitmap
ConvertToBitmap() const;
543 Returns a greyscale version of the image.
545 The returned image uses the luminance component of the original to
546 calculate the greyscale. Defaults to using the standard ITU-T BT.601
547 when converting to YUV, where every pixel equals
548 (R * @a lr) + (G * @a lg) + (B * @a lb).
550 wxImage
ConvertToGreyscale(double lr
= 0.299, double lg
= 0.587, double lb
= 1.114) const;
553 Returns monochromatic version of the image.
555 The returned image has white colour where the original has @e (r,g,b)
556 colour and black colour everywhere else.
558 wxImage
ConvertToMono(unsigned char r
, unsigned char g
, unsigned char b
) const;
561 Returns an identical copy of the image.
563 wxImage
Copy() const;
566 Creates a fresh image.
568 If @a clear is @true, the new image will be initialized to black.
569 Otherwise, the image data will be uninitialized.
572 The width of the image in pixels.
574 The height of the image in pixels.
576 If @true, initialize the image data with zeros.
578 @return @true if the call succeeded, @false otherwise.
580 bool Create(int width
, int height
, bool clear
= true);
583 Destroys the image data.
588 Finds the first colour that is never used in the image.
589 The search begins at given initial colour and continues by increasing
590 R, G and B components (in this order) by 1 until an unused colour is
591 found or the colour space exhausted.
593 The parameters @a r, @a g, @a b are pointers to variables to save the colour.
595 The parameters @a startR, @a startG, @a startB define the initial values
597 The returned colour will have RGB values equal to or greater than these.
599 @return Returns @false if there is no unused colour left, @true on success.
602 This method involves computing the histogram, which is a
603 computationally intensive operation.

662 Return alpha value at given pixel location.
664 unsigned char GetAlpha(int x
, int y
) const;
667 Returns pointer to the array storing the alpha values for this image.
669 This pointer is @NULL for the images without the alpha channel. If the image
670 does have it, this pointer may be used to directly manipulate the alpha values
671 which are stored as the RGB ones.
673 unsigned char* GetAlpha() const;
676 Returns the blue intensity at the given coordinate.
678 unsigned char GetBlue(int x
, int y
) const;
681 Returns the image data as an array.
683 This is most often used when doing direct image manipulation.
684 The return value points to an array of characters in RGBRGBRGB... format
685 in the top-to-bottom, left-to-right order, that is the first RGB triplet
686 corresponds to the pixel first pixel of the first row, the second one ---
687 to the second pixel of the first row and so on until the end of the first
688 row, with second row following after it and so on.
690 You should not delete the returned pointer nor pass it to SetData().
692 unsigned char* GetData() const;
695 Returns the green intensity at the given coordinate.
697 unsigned char GetGreen(int x
, int y
) const;
700 Returns the static list of image format handlers.
704 static wxList
GetHandlers();
707 Gets the height of the image in pixels.
709 int GetHeight() const;
713 If the image file contains more than one image and the image handler is
714 capable of retrieving these individually, this function will return the
715 number of available images.
717 For the overload taking the parameter @a filename, that's the name
718 of the file to query.
719 For the overload taking the parameter @a stream, that's the ppened input
720 stream with image data. Currently, the stream must support seeking.
722 The parameter @a type may be one of the following values:
723 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_BMP: Load a Windows bitmap file.
724 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_GIF: Load a GIF bitmap file.
725 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_JPEG: Load a JPEG bitmap file.
726 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_PNG: Load a PNG bitmap file.
727 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_PCX: Load a PCX bitmap file.
728 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_PNM: Load a PNM bitmap file.
729 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_TIF: Load a TIFF bitmap file.
730 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_TGA: Load a TGA bitmap file.
731 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_XPM: Load a XPM bitmap file.
732 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_ICO: Load a Windows icon file (ICO).
733 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_CUR: Load a Windows cursor file (CUR).
734 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_ANI: Load a Windows animated cursor file (ANI).
735 @li wxBITMAP_TYPE_ANY: Will try to autodetect the format.
737 @return Number of available images. For most image handlers, this is 1
738 (exceptions are TIFF and ICO formats).

747 Iterates all registered wxImageHandler objects, and returns a string containing
748 file extension masks suitable for passing to file open/save dialog boxes.
750 @return The format of the returned string is @c "(*.ext1;*.ext2)|*.ext1;*.ext2".
751 It is usually a good idea to prepend a description before passing
752 the result to the dialog.

765 Gets the blue value of the mask colour.
767 unsigned char GetMaskBlue() const;
770 Gets the green value of the mask colour.
772 unsigned char GetMaskGreen() const;
775 Gets the red value of the mask colour.
777 unsigned char GetMaskRed() const;
780 Gets a user-defined string-valued option.
782 Currently the only defined string option is
783 @li wxIMAGE_OPTION_FILENAME: The name of the file from which the image
786 @see SetOption(), GetOptionInt(), HasOption()
789 The name of the option, case-insensitive.
791 The value of the option or an empty string if not found. Use
792 HasOption() if an empty string can be a valid option value.
794 wxString
GetOption(const wxString
& name
) const;
797 Gets a user-defined integer-valued option.
799 The function is case-insensitive to @a name.
800 If the given option is not present, the function returns 0.
801 Use HasOption() is 0 is a possibly valid value for the option.
804 @li wxIMAGE_OPTION_MAX_WIDTH and wxIMAGE_OPTION_MAX_HEIGHT: If either
805 of these options is specified, the loaded image will be scaled down
806 (preserving its aspect ratio) so that its width is less than the
807 max width given if it is not 0 @em and its height is less than the
808 max height given if it is not 0. This is typically used for loading
809 thumbnails and the advantage of using these options compared to
810 calling Rescale() after loading is that some handlers (only JPEG
811 one right now) support rescaling the image during loading which is
812 vastly more efficient than loading the entire huge image and
813 rescaling it later (if these options are not supported by the
814 handler, this is still what happens however). These options must be
815 set before calling LoadFile() to have any effect.
817 @li wxIMAGE_OPTION_QUALITY: JPEG quality used when saving. This is an
818 integer in 0..100 range with 0 meaning very poor and 100 excellent
819 (but very badly compressed). This option is currently ignored for
822 @li wxIMAGE_OPTION_RESOLUTIONUNIT: The value of this option determines
823 whether the resolution of the image is specified in centimetres or
824 inches, see wxImageResolution enum elements.
826 @li wxIMAGE_OPTION_RESOLUTION, wxIMAGE_OPTION_RESOLUTIONX and
827 wxIMAGE_OPTION_RESOLUTIONY: These options define the resolution of
828 the image in the units corresponding to wxIMAGE_OPTION_RESOLUTIONUNIT
829 options value. The first option can be set before saving the image
830 to set both horizontal and vertical resolution to the same value.
831 The X and Y options are set by the image handlers if they support
832 the image resolution (currently BMP, JPEG and TIFF handlers do) and
833 the image provides the resolution information and can be queried
834 after loading the image.
836 Options specific to wxPNGHandler:
837 @li wxIMAGE_OPTION_PNG_FORMAT: Format for saving a PNG file, see
838 wxImagePNGType for the supported values.
839 @li wxIMAGE_OPTION_PNG_BITDEPTH: Bit depth for every channel (R/G/B/A).
841 @see SetOption(), GetOption()
844 The name of the option, case-insensitive.
846 The value of the option or 0 if not found. Use HasOption() if 0
847 can be a valid option value.
849 int GetOptionInt(const wxString
& name
) const;
852 Get the current mask colour or find a suitable unused colour that could be
853 used as a mask colour. Returns @true if the image currently has a mask.
855 bool GetOrFindMaskColour(unsigned char* r
, unsigned char* g
,
856 unsigned char* b
) const;
859 Returns the palette associated with the image.

1211 You can use one of the forms above to save images to files with
1212 non-standard extensions.

1230 Returns a scaled version of the image.
1232 This is also useful for scaling bitmaps in general as the only other way
1233 to scale bitmaps is to blit a wxMemoryDC into another wxMemoryDC.
1235 The parameter @a quality determines what method to use for resampling the image.
1236 Can be one of the following:
1237 - wxIMAGE_QUALITY_NORMAL: Uses the normal default scaling method of pixel
1239 - wxIMAGE_QUALITY_HIGH: Uses bicubic and box averaging resampling methods
1240 for upsampling and downsampling respectively
1242 It should be noted that although using @c wxIMAGE_QUALITY_HIGH produces much nicer
1243 looking results it is a slower method. Downsampling will use the box averaging
1244 method which seems to operate very fast. If you are upsampling larger images using
1245 this method you will most likely notice that it is a bit slower and in extreme
1246 cases it will be quite substantially slower as the bicubic algorithm has to process a
1249 It should also be noted that the high quality scaling may not work as expected
1250 when using a single mask colour for transparency, as the scaling will blur the
1251 image and will therefore remove the mask partially. Using the alpha channel
1256 // get the bitmap from somewhere
1259 // rescale it to have size of 32*32
1260 if ( bmp.GetWidth() != 32 || bmp.GetHeight() != 32 )
1262 wxImage image = bmp.ConvertToImage();
1263 bmp = wxBitmap(image.Scale(32, 32));
1265 // another possibility:
1266 image.Rescale(32, 32);

, int height
,
1274 int quality
= wxIMAGE_QUALITY_NORMAL
) const;
1277 This function is similar to SetData() and has similar restrictions.
1279 The pointer passed to it may however be @NULL in which case the function
1280 will allocate the alpha array internally -- this is useful to add alpha
1281 channel data to an image which doesn't have any.
1283 If the pointer is not @NULL, it must have one byte for each image pixel
1284 and be allocated with malloc().
1285 wxImage takes ownership of the pointer and will free it unless @a static_data
1286 parameter is set to @true -- in this case the caller should do it.
1288 void SetAlpha(unsigned char* alpha
= NULL
,
1289 bool static_data
= false);
1292 Sets the alpha value for the given pixel.
1293 This function should only be called if the image has alpha channel data,
1294 use HasAlpha() to check for this.
1296 void SetAlpha(int x
, int y
, unsigned char alpha
);
1300 Sets the image data without performing checks.
1302 The data given must have the size (width*height*3) or results will be
1303 unexpected. Don't use this method if you aren't sure you know what you
1306 The data must have been allocated with @c malloc(), @b NOT with
1309 After this call the pointer to the data is owned by the wxImage object,
1310 that will be responsible for deleting it.
1311 Do not pass to this function a pointer obtained through GetData().
1313 void SetData(unsigned char* data

= false);
1314 void SetData(unsigned char* data
, int new_width
, int new_height
,
1315 bool static_data
= false);
1319 Specifies whether there is a mask or not.
1321 The area of the mask is determined by the current mask colour.
1323 void SetMask(bool hasMask
= true);
1326 Sets the mask colour for this image (and tells the image to use the mask).
1328 void SetMaskColour(unsigned char red
, unsigned char green
,
1329 unsigned char blue
);
1332 Sets image's mask so that the pixels that have RGB value of mr,mg,mb in
1333 mask will be masked in the image.
1335 This is done by first finding an unused colour in the image, setting
1336 this colour as the mask colour and then using this colour to draw all
1337 pixels in the image who corresponding pixel in mask has given RGB value.
1339 The parameter @a mask is the mask image to extract mask shape from.
1340 It must have the same dimensions as the image.
1342 The parameters @a mr, @a mg, @a mb are the RGB values of the pixels in
1343 mask that will be used to create the mask.
1345 @return Returns @false if mask does not have same dimensions as the image
1346 or if there is no unused colour left. Returns @true if the mask
1347 was successfully applied.
1350 Note that this method involves computing the histogram, which is a
1351 computationally intensive operation.
1353 bool SetMaskFromImage(const wxImage
& mask
, unsigned char mr
,
1359 Sets a user-defined option. The function is case-insensitive to @a name.
1361 For example, when saving as a JPEG file, the option @b quality is
1362 used, which is a number between 0 and 100 (0 is terrible, 100 is very good).
1364 @see GetOption(), GetOptionInt(), HasOption()

, const wxString
& value

1371 Associates a palette with the image.
1373 The palette may be used when converting wxImage to wxBitmap (MSW only at present)
1374 or in file save operations (none as yet).
1376 void SetPalette(const wxPalette
& palette
);
1379 Sets the colour of the pixels within the given rectangle.
1381 This routine performs bounds-checks for the coordinate so it can be considered
1382 a safe way to manipulate the data.
1384 void SetRGB(const wxRect
& rect
,
1386 unsigned char green
,
1387 unsigned char blue
);
1390 Set the type of image returned by GetType().
1392 This method is mostly used internally by the library but can also be
1393 called from the user code if the image was created from data in the
1394 given bitmap format without using LoadFile() (which would set the type
1395 correctly automatically).
1397 Notice that the image must be created before this function is called.
1402 One of bitmap type constants, @c wxBITMAP_TYPE_INVALID is a valid
1403 value for it and can be used to reset the bitmap type to default
1404 but @c wxBITMAP_TYPE_MAX is not allowed here.
1406 void SetType(wxBitmapType type
);
1409 Returns a resized version of this image without scaling it by adding either a
1410 border with the given colour or cropping as necessary.
1412 The image is pasted into a new image with the given @a size and background
1413 colour at the position @a pos relative to the upper left of the new image.
1415 If @a red = green = blue = -1 then the areas of the larger image not covered
1416 by this image are made transparent by filling them with the image mask colour
1417 (which will be allocated automatically if it isn't currently set).
1419 Otherwise, the areas will be filled with the colour with the specified RGB components.
