\section{\class{wxImage}}\label{wximage}
This class encapsulates a platform-independent image. An image can be created
via image format handlers. Functions are available to set and get image bits, so
it can be used for basic image manipulation.
-A wxImage cannot (currently) be drawn directly to a \helpref{wxDC}{wxdc}. Instead,
+A wxImage cannot (currently) be drawn directly to a \helpref{wxDC}{wxdc}. Instead,
a platform-specific \helpref{wxBitmap}{wxbitmap} object must be created from it using
-the \helpref{wxBitmap::wxBitmap(wxImage,int depth)}{wxbitmapconstr} constructor.
+the \helpref{wxBitmap::wxBitmap(wxImage,int depth)}{wxbitmapctor} constructor.
This bitmap can then
be drawn in a device context, using \helpref{wxDC::DrawBitmap}{wxdcdrawbitmap}.
One colour value of the image may be used as a mask colour which will lead to the automatic
creation of a \helpref{wxMask}{wxmask} object associated to the bitmap object.
+\wxheading{Alpha channel support}
+
+Starting from wxWidgets 2.5.0 wxImage supports alpha channel data, that is in
+addition to a byte for the red, green and blue colour components for each pixel
+it also stores a byte representing the pixel opacity. An alpha value of $0$
+corresponds to a transparent pixel (null opacity) while a value of $255$
+means that the pixel is 100\% opaque.
+
+Unlike RGB data, not all images have an alpha channel and before using
+\helpref{GetAlpha}{wximagegetalpha} you should check if this image contains
+an alpha channel with \helpref{HasAlpha}{wximagehasalpha}. Note that currently only
+images loaded from PNG files with transparency information will have an alpha
+channel but alpha support will be added to the other formats as well (as well
+as support for saving images with alpha channel which also isn't implemented).
+
\wxheading{Available image handlers}
The following image handlers are available. {\bf wxBMPHandler} is always
installed by default. To use other image formats, install the appropriate
-handler with \helpref{wxImage::AddHandler}{wximageaddhandler} or
+handler with \helpref{wxImage::AddHandler}{wximageaddhandler} or
\helpref{wxInitAllImageHandlers}{wxinitallimagehandlers}.

\membersection{wxImage::Scale}\label{wximagescale}
-\constfunc{wxImage}{Scale}{\param{int}{ width}, \param{int}{ height}}
+\constfunc{wxImage}{Scale}{\param{int}{ width}, \param{int}{ height}, \param{int}{ quality = wxIMAGE\_QUALITY\_NORMAL}}
Returns a scaled version of the image. This is also useful for
scaling bitmaps in general as the only other way to scale bitmaps
is to blit a wxMemoryDC into another wxMemoryDC.
-It may be mentioned that the GTK port uses this function internally
-to scale bitmaps when using mapping modes in wxDC.
+\docparam{quality}{Determines what method to use for resampling the image. Can be one of the following:
+
+\twocolwidtha{5cm}%
+\begin{twocollist}
+\twocolitem{{\bf wxIMAGE\_QUALITY\_NORMAL}}{Uses the normal default scaling method of pixel replication}
+\twocolitem{{\bf wxIMAGE\_QUALITY\_HIGH}}{Uses bicubic and box averaging resampling methods for upsampling and downsampling respectively}
+\end{twocollist}}
+
+It should be noted that although using wxIMAGE\_QUALITY\_HIGH produces much nicer
+looking results it is a slower method. Downsampling will use the box averaging method
+which seems to operate very fast. If you are upsampling larger images using
+this method you will most likely notice that it is a bit slower and in extreme cases
+it will be quite substantially slower as the bicubic algorithm has to process a lot of
+data.
+
+It should also be noted that the high quality scaling may not work as expected
+when using a single mask colour for transparency, as the scaling will blur the
+image and will therefore remove the mask partially. Using the alpha channel
+will work.
Example:
// rescale it to have size of 32*32
if ( bmp.GetWidth() != 32 || bmp.GetHeight() != 32 )
{
- wxImage image(bmp);
+ wxImage image = bmp.ConvertToImage();
bmp = wxBitmap(image.Scale(32, 32));

+
+Returns a resized version of this image without scaling it by adding either a border
+with the given colour or cropping as necessary. The image is pasted into a new
+image with the given {\it size} and background colour at the position {\it pos}
+relative to the upper left of the new image. If {\it red = green = blue = -1}
+then use either the current mask colour if set or find, use, and set a

+
+\func{void}{SetAlpha}{\param{unsigned char *}{alpha = {\tt NULL}},\param{bool}{ static\_data = \false}}
+
+This function is similar to \helpref{SetData}{wximagesetdata} and has similar
+restrictions. The pointer passed to it may however be {\tt NULL} in which case
+the function will allocate the alpha array internally -- this is useful to add
+alpha channel data to an image which doesn't have any. If the pointer is not
+{\tt NULL}, it must have one byte for each image pixel and be allocated with
+{\tt malloc()}. wxImage takes ownership of the pointer and will free it unless
+\arg{static\_data} parameter is set to \true -- in this case the caller should
+do it.
+
+\func{void}{SetAlpha}{\param{int }{x}, \param{int }{y}, \param{unsigned char }{alpha}}

Sets image's mask so that the pixels that have RGB value of {\it mr,mg,mb}
in {\it mask} will be masked in the image. This is done by first finding an
unused colour in the image, setting this colour as the mask colour and then
