\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:
\func{wxImage\& }{operator $=$}{\param{const wxImage\& }{image}}
-Assignment operator. This operator does not copy any data, but instead
-passes a pointer to the data in {\it image} and increments a reference
-counter. It is a fast operation.
