Glossary Item Box

This function transfers pixels from the location pointed to by lpPixel into the rectangular portion of the image specified by rectangle lpRect.

Declaration:

  Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT ACCUAPI IG_DIB_area_set (        HIGEAR hIGear, 
        const LPAT_RECT lpRect, 
        const LPAT_PIXEL lpPixel, 
        AT_MODE nPixelFormat 
);

Arguments:

hIGear ImageGear HIGEAR handle of image
lpRect Far pointer to an AT_RECT struct specifying the rectangular portion of the image bitmap to set
lpPixel Far pointer to first byte of your pixel data
nPixelFormat A constant such as IG_DIB_AREA_UNPACKED specifying in what form you are providing the pixels. The IG_DIB_AREA_... constants are listed in file accucnst.h.

Return Value:

Returns the number of ImageGear errors that occurred during this function call. If there are no errors, the return value is IGE_SUCCESS.

Supported Raster Image Formats:

All pixel formats supported by ImageGear Professional.

Sample:

        if (nBpp == 4) nPixval = 8;     /* Value to set if 4-bit   */
        if (nBpp == 1) nPixval = 1;     /* Pixel ON if 1-bit    */
                for ( pix=0,row=0; row<20; row++ ) /* For all pixels in    */
                        for ( col=0; col<20; col++ )/* the 20 x 20 array:  */
                                cPixelArray[pix++] = nPixval;   
                                /* Set unpacked in byte    */
                nErrcount = IG_DIB_area_set ( hIGear, &rcBlock, &cPixelArray[0],
IG_DIB_AREA_UNPACKED );
}
        }

Remarks:

ImageGear's pixel access functions consider the coordinates (0,0) to refer to the upper left-hand corner of the bitmap data. They do not follow the DIB's orientation, which considers (0,0) to refer to the lower left-hand corner of the bitmap.
