IG_image_dimensions

This function returns the width, height, and number of Bits Per Pixel, from the DIB of the image indicated by handle hIGear.

Declaration:

	Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT ACCUAPI IG_image_dimensions_get( HIGEAR hIGear, LPAT_DIMENSION lpWidth, LPAT_DIMENSION lpHeight, LPUINT lpBitsPerPixel );

Arguments:

Name	Type	Description
hIGear	HIGEAR	ImageGear handle of image.
lpWidth	LPAT_DIMENSION	Pointer to a variable which will receive image width (number of pixels per row).
lpHeight	LPAT_DIMENSION	Pointer to a variable which will receive image height (number of rows).
lpBitsPerPixel	LPUINT	Pointer to a variable which will receive image bit depth (number of Bits Per Pixel).

Return Value:

Returns the number of ImageGear errors that occurred during this function call.

Supported Raster Image Formats:

All pixel formats supported by ImageGear Professional.

Sample:

Color, Display, Image Processing

Example:

	Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT nErrcount; // Number of errors on stack HIGEAR hIGear; // Handle of image AT_DIMENSION nWidth, nHeight; // Will hold returned width and height UINT nBpp; // Will hold returned bits per pixel // Load image file "picture.bmp" from working directory nErrcount = IG_load_file("picture.bmp", &hIGear); if(nErrcount == 0) { nErrcount = IG_image_dimensions_get(hIGear, &nWidth, &nHeight, &nBpp); // ... // Destroy the image IG_image_delete(hIGear); }

Copy Code

AT_ERRCOUNT nErrcount;  // Number of errors on stack
HIGEAR hIGear;          // Handle of image
AT_DIMENSION nWidth, nHeight;  // Will hold returned width and height
UINT nBpp;                // Will hold returned bits per pixel

// Load image file "picture.bmp" from working directory
nErrcount = IG_load_file("picture.bmp", &hIGear);
if(nErrcount == 0)
{
    nErrcount = IG_image_dimensions_get(hIGear, &nWidth, &nHeight, &nBpp);
    // ...
    // Destroy the image
    IG_image_delete(hIGear);
}

Remarks:

"Bits per Pixel" parameter does not uniquely identify the image pixel format. For example, a 8-bits per channel CMYK image and a 8-bits per channel RGBA image will have the same "Bits per Pixel" value of 32. Please use IG_image_channel_count_get, IG_image_channel_depth_get, IG_image_channel_depths_get, IG_image_colorspace_get or IG_image_DIB_info_get to obtain more specific information.
