TIEBitmap.RenderToTIEBitmap

TIEBitmap.RenderToTIEBitmap


Declaration

procedure RenderToTIEBitmap(Dest: TIEBitmap; var XLUT, YLUT: pinteger; UpdRect: PRect; xDst, yDst, dxDst, dyDst: integer; xSrc, ySrc, dxSrc, dySrc: integer; EnableAlpha: boolean; SolidBackground: boolean; Transparency: integer; Filter: TResampleFilter; FreeTables: boolean; RenderOperation: TIERenderOperation = ielNormal; Opacity: double = 1.0);


Description

Used internally to render a TIEBitmap in TImageEnView object.
The PixelFormat of Dest bitmap must be ie24RGB. The source image can be any PixelFormat.
XLUT, YLUT: x and y screen to bitmap conversion table, can be NIL
If EnableAlpha is true, then rendering will support the AlphaChannel, i.e. painting will not occur for areas of Alpha < 255

A simpler version is available via RenderToTIEBitmapEx


Opacity vs Transparency

Both the Opacity and Transparency parameters provide the same functionality. Transparency is the traditional ImageEn value, whereas Opacity provides easier PSD compatibility.
While they can be used in combination, generally only one will be used, i.e. leave Opacity=1 and make use of transparency, or alternatively, leave Transparency=255 and make use of Opacity. For example, for 50% opacity: Transparency = 255 and Opacity = 0.5, or Transparency = 128 and Opacity = 1.0
