libAfterImage/picture_ximage2asimage()

NAMEpicture_ximage2asimage()

SYNOPSIS


ASImage *picture_ximage2asimage ( struct ASVisual *asv, XImage * xim, XImage *alpha_xim, unsigned int compression );

INPUTS

asv
- pointer to valid ASVisual structure
xim
- source XImage
alpha_xim
- source XImage for Alpha channel
compression
- degree of compression of resulting ASImage.

RETURN VALUE


pointer to newly allocated ASImage, containing encoded data, on success. NULL on failure.

DESCRIPTION


picture_ximage2asimage will attempt to create new ASImage with the same dimensions as supplied XImage. If both XImages are supplied - they must have same dimensions. XImage will be decoded based on supplied ASVisual, and resulting scanlines will be encoded into ASImage.

NAMEpicture2asimage()

SYNOPSIS


ASImage *picture2asimage (struct ASVisual *asv, Pixmap rgb, Pixmap a, int x, int y, unsigned int width, unsigned int height, unsigned long plane_mask, Bool keep_cache, unsigned int compression );

INPUTS

asv
- pointer to valid ASVisual structure

- source Pixmap for the alpha channel
x,
y,
width,
height- rectangle on Pixmap to be encoded into ASImage.
plane_mask
- limits color planes to be copied from Pixmap.

- indicates if we should keep XImage, used to copy image data from the X server, and attached it to ximage member of resulting ASImage.
compression
- degree of compression of resulting ASImage.

RETURN VALUE


pointer to newly allocated ASImage, containing encoded data, on success. NULL on failure.

DESCRIPTION


picture2asimage will obtain XImage of the requested area of the X Pixmap, If alpha channel pixmap is supplied - it will be used to encode ASImage's alpha channel. Alpha channel pixmap must be either 8 or 1 bit deep, and it must have the same dimensions as main Pixmap.
libAfterImage/asimage2ximage()

NAMEasimage2ximage()

SYNOPSIS


XImage *asimage2ximage (struct ASVisual *asv, ASImage *im);

INPUTS

asv
- pointer to valid ASVisual structure
im
- source ASImage

RETURN VALUE


On success returns newly created and encoded XImage of the same colordepth as the supplied ASVisual. NULL on failure.

DESCRIPTION


asimage2ximage() creates new XImage of the exact same size as supplied ASImage, and depth of supplied ASVisual. REd, Green and Blue channels of ASImage then gets decoded, and encoded into XImage. Missing scanlines get filled with black color.

NOTES


Returned pointer to XImage will also be stored in im->alt.ximage, and It will be destroyed when XImage is destroyed, or reused in any subsequent calls to asimage2ximage(). If any other behaviour is desired - make sure you set im->alt.ximage to NULL, to dissociate XImage object from ASImage.

NAMEasimage2alpha_ximage()

SYNOPSIS


XImage *asimage2alpha_ximage (struct ASVisual *asv, ASImage *im, Bool bitmap);

INPUTS

asv
- pointer to valid ASVisual structure
im
- source ASImage
bitmap
- if True resulting XImage will have depth of 1 bit - traditional X mask; otherwise it will have depth of 8 (useful for XFree86 RENDER extension)

RETURN VALUE


On success returns newly created and encoded XImage of the depth 1 or 8. NULL on failure.

DESCRIPTION


asimage2alpha_ximage() creates new XImage of the exact same size as supplied ASImage, and depth 1 or 8. Alpha channels of ASImage then gets decoded, and encoded into XImage. In case requested depth is 1 then alpha channel is interpreted like so: 127 or greater is encoded as 1, otherwise as 0. Missing scanlines get filled with 1s as they signify absence of mask.

NOTES


Returned pointer to XImage will also be stored in im->alt.mask_ximage, and It will be destroyed when XImage is destroyed, or reused in any subsequent calls to asimage2mask_ximage(). If any other behaviour is desired - make sure you set im->alt.mask_ximage to NULL, to dissociate XImage object from ASImage.
libAfterImage/asimage2mask_ximage()

NAMEasimage2mask_ximage()

- same as asimage2alpha_ximage(). Supplied for convenience and compatibility with older versions.

SYNOPSIS


XImage *asimage2mask_ximage (struct ASVisual *asv, ASImage *im);

INPUTS

asv
- pointer to valid ASVisual structure
im
- source ASImage

RETURN VALUE


On success returns newly created and encoded XImage of the depth 1. NULL on failure.
libAfterImage/asimage2pixmap()

NAMEasimage2pixmap()

SYNOPSIS


Bool asimage2drawable( struct ASVisual *asv, Drawable d, ASImage *im, GC gc, int src_x, int src_y, int dest_x, int dest_y, unsigned int width, unsigned int height, Bool use_cached);

INPUTS

asv
- pointer to valid ASVisual structure
d
- destination drawable - Pixmap or Window
im
- source ASImage
gc
- precreated GC to use for XImage transfer. If NULL, asimage2drawable() will use DefaultGC.
src_x
- Specifies the offset in X from the left edge of the image defined by the ASImage structure.
src_y
- Specifies the offset in Y from the top edge of the image defined by the ASImage structure.
dest_x,dest_y-
Specify the x and y coordinates, which are relative to the origin of the drawable and are the coordinates of the subimage.
width,height
- Specify the width and height of the subimage, which define the dimensions of the rectangle.
use_cached
- If True will make asimage2pixmap() to use XImage attached to ASImage, instead of creating new one. Only works if ASImage->ximage data member is not NULL.

RETURN VALUE


On success returns True.

DESCRIPTION


asimage2drawable() creates will copy portion of ASImage onto the X Drawable. It checks if it needs to encode XImage from ASImage data, and calls asimage2ximage() if yes, it has to. It then supplied gc or DefaultGC of the screen to transfer XImage to the server. Missing scanlines get filled with black color.

NAMEasimage2pixmap()

SYNOPSIS


Pixmap asimage2pixmap ( struct ASVisual *asv, Window root, ASImage *im, GC gc, Bool use_cached);

INPUTS

asv
- pointer to valid ASVisual structure
root
- root window of destination screen
im
- source ASImage
gc
- precreated GC to use for XImage transfer. If NULL, asimage2pixmap() will use DefaultGC.
use_cached
- If True will make asimage2pixmap() to use XImage attached to ASImage, instead of creating new one. Only works if ASImage->ximage data member is not NULL.

RETURN VALUE


On success returns newly pixmap of the same colordepth as ASVisual. None on failure.

DESCRIPTION


asimage2pixmap() creates new pixmap of exactly same size as supplied ASImage. It then calls asimage2drawable to copy entire content of the ASImage onto that created pixmap.

NAMEasimage2mask()

SYNOPSIS


Pixmap asimage2mask ( struct ASVisual *asv, Window root, ASImage *im, GC gc, Bool use_cached); asv - pointer to valid ASVisual structure root - root window of destination screen im - source ASImage gc - precreated GC for 1 bit deep drawables to use for XImage transfer. If NULL, asimage2mask() will create one. use_cached - If True will make asimage2mask() to use mask XImage attached to ASImage, instead of creating new one. Only works if ASImage->alt.mask_ximage data member is not NULL.

RETURN VALUE


On success returns newly created pixmap of the colordepth 1. None on failure.

DESCRIPTION


asimage2mask() creates new pixmap of exactly same size as supplied ASImage. It then calls asimage2mask_ximage(). It then uses supplied gc, or creates new gc, to transfer XImage to the server and put it on Pixmap. Missing scanlines get filled with 1s.
