TIEGlobalSettings.WebPEngine

Declaration

property WebPEngine: TIEImagingEngine;

Description

Specifies which engine is used to load and save WebP images.

Property	Description
ieenAuto	Automatically chooses ieenDLL if the WebP DLL is found in the EXE folder, otherwise ieenLegacy (if ImageMagick is available), ieenNative (if Skia is available) or ieenWIC
ieenNative	Skia is used (Delphi 12 or newer)
ieenDLL	Uses the WebP DLL
ieenWIC	Uses the WIC API (Windows Imaging Component) - Read-Only!
ieenLegacy	Uses the ImageMagick Plug-in
ieenNone	Format is not available

Note:
◼ieenDLL requires you to ship the WebP with your application
◼Skia (ieenNative) requires Delphi 12 or newer. You must add Vcl.Skia to the uses clause (of any of your project units) and enable Skia for your project. VCL Skia support will make your EXE much larger
◼With ieenAuto, only the EXE folder is searched for relevant DLLs. For ieenDLL, the system path is also checked (or explicitly call RegisterPlugins)
◼ieenNative and ieenWIC are not supported for saving

Default: ieenAuto (which uses ieenDLL if the WebP DLL is available, otherwise ieenLegacy (if ImageMagick is available), ieenNative (if Skia is available) or ieenWIC

Example

// Use the WebP DLL to create save files
IEGlobalSettings().WebPEngine := ieenDLL;
