TIEBitmap.Scanline

Declaration

property Scanline[row: integer]: pointer

Description

Retrieves an entire line of pixels at a time.
Result is a pointer. Its type will depend on the bitmap's PixelFormat:

For Location=ieFile or PixelFormat=ieVirtual you can only use last line obtained from Scanline[] (consequently this is not thread safe).

Note:
◼For performance, the specified index is not checked for validity (exception will be raised if it is out-of-range).
◼Editing via scanline does not update Full, so if you are editing an alpha channel, you should call SyncFull after editing is completed
