TImageEnProc.CreateTransitionBitmap

Declaration

procedure CreateTransitionBitmap(TransitionProgress: Single; DestBitmap: TIEBitmap);

Description

Use with PrepareTransitionBitmaps to create a series of frames that transition from one bitmap to another.


Note:
◼This is only for creating transition bitmaps for external purposes. To show an image with a transition effect in ImageEn, use RunTransition
◼If DestBitmap is attached to a TImageEnView, it will automatically call Update

// Random transition from fully black to an image

// Prepare transition
trans := TIETransitionType( 1 + Random( ord( High( TIETransitionType )) - 2 ));     // Random Transition
ImageEnView1.Proc.PrepareTransitionBitmaps( bmpIn, bmpOut, trans );

// Get transition image
