TIEBitmap.CopyRectTo

TIEBitmap.CopyRectTo


Declaration

procedure CopyRectTo(Dest: TIEBitmap; SrcX, SrcY, DstX, DstY: integer; RectWidth, RectHeight: integer; CopyAlpha: boolean = false);


Description

Copies an area of the current image to the Dest bitmap.

Parameter Description
Dest Destination bitmap
SrcX Left source position
SrcY Top source position
DstX Left destination position. Can be negative (cut top-left rectangle and reduces size)
DstY Top destination position
RectWidth Width of rectangle to copy
RectHeight Height of rectangle to copy
CopyAlpha If true alpha channel is also copied (only if the source bitmap has an alpha channel). Source alpha replaces any existing alpha

Note:
Dest must have the same PixelFormat as the image, or the image can be ie1g and dest ie24RGB (i.e. Monochrome to RGB conversion)
If the PixelFormat is ie8p, then you may also need to copy the palette


Example

// Method that takes an image, splits it into multiple cells and saves each cell to file
procedure SplitImage(Bitmap: TIEBitmap; cols, rows: integer; DestFolder: string);
var
  cellWidth, cellHeight: Double;
  x,y : Integer;
  outBmp: TIEBitmap;
begin
  cellWidth := Bitmap.Width / cols;
  cellHeight := Bitmap.Height / rows;

  outBmp := TIEBitmap.Create();
  outBmp.Allocate( Round( cellWidth ), Round( cellHeight ));

  for x := 0 to cols do
    for y := 0 to rows do
    begin
      Bitmap.CopyRectTo( outBmp,
                         Round( cellWidth * x ), Round( cellHeight * y ),
                         0, 0,
                         Round( cellWidth ), Round( cellHeight ));
      outBmp.SaveToFile( IncludeTrailingPathDelimiter( DestFolder ) + IntToStr( x ) + '_' + IntToStr( y ) + '.bmp' );
    end;

  outBmp.Free;
end;
