L_EmbossBitmap

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTIMGEFX_API L_INT L_EmbossBitmap(pBitmap, uDirection, uDepth, uFlags)

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap;	/* pointer to the bitmap handle */
L_UINT uDirection;	/* direction of the apparent light source */
L_UINT uDepth;	/* apparent depth of this three-dimensional effect */
L_UINT32 uFlags;	/* flags*/

Applies an emboss effect to a bitmap, letting you specify the depth and direction of the effect.

Parameter	Description
pBitmap	Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the target bitmap.
uDirection	The direction of the apparent light source. Valid values are:
	EMBOSS_N	[0]
	EMBOSS_NE	[1]
	EMBOSS_E	[2]
	EMBOSS_SE	[3]
	EMBOSS_S	[4]
	EMBOSS_SW	[5]
	EMBOSS_W	[6]
	EMBOSS_NW	[7]
uDepth	The apparent depth of this three-dimensional effect. Valid values are 0 to 1000, with 500 as normal.
uFlags	Reserved for future use. Must be 0.

Returns

SUCCESS	The function was successful.
< 1	An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

To update a status bar or detect a user interrupt during execution of this function, refer to L_SetStatusCallback.

Example

For complete sample code, refer to the CHILD.C module of the DEMO example. This example loads a bitmap and embosses it.

   if(nRet !=SUCCESS)
