L_CopyBitmapRect

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_INT EXT_FUNCTION L_CopyBitmapRect(pBitmapDst, pBitmapSrc, uStructSize, nCol, nRow, uWidth, uHeight)

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmapDst;	/* pointer to the destination bitmap handle */
pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmapSrc;	/* pointer to the source bitmap handle */
L_UINT uStructSize;	/* size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pBitmapDst */
L_INT nCol;	/* x coordinate origin of the rectangle to copy */
L_INT nRow;	/* Y coordinate origin of the rectangle to copy */
L_UINT uWidth;	/* width of the rectangle to copy (in pixels) */
L_UINT uHeight;	/* height of the rectangle to copy (in pixels) */

Copies a portion of a bitmap to create another bitmap that is the size of the rectangle that you specify.

Parameter	Description
pBitmapDst	Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the destination bitmap.
	You do not have to initialize the bitmap handle; the L_CopyBitmapRect function initializes it for you.
pBitmapSrc	Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the source bitmap.
uStructSize	Size in bytes, of the structure pointed to by pBitmapDst, for versioning. Use sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE).
nCol	The X coordinate of the pixel within the source bitmap that is the origin of the rectangle to copy.
nRow	The Y coordinate of the pixel within the source bitmap that is the origin of the rectangle to copy.
uWidth	Width of the rectangle to copy (in pixels).
uHeight	Height of the rectangle to copy (in pixels).

Returns

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

Comments

This function duplicates the original bitmap's palette, if one is required in the new bitmap.

This function uses bitmap coordinates to specify the area to be copied. Therefore, you must account for the view perspective of the bitmap. For information about bitmap coordinates, refer to Accounting for View Perspective.

If a region is defined for the source bitmap, the region is also copied, and the region is clipped if necessary.

Example

/* This example uses L_CopyBitmapRect to copy a rectangle that would
appear in the upper left part of the displayed image. */

{
   BITMAPHANDLE TmpBitmap; /* Temporary bitmap */

   L_UINT YSize; /* Pixel height of the rectangle to process */
   RECT rc;  /* rect for converting coordinates */
   L_INT nRet = 1;
   /* Load the bitmap, at its own bits per pixel */
   nRet = L_LoadBitmap (szFilename, &TmpBitmap, sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE), 0, ORDER_BGR, NULL, NULL);
   /* Specify a rectangle in the top left part of the displayed image */
   XOffset = BITMAPWIDTH (&TmpBitmap) / 8;
   XSize = BITMAPWIDTH (&TmpBitmap) / 3;
