L_SizeBitmap

#include "l_bitmap.h"

L_LTKRN_API L_INT L_SizeBitmap(pBitmap, nWidth, nHeight, uFlags)

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap;	/* pointer to the bitmap handle */
L_INT nWidth;	/* new width in pixels */
L_INT nHeight;	/* new height in pixels */
L_UINT uFlags;	/* quality control flags */

Resizes a bitmap to a new width and height.

Parameter	Description
pBitmap	Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the bitmap to be resized.
nWidth	New width in pixels.
nHeight	New height in pixels.
uFlags	Flags that control the behavior when resizing the bitmap. Use one of the following:
	Constant	Meaning
	SIZE_NORMAL	[0x0000] Resize normally.
	SIZE_FAVORBLACK	[0x0001] (Document and Medical Imaging toolkits) Preserve black objects when making the image smaller. This option affects only 1-bit, black-and-white images, where it prevents the disappearance of thin lines. You can use a bitwise OR ( \| ) to combine this flag with another one. For example, SIZE_RESAMPLE \| SIZE_FAVORBLACK causes color images to be resampled, but applies the favor-black option to 1-bit, black-and-white images.
	SIZE_RESAMPLE	[0x0002] Use linear interpolation and averaging to produce a higher-quality image.
	SIZE_BICUBIC	[0x0004] Use bicubic interpolation and averaging to produce a higher quality image. This is slower than SIZE_RESAMPLE.
	SIZE_SCALETOGRAY	[0x0008] (Document and Medical Imaging toolkits). Use interpolation to display black and white images using shades of gray when the image is resized. This improves the readability when the image is scaled up or down. The generated image is 8-bit grayscale, so this option should be used only for black and white images.

Returns

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

Comments

This function keeps the same bitmap handle and resizes the bitmap that it references. If you want to keep the original-size bitmap along with the resized bitmap, use the L_ResizeBitmap function.

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 FEATURE2 example. This example changes a bitmap to half its previous size.

#define MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(pFileName) TEXT("C:\\Users\\Public\\Documents\\LEADTOOLS Images\\")pFileName


 L_INT SizeBitmapExample(L_VOID)
{
   L_INT nRet;
   BITMAPHANDLE LeadBitmap;   /* Bitmap handle to hold the loaded image */

   /* Load the bitmap, at its own bits per pixel */
   nRet = L_LoadBitmap (MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(TEXT("ImageProcessingDemo\\Image3.cmp")), &LeadBitmap, sizeof(BITMAPHANDLE), 0, ORDER_BGR, NULL, NULL);
   if(nRet != SUCCESS)
      return nRet;
   /* Change the size of the bitmap */
   nRet = L_SizeBitmap (&LeadBitmap, LeadBitmap.Width / 2, LeadBitmap.Height / 2, SIZE_NORMAL);
   if(nRet != SUCCESS)
      return nRet;

   nRet = L_SaveBitmap(MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(TEXT("Result.BMP")), &LeadBitmap, FILE_BMP, 24, 0, NULL);
   if(nRet != SUCCESS)
      return nRet;

   if(LeadBitmap.Flags.Allocated)
      L_FreeBitmap(&LeadBitmap);  
   return SUCCESS;
