L_LTIMGEFX_API L_INT L_AverageFilterBitmap(pBitmap, uDim, uFlags)

pBITMAPHANDLE pBitmap;	/* pointer to the bitmap handle */
L_UINT uDim;	/* size of the averaging neighborhood */
L_UINT32 uFlags;	/* flags */

Changes the color of each pixel in a bitmap to the average color of pixels in its neighborhood. This results in a blur effect.

Parameter	Description
pBitmap	Pointer to the bitmap handle referencing the bitmap to average.
uDim	Size of the averaging neighborhood. It is the length, in pixels, of one side of a square.
uFlags	Reserved for future use. Must be 0.

Returns

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

Comments

You control the amount of blur by specifying the size of the neighborhood that is used for averaging.

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

This function supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available in the Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.

This function does not support signed data images. It returns the error code ERROR_SIGNED_DATA_NOT_SUPPORTED if a signed data image is passed to this function.
