#include "ltwrappr.h"

L_INT LBitmap::ColoredPencil (uRatio, uDim, uFlags = 0)

L_UINT uRatio;	/* color adjustment percentage */
L_UINT uDim;	/* size of the pencil coloring neighborhood */
L_UINT32 uFlags;	/* flags */

Applies an effect to the bitmap that makes it look like it has been drawn with colored pencils.

Parameter	Description
uRatio	Value that represents how much the bitmap colors should be adjusted so they appear to be colored pencil colors. Possible values range from 0 to 100. A value of 0 means that the bitmap will not have any change in pixel values; whereas a value of 100 means that the maximum possible amount will be added to the pixel values.
uDim	Value that represents the size of the pencil coloring neighborhood. It is the length, in pixels, of one side of a square. Valid values range from 0 to 100. Increasing this value increases the thickness of the edges that are detected.
uFlags	Reserved for future use. Must be 0.

Returns

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

Example

The following example loads a bitmap and applies the colored pencil effect:

Load the bitmap, keeping the bits per pixel of the file

#define MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(pFileName) TEXT("C:\\Users\\Public\\Documents\\LEADTOOLS Images\\")pFileName
L_INT LBitmap__ColoredPencilExample()
{
   L_INT nRet;
   LBitmap LeadBitmap; 
   
   nRet =LeadBitmap.Load(MAKE_IMAGE_PATH(TEXT("IMAGE1.CMP")), 0,ORDER_BGR);
   if(nRet !=SUCCESS)
      return nRet;
   /* pencil color the bitmap with Ratio value of 50 and with a neighborhood of 3x3 pixels*/
   nRet =LeadBitmap.ColoredPencil(50, 3);
   if(nRet !=SUCCESS)
      return nRet;
   return SUCCESS;
