LBitmap::DiffuseGlow

#include "ltwrappr.h"

L_INT LBitmap::DiffuseGlow(nGlowAmount, uClearAmount, uSpreadAmount, uWhiteNoise, crGlowColor, uFlags = 0)

L_INT nGlowAmount;	glow intensity
L_UINT uClearAmount;	clear amount
L_UINT uSpreadAmount;	glow spread amount
L_UINT uWhiteNoise;	amount of noise
COLORREF crGlowColor;	glow color
L_UINT32 uFlags;	flags

Adds a colored glow to a bitmap's light or dark areas, making these areas shine with a neon glow.

Parameter	Description
nGlowAmount	Glow intensity, expressed in tenths of a percent. Possible values range from -1000 1000. Use positive values to add glow to the brighter regions of the image, and negative values to add glow to the darker regions of the image.
uClearAmount	Value that represents how deeply the glow will penetrate into the non-glowing areas, expressed in tenths of a percent. Possible values range from 0 1000. A value of 0 indicates total glow diffusion, whereas a value of 1000 indicates the glow does not penetrate into any of the non-glowing areas.
uSpreadAmount	Value that represents the amount of blur in the glow diffusion, from 0 to 100 pixels. Possible values range from 0 1000. A value of 0 indicates none of the glow is diffused, whereas a value of 1000 indicates maximum diffusion.
uWhiteNoise	Percent of the bitmap to be covered with added pixels, expressed in tenths of a percent. The pixels will be added randomly. Possible values range from 0 1000.
crGlowColor	The COLORREF value that specifies the glow color. You can specify a COLORREF value, such as the return value of the Windows RGB macro, or you can use the PALETTEINDEX macro to specify a palette color.
uFlags	Reserved for future use. Must be 0.

Returns

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

Comments

This filter adds pixels randomly to the bitmap. A glow is added based on a combination of the pixel colors and the glow color.

If the bitmap has a region, the effect will be applied on the region only.

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 only in the Document/Medical toolkits.

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

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.

This function does not support 32-bit grayscale images. It returns the error code ERROR_GRAY32_UNSUPPORTED if a 32-bit grayscale image is passed to this function.
