LBitmap::ChangeSaturation

Summary

Increases or decreases the saturation of colors in the class object's bitmap.

Syntax

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LBitmap::ChangeSaturation(nChange, uFlags = 0)

Parameters

L_INT nChange

Amount to change saturation. Values are percentages between -100 and +100.

L_UINT32 uFlags

Reserved for future use. Must be 0.

Returns

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

Comments

Negative values decrease the saturation of colors. Positive values increase the saturation. The saturation level is increased or decreased by a percentage of its present saturation level. For example, an increase of 20% of the current saturation level "L" will raise the new saturation level "L1" to a value L + 0.20 * L. Likewise, increasing the saturation level 100% doubles the saturation level ( L1 = L + 1.0 * L). Decreasing the saturation level 100% will set the new saturation level to 0. This process is carried out for every pixel.

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.

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.
