Description

These functions provide miscellaneous utilities for manipulating pixbufs. The pixel data in pixbufs may of course be manipulated directly by applications, but several common operations can be performed by these functions instead.

Details

gdk_pixbuf_add_alpha ()

GdkPixbuf*  gdk_pixbuf_add_alpha            (const GdkPixbuf *pixbuf,
                                             gboolean substitute_color,
                                             guchar r,
                                             guchar g,
                                             guchar b);

Takes an existing pixbuf and adds an alpha channel to it. If the original pixbuf already had alpha information, then the contents of the new pixbuf are exactly the same as the original's. Otherwise, the new pixbuf will have all pixels with full opacity if substitute_color is FALSE. If substitute_color is TRUE, then the color specified by (r, g, b) will be substituted for zero opacity.

pixbuf : A pixbuf.
substitute_color : Whether to substitute a color for zero opacity. If this is FALSE, then the (r, g, b) arguments will be ignored.
r : Red value to substitute.
g : Green value to substitute.
b : Blue value to substitute.
Returns : A newly-created pixbuf with a reference count of 1.


gdk_pixbuf_copy_area ()

void        gdk_pixbuf_copy_area            (const GdkPixbuf *src_pixbuf,
                                             int src_x,
                                             int src_y,
                                             int width,
                                             int height,
                                             GdkPixbuf *dest_pixbuf,
                                             int dest_x,
                                             int dest_y);

Copies a rectangular area from src_pixbuf to dest_pixbuf. Conversion of pixbuf formats is done automatically.

src_pixbuf : Source pixbuf.
src_x : Source X coordinate within src_pixbuf.
src_y : Source Y coordinate within src_pixbuf.
width : Width of the area to copy.
height : Height of the area to copy.
dest_pixbuf : Destination pixbuf.
dest_x : X coordinate within dest_pixbuf.
dest_y : Y coordinate within dest_pixbuf.
