An image can be created from data, or using wxBitmap::ConvertToImage. An image can be loaded from a file in a variety of formats, and is extensible to new formats via image format handlers. Functions are available to set and get image bits, so it can be used for basic image manipulation. A wxImage cannot (currently) be drawn directly to a wxDC. Instead, a platform-specific wxBitmap object must be created from it using the wxBitmap::wxBitmap(wxImage,int depth) constructor. This bitmap can then be drawn in a device context, using wxDC::DrawBitmap. More on the difference between wxImage and wxBitmap: wxImage is just a buffer of RGB bytes with an optional buffer for the alpha bytes. It is all generic, platform independent and image file format independent code. It includes generic code for scaling, resizing, clipping, and other manipulations of the image data. OTOH, wxBitmap is intended to be a wrapper of whatever is the native image format that is quickest/easiest to draw to a DC or to be the target of the drawing operations performed on a wxMemoryDC. By splitting the responsibilities between wxImage/wxBitmap like this then it's easier to use generic code shared by all platforms and image types for generic operations and platform specific code where performance or compatibility is needed. One colour value of the image may be used as a mask colour which will lead to the automatic creation of a wxMask object associated to the bitmap object. @section image_alpha Alpha channel support Starting from wxWidgets 2.5.0 wxImage supports alpha channel data, that is in addition to a byte for the red, green and blue colour components for each pixel it also stores a byte representing the pixel opacity. An alpha value of 0 corresponds to a transparent pixel (null opacity) while a value of 255 means that the pixel is 100% opaque. The constants ::wxIMAGE_ALPHA_TRANSPARENT and ::wxIMAGE_ALPHA_OPAQUE can be used to indicate those values in a more readable form. While all images have RGB data, not all images have an alpha channel. Before using wxImage::GetAlpha you should check if this image contains an alpha channel with wxImage::HasAlpha. Currently the BMP, PNG, and TIFF format handlers have full alpha channel support for loading so if you want to use alpha you have to use one of these formats. If you initialize the image alpha channel yourself using wxImage::SetAlpha, you should save it in either PNG or TGA format to avoid losing it as these are the only handlers that currently support saving with alpha. @section image_handlers Available image handlers The following image handlers are available. wxBMPHandler is always installed by default. To use other image formats, install the appropriate handler with wxImage::AddHandler or call ::wxInitAllImageHandlers(). - wxBMPHandler: For loading (including alpha support) and saving, always installed. - wxPNGHandler: For loading and saving. Includes alpha support. - wxJPEGHandler: For loading and saving. - wxGIFHandler: For loading and saving (see below). - wxPCXHandler: For loading and saving (see below). - wxPNMHandler: For loading and saving (see below). - wxTIFFHandler: For loading (including alpha support) and saving. - wxTGAHandler: For loading and saving. Includes alpha support. - wxIFFHandler: For loading only. - wxXPMHandler: For loading and saving. - wxICOHandler: For loading and saving. - wxCURHandler: For loading and saving. - wxANIHandler: For loading only. When saving in PCX format, wxPCXHandler will count the number of different colours in the image; if there are 256 or less colours, it will save as 8 bit, else it will save as 24 bit. Loading PNMs only works for ASCII or raw RGB images. When saving in PNM format, wxPNMHandler will always save as raw RGB. Saving GIFs requires images of maximum 8 bpp (see wxQuantize), and the alpha channel converted to a mask (see wxImage::ConvertAlphaToMask). Saving an animated GIF requires images of the same size (see wxGIFHandler::SaveAnimation) @library{wxcore} @category{gdi} @stdobjects ::wxNullImage @see wxBitmap, wxInitAllImageHandlers(), wxPixelData */ class wxImage : public wxObject { public: /** A simple class which stores red, green and blue values as 8 bit unsigned integers in the range of 0-255. */ class RGBValue { public: /** Constructor for RGBValue, an object that contains values for red, green and blue which represent the value of a color.
