FWH 18.03 : MakeYourBitmap(...)

[nageswaragunupudi]

FWH 18.03 introduces a new function
FW_MakeYourBitmap( nWidth, nHeight, bDraw ) --> hBitmap


The function creates a blank bitmap with size nWidth, nHeight pixels and calls bDraw with parameters hDC, nWidth, nHeight.
In this codeblock programmer can draw/write any text, images, lines, etc on hDC. The function finally returns hBitmap consisting all the elements draw in bDraw.

Example:

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

#include "fivewin.ch"

function Main()

   local oWnd, hBmp

   hBmp  := FW_MakeYourBitmap( 352, 450, { |hDC, w, h| MyBitmap( hDC, w, h ) } )

   DEFINE WINDOW oWnd
   ACTIVATE WINDOW oWnd ON PAINT oWnd:DrawImage( hBmp )

   DeleteObject( hBmp )

return nil

//----------------------------------------------------------------------------//

function MyBitmap( hDC, nWidth, nHeight )

   local aRect    := { 0, 0, nHeight, nWidth }
   local oFont

   DEFINE FONT oFont NAME "Segoe UI" SIZE 0,-48

   FW_DrawImage( hDC, "c:\fwh\bitmaps\olga1.jpg", aRect )
   FW_SayText( hDC, "OLGA", aRect, "LT", oFont, CLR_WHITE )
   FW_DrawImage( hDC, "c:\fwh\bitmaps\pngs\dvd.png", aRect, nil, nil, nil, nil, "B" )
   RELEASE FONT oFont

return nil
 

Possibilities are unlimited.

Nice.

Do you know how to save the resulting file as .tga format instead of .bmp?

You need to have FreeImage.dll in the exe path.

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

hBmp := FW_MakeYourBitmap( ... )
FW_SaveImage( hBmp, "filename.tga" )  // FWH 18.03
DeleteObject( hBmp )
