Action Plugin: Bitmap

[kingzooly]

1.0.0.1 Update :

Bitmap plugin now supports 41 actions up from 9 and is 3 times smaller (113 KB)
Bitmap is free for personal or commercial use.

What's New :

• Convert between a variety of image file formats. (.bmp, .png, .jpg, .gif and .tiff)

• Bitmap.DrawText()

• Bitmap.Shear()

• Bitmap.GlowingEdges()

• Bitmap.Pixelize()

• Bitmap.Spread()

• Bitmap.Offset()

• and so much more...

I'm working on making a help file and some examples but for now this will have to do.

How do I convert images?

Bitmap.Convert("AutoPlay\\Images\\Test.bmp", "AutoPlay\\Images\\Test.png");

How do I add effects?

Bitmap.Load("AutoPlay\\Images\\Test.bmp");
Bitmap.Grayscale();
Bitmap.Save("AutoPlay\\Images\\Test.bmp");

There are a few tools kicking about that help you create help files I still not sure what could be made with this as there so many bitmap tools out there but I am sure its useful to many that maybe want to build bitmap options on a app.

Here is 5 simple drawing functions you can use with Bitmap Action Plugin.

Copy and paste the code below into your project globals.

-- Draws a vertical line with a solid color.
function Bitmap_DrawVLine(nPos, nColor)
Lstart = 0; 
Lend = Bitmap.GetWidth();  
for pixel = Lstart, Lend do
Bitmap.SetPixel(pixel, nPos, nColor);
end
end

-- Draws a horizontal line with a solid color.
function Bitmap_DrawHLine(nPos, nColor)
Lstart = 0; 
Lend = Bitmap.GetHeight();  
for pixel = Lstart, Lend do
Bitmap.SetPixel(nPos, pixel, nColor);
end
end

-- Draws a border with a solid color.
function Bitmap_DrawBorder(nColor)
Bitmap_DrawVLine(0, nColor);
Bitmap_DrawVLine(Bitmap.GetHeight(), nColor);
Bitmap_DrawHLine(0, nColor);
Bitmap_DrawHLine(Bitmap.GetWidth(), nColor);
end

-- Draws a rectangle with a solid color.
function Bitmap_DrawRectangle(nX, nY, nColor, nSize)
Bitmap.DrawText(nX, nY, "n", nColor, 100, "Wingdings", nSize, false, false);
end

-- Draws a circle with a solid color.
function Bitmap_DrawCircle(nX, nY, nColor, nSize)
Bitmap.DrawText(nX, nY, "l", nColor, 100, "Wingdings", nSize, false, false);
end

Call these functions exactly like actions...

Bitmap.Load("AutoPlay\\Images\\bitmap.bmp");
Bitmap_DrawCircle(55,55,255,150);
Bitmap.Save("AutoPlay\\Images\\bitmap1.bmp");
