public final class ImageUtil
extends Object
Some utility routines for dealing with images


Variable Index

 o kHitTestRgnSrc
This is the OSType that is used to create hit test data for kAnimationCodec compressed images

Method Index

 o createSequence(File)
This routine will create an ImageDataSeqeuence object from the collection of files that are found in the specified directory that begin with the specified fileName.
 o createSequence(File, FileFilter)
This routine will create an ImageDataSeqeuence object from the collection of files that are found in the specified directory that begin with the specified fileName.
 o createSequence(Track)
This routine will create an ImageDataSeqeuence object from specified Track of a Movie.
 o makeTransparent(ImageDataSequence, QDColor, QDGraphics, Region[])
Takes an ImageSpec object and recompresses the images so that the images have the keyColor set as a transparent colour that will not draw.
 o makeTransparent(ImageSpec, QDColor)
Takes an ImageSpec object and recompresses the images so that the images have the keyColor set as a transparent colour that will not draw.
 o makeTransparent(ImageSpec, QDColor, QDGraphics)
Takes an ImageSpec object and recompresses the images so that the images have the keyColor set as a transparent colour that will not draw.
 o makeTransparent(ImageSpec, QDColor, QDGraphics, Region)

Variables

 o kHitTestRgnSrc
 public static final int kHitTestRgnSrc
This is the OSType that is used to create hit test data for kAnimationCodec compressed images

Methods

 o makeTransparent
 public static ImageDataSequence makeTransparent(ImageSpec image,
                                                 QDColor keyColor) throws QTException
Takes an ImageSpec object and recompresses the images so that the images have the keyColor set as a transparent colour that will not draw. It uses the animation codec to do this, and there is no loss in quality. This will also have a default behaviour of setting the hit test region of the image data to the pixels that are drawn when the hitTestImageData flags are specified. The images will be compressed at a default setting of 16bit resolution.

Parameters:
images - the images to be worked
keyColor - the color that will be removed from the images appearance
Returns:
an ImageDataSequence object that contains the new images
 o makeTransparent
 public static ImageDataSequence makeTransparent(ImageSpec image,
                                                 QDColor keyColor,
                                                 QDGraphics gw) throws QTException
Takes an ImageSpec object and recompresses the images so that the images have the keyColor set as a transparent colour that will not draw. It uses the animation codec to do this, and there is no loss in quality. This will use the depth of the supplied QDGraphics to compress into - pixel sizes other than 8, 16, or 32 will throw an exception. This will also have a default behaviour of setting the hit test region of the image data to the pixels that are drawn when the hitTestImageData flags are specified.

Parameters:
keyColor - the color that will be removed from the images appearance
gw - the QDGraphics that is used to contain the depth and pixel data of the recompressed image(s). This graphics should be the size of the image (or a portion) that will be used to determine which parts of the image are compressed.
Returns:
an ImageDataSequence object that contains the new images
 o makeTransparent
 public static ImageDataSequence makeTransparent(ImageSpec image,
                                                 QDColor keyColor,
                                                 QDGraphics gw,
                                                 Region r) throws QTException
Takes an ImageSpec object and recompresses the images so that the images have the keyColor set as a transparent colour that will not draw. It uses the animation codec to do this, and there is no loss in quality. This will use the depth of the supplied QDGraphics to compress into - pixel sizes other than 8, 16, or 32 will throw an exception. The r parameter allows the application to specify a Region that is used as a hit-test region - whether pixels are visible from this image at those locations or not. The hit-test Region will be applied to all of the images.

Parameters:
images - the images to be worked
keyColor - the color that will be removed from the images appearance
gw - the QDGraphics that is used to contain the depth and pixel data of the recompressed image(s). This graphics should be the size of the image (or a portion) that will be used to determine which parts of the image are compressed.
r - a hit test Region
Returns:
an ImageDataSequence object that contains the new images
 o makeTransparent
 public static ImageDataSequence makeTransparent(ImageDataSequence image,
                                                 QDColor keyColor,
                                                 QDGraphics gw,
                                                 Region r[]) throws QTException
Takes an ImageSpec object and recompresses the images so that the images have the keyColor set as a transparent colour that will not draw. It uses the animation codec to do this, and there is no loss in quality. This will use the depth of the source image to map the colour into. This will use the depth of the supplied QDGraphics to compress into - pixel sizes other than 8, 16, or 32 will throw an exception. The r parameter allows the application to specify an array of Regions that are used as hit-test regions - whether pixels are visible from this image at those locations or not. This array must at least be the same length as the number of images in the sequence. As each image is recompressed the corresponding element of the Region array will be used as the hit-test Region for that image.

Parameters:
images - the images to be worked
keyColor - the color that will be removed from the images appearance
gw - the QDGraphics that is used to contain the depth and pixel data of the recompressed image(s). This graphics should be the size of the image (or a portion) that will be used to determine which parts of the image are compressed.
r - an array of Regions that supply hit test data for each image in the sequence.
Returns:
an ImageDataSequence object that contains the new images
 o createSequence
 public static ImageDataSequence createSequence(Track imageTrack) throws QTException
This routine will create an ImageDataSeqeuence object from specified Track of a Movie. This method gets image data that matches the first sample description that is contained in the track, loads the individual frames into memory and returns an ImageDataSequence that contains the image data as described by this ImageDescription.

Parameters:
imageTrack - this track contains image data - it must contain a VideoMedia object.
Returns:
a ImageDataSequence object that contains a sequence of image data and a single description that defines the compression, bounds, etc. that is common to all of the image data objects
 o createSequence
 public static ImageDataSequence createSequence(File matchFile) throws IOException, QTException
This routine will create an ImageDataSeqeuence object from the collection of files that are found in the specified directory that begin with the specified fileName. The default FileFilter object is passed in as the filter. The default ImageUtil object is passed in as the image processor object.

Parameters:
matchFile - this should be the full path specification of a file that will be used as a pattern to match against the other files that are contained in the directory that the match file is found in.
Returns:
a ImageDataSequence object that contains a sequence of image data and a single description that defines the compression, bounds, etc. that is common to all of the image data objects

FileFilter
 o createSequence
 public static ImageDataSequence createSequence(File matchFile,
                                                FileFilter ff) throws IOException, QTException
This routine will create an ImageDataSeqeuence object from the collection of files that are found in the specified directory that begin with the specified fileName. You supply a FileFilter object to do custom filter operations. The default ImageUtil object is passed in as the image processor object.

Parameters:
matchFile - this should be the full path specification of a file that will be used as a pattern to match against the other files that are contained in the directory that the match file is found in.
ff - the file filter object
Returns:
a ImageDataSequence object that contains a sequence of image data and a single description that defines the compression, bounds, etc. that is common to all of the image data objects

FileFilter
