GDI+ revisited

[NoCforMe]

I had a thread on GDI+ going here a (couple? few?) years ago which got me started. Now I'm back on that project and have more questions.

I'm going to have a lot more questions, and will post some code I'm working on, but for now, one general question:

When using GDI+, can I also use regular GDI functions? Or should I not use them? Are the two worlds completely separate? or can I mix and match?

For instance, in trying to set the origin of my viewport, can I use SetWindowOrgEx()? or do I need to rely only on the GDI+ functions? (I'm using the GDI+ "flat" API here, which has regular functions as opposed to those designed for C++.)

Thanks for anyone who can answer this without going too far off topic.

[jj2007]

Iirc you can mix them

[Greenhorn]

> When using GDI+, can I also use regular GDI functions? Or should I not use them? Are the two worlds completely separate? or can I mix and match?

Of course you can do. There are no restrictions. Consider the "+" on GDI+.

Yes, that makes sense.

OK, here's a little testbed I'm using to learn this stuff. If you run it, you can use the trackbar to change the size of the image (in % scale). Notice how the image jumps around as you resize it. Can anyone tell me what's going on here?

Obviously my understanding of how this stuff works is far from perfect. I'm either not doing some things I should be doing, or doing something wrong. There's the transform matrix, for one thing: I was using it to change the scale (in the WM_PAINT handler), which did the same thing as this. So I tried using GdipScaleWorldTransform(), in the message handler for the trackbar; same result. And you'll notice some things commented out in the code.

What I want to do is to pin down the origin of this image so it stays at the same place in the window. That would probably be at the upper-left corner of the image.

I also understand that GDI+ reckons the Cartesian coordinates differently from the GUI; the GUI Y-position increases from top to bottom, whereas GDI+ increases from bottom to top (as in a true Cartesian system); one more point of confusion to deal with here.

[jj2007]

What I want to do is to pin down the origin of this image so it stays at the same place in the window.

Try this in line 241:

INVOKE   GdipDrawImageI, gdiHgraphics, GdiHbitmap, $mainWinWidth / 20, $mainWinHeight / 20

[NoCforMe]

That's definitely better, but it doesn't solve the problem; the image stays pretty much within the window, but its position still changes (X increases, Y decreases). Seems like a kluge rather than a solution.

I wish someone could explain to me how, exactly, positioning works here. And of course there's all that stuff about world--> page--> device mapping, which I kinda sorta understand ...

[mabdelouahab]

If I had enough time, I would make an example for you
But I think you are missing some steps
I'm not sure but try :

Code: [Select]

        Invoke GdipCreateFromHDC, hdc, Addr pGraphics
        Invoke GdipCreateBitmapFromGraphics, ImageWidth, ImageHeight, pGraphics, Addr pBitmap
        Invoke GdipGetImageGraphicsContext, pBitmap, Addr gdiHgraphics
        ......
        Invoke GdipDrawImageI, gdiHgraphics, GdiHbitmap, .....
        Invoke GdipDrawImageRectI, pGraphics, pBitmap, x, y, ImageWidth, ImageHeight


[NoCforMe]

If I had enough time, I would make an example for you
But I think you are missing some steps

Oh, that's for sure! So could you possibly explain in general terms the minimum steps I need to take to display an image? Just in conceptual terms, not actual code.

I'm going to read all the MSDN documentation on the subject, Very Soon Now^TM. Until then I can use all the help I can get.

@mabdelouahab: You the man! Yeah!

Just downloaded it and saw that it worked. Now I've got to study what you did there.

Thanks!

So I can see that the magic is simply using

Code: [Select]

Invoke GdipDrawImageRectI, gdiHgraphics, GdiHbitmap, X,Y,W,H
which lets me choose where the image draws, as well as the scaled size.

If I set X and Y to fixed values then the upper-left hand corner stays put. Great!

[NoCforMe]

Here's a finished app (well, testbed) that displays any JPEG image in its window. The image is sized to the window (which can be resized) within a 10-pixel border. Pretty much what I was aiming for.

Something I just noticed is that if you display a small image, the details become very soft when it gets blown up. Wonder if there are any parameters that can be tweaked to improve this behavior? The displayed images look pretty crappy. (Try it with a small JPG, say 50x50 or so.)

[hutch--]

Not really, a small image has far less data in it that a big one that is properly in focus. You are better off to use a larger image and tweak the JPG compression level to trade clarity for size.

[NoCforMe]

No. Yes, a small image will have less data, obviously, but when I view it in my graphics program (I use an old version of Paint Shop Pro), then I can see the pixels clearly when I blow it up, which is what I would expect to see. But the GDI+ display function smears the pixels into mush.

When you blow up any small image you should be able to see the individual pixels clearly. I've attached both images here, one from this testbed, the other from Paint Shop Pro. The difference in quality is obvious.

The smearing of pixels may be intentional on the part of the GDI+ designers, the thinking being that if you blow up an image you should not be able to see individual pixels. But I do want to see them. That's why I wonder if there are any variables that can be tweaked to change the rendering behavior. (Also, since Paint Shop Pro only scales its images in integral steps, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, etc., it may be easier for it to render the image exactly as-is, as opposed to the GDI+ renderer which can scale to any fractional value. It looks like they're doing some kind of interpolation on the image.

[hutch--]

Try enlarging you small image with StretchBlt and see if there is any difference. Many people botch GDI+ so you would not be alone here.
