1. Load a single picture and draw it to a window
2. Load a picture and use it as a bitmap
3. Create a drawhandle for multiple pictures
4. Create a drawhandle with a static palette
5. Rendering varying truecolor graphics realtime
1. Load a single picture and draw it to a Window
------------------------------------------------
APTR picture = NULL, psm = NULL, drawhandle = NULL;
initialization:
picture = LoadPicture(filename, TAG_DONE);
psm = CreatePenShareMap(TAG_DONE);
if (psm && picture)
{
if (AddPicture(psm, picture, TAG_DONE))
{
drawhandle = ObtainDrawHandle(psm, window->RPort,
screen->ViewPort.ColorMap, TAG_DONE);
}
DeletePenShareMap(psm); /* no longer needed */
}
if (drawhandle)
{
DrawPicture(drawhandle, picture, x, y, TAG_DONE);
}
notes:
You may remove the picture now using DeletePicture(), but do
not release the drawhandle as long as the picture is
visible. Before you release the drawhandle, clear the
RastPort where the picture is located.
closedown:
DeletePicture(picture);
ReleaseDrawHandle(drawhandle);
2. Load a picture and use it as a bitmap
----------------------------------------
You should prefer using BitMaps over DrawPicture(), when the
window is of type SIMPLE_REFRESH and the window contents may
need to get refreshed.
APTR picture = NULL, psm = NULL, drawhandle = NULL;
struct BitMap *bm = NULL;
initialization:
picture = LoadPicture(filename, TAG_DONE);
if (picture)
{
psm = CreatePenShareMap(TAG_DONE);
}
if (psm)
{
AddPicture(psm, picture, TAG_DONE);
drawhandle = ObtainDrawHandle(psm, window->RPort,
screen->ViewPort.ColorMap, TAG_DONE);
}
}
if (drawhandle)
{
bm = CreatePictureBitMap(drawhandle, picture, TAG_DONE);
}
DeletePicture(picture); /* no need to maintain these
DeletePenShareMap(psm); objects any longer */
draw / refresh:
if (bm)
{
BltBitMapRastPort(bm, srcx, srcy, window->RPort,
dstx, dsty, width, height, 0xc0);
}
closedown:
FreeBitMap(bm); /* graphics.library */
ReleaseDrawHandle(drawhandle);
3. Create a drawhandle for multiple pictures
--------------------------------------------
initialization:
picture1 = LoadPicture(filename1, TAG_DONE);
picture2 = LoadPicture(filename2, TAG_DONE);
picture3 = LoadPicture(filename3, TAG_DONE);
psm = CreatePenShareMap(TAG_DONE);
if (psm && picture1 && picture2 && picture3)
{
AddPicture(psm, picture1, TAG_DONE);
AddPicture(psm, picture2, TAG_DONE);
AddPicture(psm, picture3, TAG_DONE);
drawhandle = ObtainDrawHandle(psm, window->RPort,
screen->ViewPort.ColorMap, TAG_DONE);
}
}
DeletePenShareMap(psm);
etc.
4. Create a drawhandle with a static palette
--------------------------------------------
Typical application: WWW browser
A static palette is recommended if your application has no
idea what colors will appear in the imagery, or when their
contents may vary. Use static palettes preferrably on a
seperate screen.
initialization:
drawhandle = ObtainDrawHandle(NULL, window->RPort,
screen->ViewPort.ColorMap, TAG_DONE);
/* NULL = no pen-sharemap available - a static palette
for the whole RGB space will be allocated */
etc.
5. Render truecolor graphics realtime
-------------------------------------
Typical applications: Colorful realtime spectrum analyzer,
animation in a Workbench window, etc.
When your application needs to render varying truecolor
graphics, create a 'direct'-drawhandle:
APTR ddh;
ddh = CreateDirectDrawHandle(drawhandle, sourcewidth,
sourceheight, destwidth, destheight, NULL);
As you can see, a 'direct'-drawhandle is derived from an
already existing drawhandle. It allows to draw RGB data with
very low overhead:
DirectDrawTrueColor(ddh, rgbdata, x,y, TAG_DONE);
closedown:
DeleteDirectDrawHandle(ddh);
ReleaseDrawHandle(drawhandle);
etc.
