Detailed Description

Class representing an image file.

Remarks: The Image class usually holds uncompressed image data and is the only object that can be loaded in a texture. Image objects handle image data decoding themselves by the means of locating the correct Codec object for each data type.

: Typically, you would want to use an Image object to load a texture when extra processing needs to be done on an image before it is loaded or when you want to blit to an existing texture.

◆ loadDynamicImage() [1/2]

Image& Ogre::Image::loadDynamicImage	(	uchar *	data,
		uint32	width,
		uint32	height,
		uint32	depth,
		PixelFormat	format,
		bool	autoDelete = `false`,
		uint32	numFaces = `1`,
		uint32	numMipMaps = `0`
	)

Stores a pointer to raw data in memory.

The pixel format has to be specified.

Remarks: This method loads an image into memory held in the object. The pixel format will be either greyscale or RGB with an optional Alpha component. The type can be determined by calling getFormat().

Note

Whilst typically your image is likely to be a simple 2D image, you can define complex images including cube maps, volume maps, and images including custom mip levels. The layout of the internal memory should be:

face 0, mip 0 (top), width x height (x depth)
face 0, mip 1, width/2 x height/2 (x depth/2)
face 0, mip 2, width/4 x height/4 (x depth/4)
.. remaining mips for face 0 ..
face 1, mip 0 (top), width x height (x depth)</li
.. and so on.

Of course, you will never have multiple faces (cube map) and depth too.

Parameters

data	The data pointer
width	Width of image
height	Height of image
depth	Image Depth (in 3d images, numbers of layers, otherwise 1)
format	Pixel Format
autoDelete	If memory associated with this buffer is to be destroyed with the Image object. Note: it's important that if you set this option to true, that you allocated the memory using OGRE_ALLOC_T with a category of MEMCATEGORY_GENERAL to ensure the freeing of memory matches up.
numFaces	The number of faces the image data has inside (6 for cubemaps, 1 otherwise)
numMipMaps	The number of mipmaps the image data has inside

Note: The memory associated with this buffer is NOT destroyed with the Image object, unless autoDelete is set to true.

Remarks: The size of the buffer must be numFaces * PixelUtil::getMemorySize(width, height, depth, format)

◆ loadDynamicImage() [2/2]

Image& Ogre::Image::loadDynamicImage	(	uchar *	data,
		uint32	width,
		uint32	height,
		PixelFormat	format
	)

inline

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

◆ loadRawData() [1/2]

Image& Ogre::Image::loadRawData	(	const DataStreamPtr &	stream,
		uint32	width,
		uint32	height,
		uint32	depth,
		PixelFormat	format,
		uint32	numFaces = `1`,
		uint32	numMipMaps = `0`
	)

Loads raw data from a stream.

See the function loadDynamicImage for a description of the parameters.

Remarks: The size of the buffer must be numFaces * PixelUtil::getMemorySize(width, height, depth, format)

Note

Whilst typically your image is likely to be a simple 2D image, you can define complex images including cube maps and images including custom mip levels. The layout of the internal memory should be:

face 0, mip 0 (top), width x height (x depth)
face 0, mip 1, width/2 x height/2 (x depth/2)
face 0, mip 2, width/4 x height/4 (x depth/4)
.. remaining mips for face 0 ..
face 1, mip 0 (top), width x height (x depth)</li
.. and so on.

Of course, you will never have multiple faces (cube map) and depth too.

◆ loadRawData() [2/2]

Image& Ogre::Image::loadRawData	(	const DataStreamPtr &	stream,
		uint32	width,
		uint32	height,
		PixelFormat	format
	)

inline

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

◆ load() [1/2]

Image& Ogre::Image::load	(	const String &	filename,
		const String &	groupName
	)

Loads an image file.

Remarks: This method loads an image into memory. Any format for which an associated ImageCodec is registered can be loaded. This can include complex formats like DDS with embedded custom mipmaps, cube faces and volume textures. The type can be determined by calling getFormat().

Parameters

filename	Name of an image file to load.
groupName	Name of the resource group to search for the image

Note: The memory associated with this buffer is destroyed with the Image object.

◆ load() [2/2]

Image& Ogre::Image::load	(	const DataStreamPtr &	stream,
		const String &	type = `BLANKSTRING`
	)

Loads an image file from a stream.

Remarks: This method works in the same way as the filename-based load method except it loads the image from a DataStream object. This DataStream is expected to contain the encoded data as it would be held in a file. Any format for which an associated ImageCodec is registered can be loaded. This can include complex formats like DDS with embedded custom mipmaps, cube faces and volume textures. The type can be determined by calling getFormat().

Parameters

stream	The source data.
type	The type of the image. Used to decide what decompression codec to use. Can be left blank if the stream data includes a header to identify the data.

See also: Image::load( const String& filename )

	)

Utility method to combine 2 separate images into this one, with the first image source supplying the RGB channels, and the second image supplying the alpha channel (as luminance or separate alpha).

Parameters

format	The destination format

Parameters

rgbStream	Stream of image supplying the RGB channels (any alpha is ignored)
alphaStream	Stream of image supplying the alpha channel. If a luminance image the single channel is used directly, if an RGB image then the values are converted to greyscale.
format	The destination format
rgbType	The type of the RGB image. Used to decide what decompression codec to use. Can be left blank if the stream data includes a header to identify the data.

		const Image &	alpha,
		PixelFormat	format = `PF_BYTE_RGBA`
	)

◆ save()

void Ogre::Image::save ( const String & filename )

Remarks: Saving and loading are implemented by back end (sometimes third party) codecs. Implemented saving functionality is more limited than loading in some cases.

Volumetric support is currently limited to DDS files.
