Una libreria grafica per la creazione veloce di immagini PNG o JPEG.

GD è una libreria grafica. Permette di scrivere rapidamente codice per disegnare immagini complete con linee, archi, testo, svariati colori, copia-incolla da altre immagini e riempimenti. Permette di salvare il risultato in un file PNG. Questo è particolarmente utile per le applicazioni per il web, dove PNG è uno dei formati immagine attualmente più accettati dalla maggior parte dei browser. Notare che gd non è un programma per disegnare.

GD graphics library v. 1.3 (EMX, 8/3/1999, Michael Reinsch) Readme/What's new
GD gif-manipulating library v1.3 compiled with emx 0.9d gd is a graphics library. It allows your code to quickly draw images complete with lines, arcs, text, multiple colors, cut and paste from other images, and flood fills, and write out the result as a .GIF file. This is particularly useful in World Wide Web applications, where .GIF is the format used for inline images.

It allows your code to quickly draw images complete with lines, arcs, text, multiple colors, cut and paste from other images, and flood fills, and write out the result as a .GIF file. This is particularly useful in World Wide Web applications, where .GIF is the format used for inline images. gd is not a paint program. If you are looking for a paint program, you are looking in the wrong place. If you are not a programmer, you are looking in the wrong place. gd does not provide for every possible desirable graphics operation. It is not necessary or desirable for gd to become a kitchen-sink graphics package, but version 1.3 incorporates most of the commonly requested features for an 8-bit 2D package. Support for scalable fonts, and truecolor images, JPEG and PNG is planned for version 2.0. Version 1.3 was released to correct longstanding bugs and provide an LZW-free GIF compression routine. What if I want to use another programming language? Perl gd can also be used from Perl, courtesy of Lincoln Stein's GD.pm library, which uses gd as the basis for a set of Perl 5.x classes. GD.pm is based on gd 1.1.1 but gd 1.2 should be compatible. Any Language There are, at the moment, at least three simple interpreters that perform gd operations. You can output the desired commands to a simple text file from whatever scripting language you prefer to use, then invoke the interpreter. These packages are based on gd 1.2 as of this writing but should be compatible with gd 1.3 with minimal tweaking. * tgd, by Bradley K. Sherman * fly, by Martin Gleeson What's new in version 1.3? Version 1.3 features the following changes: Non-LZW-based GIF compression code Version 1.3 contains GIF compression code that uses simple Run Length Encoding instead of LZW compression, while still retaining compatibility with normal LZW-based GIF decoders (your browser will still like your GIFs). LZW compression is patented by Unisys. This is why there have been no new versions of gd for a long time. THANKS to Hutchison Avenue Software Corporation for contributing this code. THE NEW CODE PRODUCES LARGER GIFS AND IS NOT WELL SUITED TO PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGES. THIS IS A LEGAL ISSUE. IT IS NOT A QUESTION OF TECHNICAL SKILL. PLEASE DON'T COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SIZE OF GIF OUTPUT. THANKS! 8-bit fonts, and 8-bit font support This improves support for European languages. Thanks are due to Honza Pazdziora and also to Jan Pazdziora . Also see the provided bdftogd Perl script if you wish to convert fixed-width X11 fonts to gd fonts. 16-bit font support (no fonts provided) Although no such fonts are provided in the distribution, fonts containing more than 256 characters should work if the gdImageString16 and gdImageStringUp16 routines are used. Improvements to the "webgif" example/utility The "webgif" utility is now a slightly more useful application. Thanks to Brian Dowling for this code. Corrections to the color resolution field of GIF output Thanks to Bruno Aureli. Fixed polygon fills A one-line patch for the infamous polygon fill bug, courtesy of Jim Mason. I believe this fix is sufficient. However, if you find a situation where polygon fills still fail to behave properly, please send code that demonstrates the problem, and a fix if you have one. Verifying the fix is important. Row-major, not column-major Internally, gd now represents the array of pixels as an array of rows of pixels, rather than an array of columns of pixels. This improves the performance of compression and decompression routines slightly, because horizontally adjacent pixels are now next to each other in memory. This should not affect properly written gd applications, but applications that directly manipulate the pixels array will require changes. What else do I need to use gd? To use gd, you will need an ANSI C compiler. All popular Windows 95 and NT C compilers are ANSI C compliant. Any full-ANSI-standard C compiler should be adequate. The cc compiler released with SunOS 4.1.3 is not an ANSI C compiler. Most Unix users who do not already have gcc should get it. gcc is free, ANSI compliant and a de facto industry standard. Ask your ISP why it is missing. You will also want a GIF viewer, if you do not already have one for your system, since you will need a good way to check the results of your work. Any web browser will work, but you might be happier with a package like Lview Pro for Windows or xv for X. There are GIF viewers available for every graphics-capable computer out there, so consult newsgroups relevant to your particular system. How do I get gd? By HTTP * Gzipped Tar File (Unix) * .ZIP File (Windows) By FTP * Gzipped Tar File (Unix) * .ZIP File (Windows) How do I build gd? In order to build gd, you must first unpack the archive you have downloaded. If you are not familiar with tar and gunzip (Unix) or ZIP (Windows), please consult with an experienced user of your system. Sorry, we cannot answer questions about basic Internet skills. Unpacking the archive will produce a directory called "gd1.3". For Unix cd to the gd1.3 directory and examine the Makefile, which you will probably need to change slightly depending on your operating system and your needs. For Windows, Mac, Et Cetera Create a project using your favorite programming environment. Copy all of the gd files to the project directory. Add gd.c to your project. Add other source files as appropriate. Learning the basic skills of creating projects with your chosen C environment is up to you. Now, to build the demonstration program, just type "make gddemo" if you are working in a command-line environment, or build a project that includes gddemo.c if you are using a graphical environment. If all goes well, the program "gddemo" will be compiled and linked without incident. Depending on your system you may need to edit the Makefile. Understanding the basic techniques of compiling and linking programs on your system is up to you. You have now built a demonstration program which shows off the capabilities of gd. To see it in action, type "gddemo". gddemo should execute without incident, creating the file demoout.gif. (Note there is also a file named demoin.gif, which is provided in the package as part of the demonstration.) Display demoout.gif in your GIF viewer. The image should be 128x128 pixels and should contain an image of the space shuttle with quite a lot of graphical elements drawn on top of it. (If you are missing the demoin.gif file, the other items should appear anyway.) Look at demoin.gif to see the original space shuttle image which was scaled and copied into the output image. gd basics: using gd in your program gd lets you create GIF images on the fly. To use gd in your program, include the file gd.h, and link with the libgd.a library produced by "make libgd.a", under Unix. Under other operating systems you will add gd.c to your own project. If you want to use the provided fonts, include gdfontt.h, gdfonts.h, gdfontmb.h, gdfontl.h and/or gdfontg.h. If you are not using the provided Makefile and/or a library-based approach, be sure to include the source modules as well in your project. (They may be too large for 16-bit memory models, that is, 16-bit DOS and Windows.) Here is a short example program. (For a more advanced example, see gddemo.c, included in the distribution. gddemo.c is NOT the same program; it demonstrates additional features!) /* Bring in gd library functions */ #include "gd.h" /* Bring in standard I/O so we can output the GIF to a file */ #include <stdio.h> int main() { /* Declare the image */ gdImagePtr im; /* Declare an output file */ FILE *out; /* Declare color indexes */ int black; int white; /* Allocate the image: 64 pixels across by 64 pixels tall */ im = gdImageCreate(64, 64); /* Allocate the color black (red, green and blue all minimum). Since this is the first color in a new image, it will be the background color. */ black = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 0, 0, 0); /* Allocate the color white (red, green and blue all maximum). */ white = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 255, 255, 255); /* Draw a line from the upper left to the lower right, using white color index. */ gdImageLine(im, 0, 0, 63, 63, white); /* Open a file for writing. "wb" means "write binary", important under MSDOS, harmless under Unix. */ out = fopen("test.gif", "wb"); /* Output the image to the disk file. */ gdImageGif(im, out); /* Close the file. */ fclose(out); /* Destroy the image in memory. */ gdImageDestroy(im); } When executed, this program creates an image, allocates two colors (the first color allocated becomes the background color), draws a diagonal line (note that 0, 0 is the upper left corner), writes the image to a GIF file, and destroys the image. The above example program should give you an idea of how the package works. gd provides many additional functions, which are listed in the following reference chapters, complete with code snippets demonstrating each. There is also an alphabetical index. Webgif: a more powerful gd example Webgif is a simple utility program to manipulate GIFs from the command line. It is written for Unix and similar command-line systems, but should be easily adapted for other environments. Webgif allows you to set transparency and interlacing and output interesting information about the GIF in question. webgif.c is provided in the distribution. Unix users can simply type "make webgif" to compile the program. Type "webgif" with no arguments to see the available options. Function and type reference * Types * Image creation, destruction, loading and saving * Drawing, styling, brushing, tiling and filling functions * Query functions (not color-related) * Font and text-handling functions * Color handling functions * Copying and resizing functions * Miscellaneous Functions * Constants Types gdImage(TYPE) The data structure in which gd stores images. gdImageCreate returns a pointer to this type, and the other functions expect to receive a pointer to this type as their first argument. You may read the members sx (size on X axis), sy (size on Y axis), colorsTotal (total colors), red (red component of colors; an array of 256 integers between 0 and 255), green (green component of colors, as above), blue (blue component of colors, as above), and transparent (index of transparent color, -1 if none); please do so using the macros provided. Do NOT set the members directly from your code; use the functions provided. typedef struct { unsigned char ** pixels; int sx; int sy; int colorsTotal; int red[gdMaxColors]; int green[gdMaxColors]; int blue[gdMaxColors]; int open[gdMaxColors]; int transparent; } gdImage; gdImagePtr (TYPE) A pointer to an image structure. gdImageCreate returns this type, and the other functions expect it as the first argument. gdFont (TYPE) A font structure. Used to declare the characteristics of a font. Plese see the files gdfontl.c and gdfontl.h for an example of the proper declaration of this structure. You can provide your own font data by providing such a structure and the associated pixel array. You can determine the width and height of a single character in a font by examining the w and h members of the structure. If you will not be creating your own fonts, you will not need to concern yourself with the rest of the components of this structure. typedef struct { /* # of characters in font */ int nchars; /* First character is numbered... (usually 32 = space) */ int offset; /* Character width and height */ int w; int h; /* Font data; array of characters, one row after another. Easily included in code, also easily loaded from data files. */ char *data; } gdFont; gdFontPtr (TYPE) A pointer to a font structure. Text-output functions expect these as their second argument, following the gdImagePtr argument. Two such pointers are declared in the provided include files gdfonts.h and gdfontl.h. gdPoint (TYPE) Represents a point in the coordinate space of the image; used by gdImagePolygon and gdImageFilledPolygon. typedef struct { int x, y; } gdPoint, *gdPointPtr; gdPointPtr (TYPE) A pointer to a gdPoint structure; passed as an argument to gdImagePolygon and gdImageFilledPolygon. Image creation, destruction, loading and saving gdImageCreate(sx, sy) (FUNCTION) gdImageCreate is called to create images. Invoke gdImageCreate with the x and y dimensions of the desired image. gdImageCreate returns a gdImagePtr to the new image, or NULL if unable to allocate the image. The image must eventually be destroyed using gdImageDestroy(). ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; im = gdImageCreate(64, 64); /* ... Use the image ... */ gdImageDestroy(im); gdImageCreateFromGif(FILE *in) (FUNCTION) gdImageCreateFromGif is called to load images from GIF format files. Invoke gdImageCreateFromGif with an already opened pointer to a file containing the desired image. gdImageCreateFromGif returns a gdImagePtr to the new image, or NULL if unable to load the image (most often because the file is corrupt or does not contain a GIF image). gdImageCreateFromGif does not close the file. You can inspect the sx and sy members of the image to determine its size. The image must eventually be destroyed using gdImageDestroy(). gdImagePtr im; ... inside a function ... FILE *in; in = fopen("mygif.gif", "rb"); im = gdImageCreateFromGif(in); fclose(in); /* ... Use the image ... */ gdImageDestroy(im); gdImageCreateFromGd(FILE *in) (FUNCTION) gdImageCreateFromGd is called to load images from gd format files. Invoke gdImageCreateFromGd with an already opened pointer to a file containing the desired image in the gd file format, which is specific to gd and intended for very fast loading. (It is not intended for compression; for compression, use GIF.) gdImageCreateFromGd returns a gdImagePtr to the new image, or NULL if unable to load the image (most often because the file is corrupt or does not contain a gd format image). gdImageCreateFromGd does not close the file. You can inspect the sx and sy members of the image to determine its size. The image must eventually be destroyed using gdImageDestroy(). ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; FILE *in; in = fopen("mygd.gd", "rb"); im = gdImageCreateFromGd(in); fclose(in); /* ... Use the image ... */ gdImageDestroy(im); gdImageCreateFromXbm(FILE *in) (FUNCTION) gdImageCreateFromXbm is called to load images from X bitmap format files. Invoke gdImageCreateFromXbm with an already opened pointer to a file containing the desired image. gdImageCreateFromXbm returns a gdImagePtr to the new image, or NULL if unable to load the image (most often because the file is corrupt or does not contain an X bitmap format image). gdImageCreateFromXbm does not close the file. You can inspect the sx and sy members of the image to determine its size. The image must eventually be destroyed using gdImageDestroy(). ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; FILE *in; in = fopen("myxbm.xbm", "rb"); im = gdImageCreateFromXbm(in); fclose(in); /* ... Use the image ... */ gdImageDestroy(im); gdImageDestroy(gdImagePtr im) (FUNCTION) gdImageDestroy is used to free the memory associated with an image. It is important to invoke gdImageDestroy before exiting your program or assigning a new image to a gdImagePtr variable. ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; im = gdImageCreate(10, 10); /* ... Use the image ... */ /* Now destroy it */ gdImageDestroy(im); void gdImageGif(gdImagePtr im, FILE *out) (FUNCTION) gdImageGif outputs the specified image to the specified file in GIF format. The file must be open for writing. Under MSDOS, it is important to use "wb" as opposed to simply "w" as the mode when opening the file, and under Unix there is no penalty for doing so. gdImageGif does not close the file; your code must do so. ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; int black, white; FILE *out; /* Create the image */ im = gdImageCreate(100, 100); /* Allocate background */ white = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 255, 255, 255); /* Allocate drawing color */ black = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 0, 0, 0); /* Draw rectangle */ gdImageRectangle(im, 0, 0, 99, 99, black); /* Open output file in binary mode */ out = fopen("rect.gif", "wb"); /* Write GIF */ gdImageGif(im, out); /* Close file */ fclose(out); /* Destroy image */ gdImageDestroy(im); void gdImageGd(gdImagePtr im, FILE *out) (FUNCTION) gdImageGd outputs the specified image to the specified file in the gd image format. The file must be open for writing. Under MSDOS, it is important to use "wb" as opposed to simply "w" as the mode when opening the file, and under Unix there is no penalty for doing so. gdImageGif does not close the file; your code must do so. The gd image format is intended for fast reads and writes of images your program will need frequently to build other images. It is not a compressed format, and is not intended for general use. ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; int black, white; FILE *out; /* Create the image */ im = gdImageCreate(100, 100); /* Allocate background */ white = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 255, 255, 255); /* Allocate drawing color */ black = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 0, 0, 0); /* Draw rectangle */ gdImageRectangle(im, 0, 0, 99, 99, black); /* Open output file in binary mode */ out = fopen("rect.gd", "wb"); /* Write gd format file */ gdImageGd(im, out); /* Close file */ fclose(out); /* Destroy image */ gdImageDestroy(im); Drawing Functions void gdImageSetPixel(gdImagePtr im, int x, int y, int color) (FUNCTION) gdImageSetPixel sets a pixel to a particular color index. Always use this function or one of the other drawing functions to access pixels; do not access the pixels of the gdImage structure directly. ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; int black; int white; im = gdImageCreate(100, 100); /* Background color (first allocated) */ black = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 0, 0, 0); /* Allocate the color white (red, green and blue all maximum). */ white = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 255, 255, 255); /* Set a pixel near the center. */ gdImageSetPixel(im, 50, 50, white); /* ... Do something with the image, such as saving it to a file... */ /* Destroy it */ gdImageDestroy(im); void gdImageLine(gdImagePtr im, int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2, int color) (FUNCTION) gdImageLine is used to draw a line between two endpoints (x1,y1 and x2, y2). The line is drawn using the color index specified. Note that the color index can be an actual color returned by gdImageColorAllocate or one of gdStyled, gdBrushed or gdStyledBrushed. ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; int black; int white; im = gdImageCreate(100, 100); /* Background color (first allocated) */ black = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 0, 0, 0); /* Allocate the color white (red, green and blue all maximum). */ white = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 255, 255, 255); /* Draw a line from the upper left corner to the lower right corner. */ gdImageLine(im, 0, 0, 99, 99, white); /* ... Do something with the image, such as saving it to a file... */ /* Destroy it */ gdImageDestroy(im); void gdImageDashedLine(gdImagePtr im, int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2, int color) (FUNCTION) gdImageDashedLine is provided solely for backwards compatibility with gd 1.0. New programs should draw dashed lines using the normal gdImageLine function and the new gdImageSetStyle function. gdImageDashedLine is used to draw a dashed line between two endpoints (x1,y1 and x2, y2). The line is drawn using the color index specified. The portions of the line that are not drawn are left transparent so the background is visible. ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; int black; int white; im = gdImageCreate(100, 100); /* Background color (first allocated) */ black = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 0, 0, 0); /* Allocate the color white (red, green and blue all maximum). */ white = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 255, 255, 255); /* Draw a dashed line from the upper left corner to the lower right corner. */ gdImageDashedLine(im, 0, 0, 99, 99); /* ... Do something with the image, such as saving it to a file... */ /* Destroy it */ gdImageDestroy(im); void gdImagePolygon(gdImagePtr im, gdPointPtr points, int pointsTotal, int color) (FUNCTION) gdImagePolygon is used to draw a polygon with the verticies (at least 3) specified, using the color index specified. See also gdImageFilledPolygon. ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; int black; int white; /* Points of polygon */ gdPoint points[3]; im = gdImageCreate(100, 100); /* Background color (first allocated) */ black = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 0, 0, 0); /* Allocate the color white (red, green and blue all maximum). */ white = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 255, 255, 255); /* Draw a triangle. */ points[0].x = 50; points[0].y = 0; points[1].x = 99; points[1].y = 99; points[2].x = 0; points[2].y = 99; gdImagePolygon(im, points, 3, white); /* ... Do something with the image, such as saving it to a file... */ /* Destroy it */ gdImageDestroy(im); void gdImageRectangle(gdImagePtr im, int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2, int color) (FUNCTION) gdImageRectangle is used to draw a rectangle with the two corners (upper left first, then lower right) specified, using the color index specified. ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; int black; int white; im = gdImageCreate(100, 100); /* Background color (first allocated) */ black = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 0, 0, 0); /* Allocate the color white (red, green and blue all maximum). */ white = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 255, 255, 255); /* Draw a rectangle occupying the central area. */ gdImageRectangle(im, 25, 25, 74, 74, white); /* ...

For a way of flooding an area defined by the color of the starting point, see gdImageFill. The border color cannot be a special color such as gdTiled; it must be a proper solid color. The fill color can be, however. Note that gdImageFillToBorder is recursive. It is not the most naive implementation possible, and the implementation is expected to improve, but there will always be degenerate cases in which the stack can become very deep. This can be a problem in MSDOS and MS Windows environments.

The fill color can be gdTiled, resulting in a tile fill using another image as the tile. However, the tile image cannot be transparent. If the image you wish to fill with has a transparent color index, call gdImageTransparent on the tile image and set the transparent color index to -1 to turn off its transparency.

Just as a paintbrush is not a single point, a brush image need not be a single pixel. Any gd image can be used as a brush, and by setting the transparent color index of the brush image with gdImageColorTransparent, a brush of any shape can be created. All line-drawing functions, such as gdImageLine and gdImagePolygon, will use the current brush if the special "color" gdBrushed or gdStyledBrushed is used when calling them. gdImageSetBrush is used to specify the brush to be used in a particular image. You can set any image to be the brush. If the brush image does not have the same color map as the first image, any colors missing from the first image will be allocated. If not enough colors can be allocated, the closest colors already available will be used. This allows arbitrary GIFs to be used as brush images. It also means, however, that you should not set a brush unless you will actually use it; if you set a rapid succession of different brush images, you can quickly fill your color map, and the results will not be optimal. You need not take any special action when you are finished with a brush. As for any other image, if you will not be using the brush image for any further purpose, you should call gdImageDestroy. You must not use the color gdBrushed if the current brush has been destroyed; you can of course set a new brush to replace it. ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im, brush; FILE *in; int black; im = gdImageCreate(100, 100); /* Open the brush GIF.

Any gd image can be used as a tile, and by setting the transparent color index of the tile image with gdImageColorTransparent, a tile that allows certain parts of the underlying area to shine through can be created. All region-filling functions, such as gdImageFill and gdImageFilledPolygon, will use the current tile if the special "color" gdTiled is used when calling them. gdImageSetTile is used to specify the tile to be used in a particular image. You can set any image to be the tile. If the tile image does not have the same color map as the first image, any colors missing from the first image will be allocated. If not enough colors can be allocated, the closest colors already available will be used. This allows arbitrary GIFs to be used as tile images. It also means, however, that you should not set a tile unless you will actually use it; if you set a rapid succession of different tile images, you can quickly fill your color map, and the results will not be optimal. You need not take any special action when you are finished with a tile. As for any other image, if you will not be using the tile image for any further purpose, you should call gdImageDestroy.

Do something with the image, such as saving it to a file... */ /* Destroy it */ gdImageDestroy(im); /* Destroy the tile image */ gdImageDestroy(tile); void gdImageSetStyle(gdImagePtr im, int *style, int styleLength) (FUNCTION) It is often desirable to draw dashed lines, dotted lines, and other variations on a broken line. gdImageSetStyle can be used to set any desired series of colors, including a special color that leaves the background intact, to be repeated during the drawing of a line. To use gdImageSetStyle, create an array of integers and assign them the desired series of color values to be repeated. You can assign the special color value gdTransparent to indicate that the existing color should be left unchanged for that particular pixel (allowing a dashed line to be attractively drawn over an existing image). Then, to draw a line using the style, use the normal gdImageLine function with the special color value gdStyled. As of version 1.1.1, the style array is copied when you set the style, so you need not be concerned with keeping the array around indefinitely. This should not break existing code that assumes styles are not copied. You can also combine styles and brushes to draw the brush image at intervals instead of in a continuous stroke. When creating a style for use with a brush, the style values are interpreted differently: zero (0) indicates pixels at which the brush should not be drawn, while one (1) indicates pixels at which the brush should be drawn. To draw a styled, brushed line, you must use the special color value gdStyledBrushed. For an example of this feature in use, see gddemo.c (provided in the distribution). gdImagePtr im; int styleDotted[2], styleDashed[6]; FILE *in; int black; int red; im = gdImageCreate(100, 100); /* Background color (first allocated) */ black = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 0, 0, 0); red = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 255, 0, 0); /* Set up dotted style.

Color-handling functions int gdImageColorAllocate(gdImagePtr im, int r, int g, int b) (FUNCTION) gdImageColorAllocate finds the first available color index in the image specified, sets its RGB values to those requested (255 is the maximum for each), and returns the index of the new color table entry. When creating a new image, the first time you invoke this function, you are setting the background color for that image. In the event that all gdMaxColors colors (256) have already been allocated, gdImageColorAllocate will return -1 to indicate failure. (This is not uncommon when working with existing GIF files that already use 256 colors.)

(Closeness is determined by Euclidian distance, which is used to determine the distance in three-dimensional color space between colors.) If no colors have yet been allocated in the image, gdImageColorClosest returns -1. This function is most useful as a backup method for choosing a drawing color when an image already contains gdMaxColors (256) colors and no more can be allocated.

If there is no transparent color, gdImageGetTransparent returns -1. Use this macro to obtain this information; do not access the structure directly. void gdImageColorDeallocate(gdImagePtr im, int color) (FUNCTION) gdImageColorDeallocate marks the specified color as being available for reuse. It does not attempt to determine whether the color index is still in use in the image. After a call to this function, the next call to gdImageColorAllocate for the same image will set new RGB values for that color index, changing the color of any pixels which have that index as a result. If multiple calls to gdImageColorDeallocate are made consecutively, the lowest-numbered index among them will be reused by the next gdImageColorAllocate call. ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; int red, blue; in = fopen("photo.gif", "rb"); im = gdImageCreateFromGif(in); fclose(in); /* Look for red in the color table. */ red = gdImageColorExact(im, 255, 0, 0); /* If red is present... */ if (red != (-1)) { /* Deallocate it. */ gdImageColorDeallocate(im, red); /* Allocate blue, reusing slot in table. Existing red pixels will change color. */ blue = gdImageColorAllocate(im, 0, 0, 255); } /* ... Do something with the image, such as saving it to a file... */ /* Destroy it */ gdImageDestroy(im); void gdImageColorTransparent(gdImagePtr im, int color) (FUNCTION) gdImageColorTransparent sets the transparent color index for the specified image to the specified index. To indicate that there should be no transparent color, invoke gdImageColorTransparent with a color index of -1. The color index used should be an index allocated by gdImageColorAllocate, whether explicitly invoked by your code or implicitly invoked by loading an image. In order to ensure that your image has a reasonable appearance when viewed by users who do not have transparent background capabilities, be sure to give reasonable RGB values to the color you allocate for use as a transparent color, even though it will be transparent on systems that support transparency. ... inside a function ... gdImagePtr im; int black; FILE *in, *out; in = fopen("photo.gif", "rb"); im = gdImageCreateFromGif(in); fclose(in); /* Look for black in the color table and make it transparent. */ black = gdImageColorExact(im, 0, 0, 0); /* If black is present... */ if (black != (-1)) { /* Make it transparent */ gdImageColorTransparent(im, black); } /* Save the newly-transparent image back to the file */ out = fopen("photo.gif", "wb"); gdImageGif(im, out); fclose(out); /* Destroy it */ gdImageDestroy(im); Copying and resizing functions void gdImageCopy(gdImagePtr dst, gdImagePtr src, int dstX, int dstY, int srcX, int srcY, int w, int h) (FUNCTION) gdImageCopy is used to copy a rectangular portion of one image to another image. (For a way of stretching or shrinking the image in the process, see gdImageCopyResized.) The dst argument is the destination image to which the region will be copied. The src argument is the source image from which the region is copied. The dstX and dstY arguments specify the point in the destination image to which the region will be copied. The srcX and srcY arguments specify the upper left corner of the region in the source image. The w and h arguments specify the width and height of the region. When you copy a region from one location in an image to another location in the same image, gdImageCopy will perform as expected unless the regions overlap, in which case the result is unpredictable. Important note on copying between images: since different images do not necessarily have the same color tables, pixels are not simply set to the same color index values to copy them. gdImageCopy will attempt to find an identical RGB value in the destination image for each pixel in the copied portion of the source image by invoking gdImageColorExact. If such a value is not found, gdImageCopy will attempt to allocate colors as needed using gdImageColorAllocate. If both of these methods fail, gdImageCopy will invoke gdImageColorClosest to find the color in the destination image which most closely approximates the color of the pixel being copied. ... Inside a function ... gdImagePtr im_in; gdImagePtr im_out; int x, y; FILE *in; FILE *out; /* Load a small gif to tile the larger one with */ in = fopen("small.gif", "rb"); im_in = gdImageCreateFromGif(in); fclose(in); /* Make the output image four times as large on both axes */ im_out = gdImageCreate(im_in->sx * 4, im_in->sy * 4); /* Now tile the larger image using the smaller one */ for (y = 0; (y < 4); y++) { for (x = 0; (x < 4); x++) { gdImageCopy(im_out, im_in, x * im_in->sx, y * im_in->sy, 0, 0, im_in->sx, im_in->sy); } } out = fopen("tiled.gif", "wb"); gdImageGif(im_out, out); fclose(out); gdImageDestroy(im_in); gdImageDestroy(im_out); void gdImageCopyResized(gdImagePtr dst, gdImagePtr src, int dstX, int dstY, int srcX, int srcY, int destW, int destH, int srcW, int srcH) (FUNCTION) gdImageCopyResized is used to copy a rectangular portion of one image to another image. The X and Y dimensions of the original region and the destination region can vary, resulting in stretching or shrinking of the region as appropriate. (For a simpler version of this function which does not deal with resizing, see gdImageCopy.) The dst argument is the destination image to which the region will be copied. The src argument is the source image from which the region is copied. The dstX and dstY arguments specify the point in the destination image to which the region will be copied. The srcX and srcY arguments specify the upper left corner of the region in the source image. The dstW and dstH arguments specify the width and height of the destination region. The srcW and srcH arguments specify the width and height of the source region and can differ from the destination size, allowing a region to be scaled during the copying process. When you copy a region from one location in an image to another location in the same image, gdImageCopy will perform as expected unless the regions overlap, in which case the result is unpredictable. If this presents a problem, create a scratch image in which to keep intermediate results. Important note on copying between images: since images do not necessarily have the same color tables, pixels are not simply set to the same color index values to copy them. gdImageCopy will attempt to find an identical RGB value in the destination image for each pixel in the copied portion of the source image by invoking gdImageColorExact. If such a value is not found, gdImageCopy will attempt to allocate colors as needed using gdImageColorAllocate. If both of these methods fail, gdImageCopy will invoke gdImageColorClosest to find the color in the destination image which most closely approximates the color of the pixel being copied. ... Inside a function ... gdImagePtr im_in; gdImagePtr im_out; int x, y; FILE *in; FILE *out; /* Load a small gif to expand in the larger one */ in = fopen("small.gif", "rb"); im_in = gdImageCreateFromGif(in); fclose(in); /* Make the output image four times as large on both axes */ im_out = gdImageCreate(im_in->sx * 4, im_in->sy * 4); /* Now copy the smaller image, but four times larger */ gdImageCopyResized(im_out, im_in, 0, 0, 0, 0, im_out->sx, im_out->sy, im_in->sx, im_in->sy); out = fopen("large.gif", "wb"); gdImageGif(im_out, out); fclose(out); gdImageDestroy(im_in); gdImageDestroy(im_out); Miscellaneous Functions gdImageInterlace(gdImagePtr im, int interlace) (FUNCTION) gdImageInterlace is used to determine whether an image should be stored in a linear fashion, in which lines will appear on the display from first to last, or in an interlaced fashion, in which the image will "fade in" over several passes. By default, images are not interlaced. A nonzero value for the interlace argument turns on interlace; a zero value turns it off. Note that interlace has no effect on other functions, and has no meaning unless you save the image in GIF format; the gd and xbm formats do not support interlace. When a GIF is loaded with gdImageCreateFromGif , interlace will be set according to the setting in the GIF file. Note that many GIF viewers and web browsers do not support interlace. However, the interlaced GIF should still display; it will simply appear all at once, just as other images do. gdImagePtr im; FILE *out; /* ... Create or load the image... */ /* Now turn on interlace */ gdImageInterlace(im, 1); /* And open an output file */ out = fopen("test.gif", "wb"); /* And save the image */ gdImageGif(im, out); fclose(out); gdImageDestroy(im); Constants gdBrushed (CONSTANT) Used in place of a color when invoking a line-drawing function such as gdImageLine or gdImageRectangle. When gdBrushed is used as the color, the brush image set with gdImageSetBrush is drawn in place of each pixel of the line (the brush is usually larger than one pixel, creating the effect of a wide paintbrush). See also gdStyledBrushed for a way to draw broken lines with a series of distinct copies of an image. gdMaxColors(CONSTANT) The constant 256. This is the maximum number of colors in a GIF file according to the GIF standard, and is also the maximum number of colors in a gd image. gdStyled (CONSTANT) Used in place of a color when invoking a line-drawing function such as gdImageLine or gdImageRectangle. When gdStyled is used as the color, the colors of the pixels are drawn successively from the style that has been set with gdImageSetStyle. If the color of a pixel is equal to gdTransparent, that pixel is not altered. (This mechanism is completely unrelated to the "transparent color" of the image itself; see gdImageColorTransparent gdImageColorTransparent for that mechanism.) See also gdStyledBrushed. gdStyledBrushed (CONSTANT) Used in place of a color when invoking a line-drawing function such as gdImageLine or gdImageRectangle. When gdStyledBrushed is used as the color, the brush image set with gdImageSetBrush is drawn at each pixel of the line, providing that the style set with gdImageSetStyle contains a nonzero value (OR gdTransparent, which does not equal zero but is supported for consistency) for the current pixel. (Pixels are drawn successively from the style as the line is drawn, returning to the beginning when the available pixels in the style are exhausted.) Note that this differs from the behavior of gdStyled, in which the values in the style are used as actual pixel colors, except for gdTransparent. gdDashSize (CONSTANT) The length of a dash in a dashed line. Defined to be 4 for backwards compatibility with programs that use gdImageDashedLine. New programs should use gdImageSetStyle and call the standard gdImageLine function with the special "color" gdStyled or gdStyledBrushed. gdTiled (CONSTANT) Used in place of a normal color in gdImageFilledRectangle, gdImageFilledPolygon, gdImageFill, and gdImageFillToBorder. gdTiled selects a pixel from the tile image set with gdImageSetTile in such a way as to ensure that the filled area will be tiled with copies of the tile image. See the discussions of gdImageFill and gdImageFillToBorder for special restrictions regarding those functions. gdTransparent (CONSTANT) Used in place of a normal color in a style to be set with gdImageSetStyle. gdTransparent is not the transparent color index of the image; for that functionality please see gdImageColorTransparent. About the additional .gd image file format In addition to reading and writing the GIF format and reading the X Bitmap format, gd has the capability to read and write its own ".gd" format. This format is not intended for general purpose use and should never be used to distribute images. It is not a compressed format. Its purpose is solely to allow very fast loading of images your program needs often in order to build other images for output. If you are experiencing performance problems when loading large, fixed GIF images your program needs to produce its output images, you may wish to examine the functions gdImageCreateFromGd and gdImageGd, which read and write .gd format images. The program "giftogd.c" is provided as a simple way of converting .gif files to .gd format. I emphasize again that you will not need to use this format unless you have a need for high-speed loading of a few frequently-used images in your program. Please tell us you're using gd! When you contact us and let us know you are using gd, you help us justify the time spent in maintaining and improving it. So please let us know. If the results are publicly visible on the web, a URL is a wonderful thing to receive, but if it's not a publicly visible project, a simple note is just as welcome. If you have problems If you have any difficulties with gd, feel free to contact the author, Thomas Boutell. Be sure to read this manual carefully first.
