bitmap manipulation

Solar2D Daily Builds and Public Releases
#1

it would be great to have a bitmap (or bitmapData) class with methods like clone, draw, colorTransform, copyChannel, copyPixels, floodFill, getPixels, setPixels…

#2

it is a feature request that is on our feature pool.

#3

that’s good to hear

how about bitmap filters? it would be awesome to have

i hope i’m not asking for too much

Yes you are asking too much. You will be banned from the forum. Just Kidding.

:wink:
That is also on the radar.

i found a good reason to be banned from the forum: asking for the displacementMap filter!

i understand blur, glow, shadow filters come first, but the displacementMap filter formula is out there

Hey…to add to this… the blog post about the making the Photoshop app had some pixel manipulation stuff in it!

Seconding this! [import]uid: 5022 topic_id: 1895 reply_id: 6614[/import]

#8

Hi, I’m currently working on a game, and it needs flood fill feature. Do you have any estimation when will this feature launch? Or should i build it by me self for now? :slight_smile: [import]uid: 9410 topic_id: 1895 reply_id: 8028[/import]

#9

Any updates as to when these features might arrive? I agree that bitmap/pixel manipulation would be very useful. [import]uid: 26741 topic_id: 1895 reply_id: 47499[/import]

#10

+1!

I realize this is in the “feature pool” but I also realized this is the only feature request related to opening access to bitmapdata, which in turn would help resolve a lot of existing performance issues as well. (and it’s been in the feature pool for well over a year or more)

Seems like this feature would be a holy grail to many of us for performance reasons, and for all sorts of creative ones too. I wanted to make sure I got a +1 in here, in case anyone on the Dev team was wondering what the priority should be for this…

e.g. this is related to Blitting:

realtime image processing:

sending bitmap data via network:

huge performance increase:

Such features are greatly expand possibilities, and will allow to create different kind of games (not only based on images-drawn-by-artists). [import]uid: 9058 topic_id: 1895 reply_id: 67498[/import]

  • Color Matrix (http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/ColorMatrix.aspx)
    Some simple math to change the color of the entire Image!
  • Dynamic Masks (add, subtract, etc… any displayObject to it)
    -> therefor it would be good to create polygons to create custom shapes for the mask!

Need this as well!
