Description
The Utils.Picture property lets you get an empty Picture object, which is intended to represent an image.
Declaration
Applies To
The property is applied to the following object:
Property Value
A Picture object that currently does not correspond to any image.
Example
The following example demonstrates how to create an empty Picture object using the Utils.Picture method and how to work with images using methods of the Picture object.
JavaScript
function Test1()
{
var Pict, NewPict, x, y;
// Creates a new empty Picture object
Pict = Utils.Picture;
// Loads the image from a file and posts it to the log
Pict.LoadFromFile("D:\\Data\\my_image.png");
Log.Picture(Pict);
// Obtains the bounds of the new image
x = Pict.Size.Width - 10;
y = Pict.Size.Height - 10;
// Obtains the new Picture object containing the specified rectangular area of the loaded image
NewPict = Pict.GetRect(0, 0, x, y);
// Changes the color of the top left pixel of the new image to the red color
NewPict.$set("Pixels", 0, 0, clRed);
// Saves the obtained picture to the new file and posts the image to the log
NewPict.SaveToFile("D:\\Data\\my_new_image.png");
Log.Picture(NewPict);
}
JScript
function Test1()
{
var Pict, NewPict, x, y;
// Creates a new empty Picture object
Pict = Utils.Picture;
// Loads the image from a file and posts it to the log
Pict.LoadFromFile("D:\\Data\\my_image.png");
Log.Picture(Pict);
// Obtains the bounds of the new image
x = Pict.Size.Width - 10;
y = Pict.Size.Height - 10;
// Obtains the new Picture object containing the specified rectangular area of the loaded image
NewPict = Pict.GetRect(0, 0, x, y);
// Changes the color of the top left pixel of the new image to the red color
NewPict.Pixels(0,0)= clRed;
// Saves the obtained picture to the new file and posts the image to the log
NewPict.SaveToFile("D:\\Data\\my_new_image.png");
Log.Picture(NewPict);
