The parameter is the name of the image, that is, the name specified to the \fBimage create photo\fR command, or assigned by that command if no name was specified. .PP \fBTk_PhotoPutBlock\fR is used to supply blocks of image data to be displayed. The call affects an area of the image of size \fIwidth\fR x \fIheight\fR pixels, with its top-left corner at coordinates (\fIx\fR,\fIy\fR). All of \fIwidth\fR, \fIheight\fR, \fIx\fR, and \fIy\fR must be non-negative. If part of this area lies outside the current bounds of the image, the image will be expanded to include the area, unless the user has specified an explicit image size with the \fB\-width\fR and/or \fB\-height\fR widget configuration options (see photo(n)); in that case the area is silently clipped to the image boundaries. .PP The \fIblock\fR parameter is a pointer to a \fBTk_PhotoImageBlock\fR structure, defined as follows: .CS typedef struct { unsigned char *\fIpixelPtr\fR; int \fIwidth\fR; int \fIheight\fR; int \fIpitch\fR; int \fIpixelSize\fR; int \fIoffset[3]\fR; } Tk_PhotoImageBlock; .CE The \fIpixelPtr\fR field points to the first pixel, that is, the top-left pixel in the block. The \fIwidth\fR and \fIheight\fR fields specify the dimensions of the block of pixels. The \fIpixelSize\fR field specifies the address difference between two horizontally adjacent pixels. Often it is 3 or 4, but it can have any value. The \fIpitch\fR field specifies the address difference between two vertically adjacent pixels. The \fIoffset\fR array contains the offsets from the address of a pixel to the addresses of the bytes containing the red, green and blue components. These are normally 0, 1 and 2, but can have other values, e.g., for images that are stored as separate red, green and blue planes. .PP The value given for the \fIwidth\fR and \fIheight\fR parameters to \fBTk_PhotoPutBlock\fR do not have to correspond to the values specified in \fIblock\fR. If they are smaller, \fBTk_PhotoPutBlock\fR extracts a sub-block from the image data supplied. If they are larger, the data given are replicated (in a tiled fashion) to fill the specified area. These rules operate independently in the horizontal and vertical directions. .PP \fBTk_PhotoPutZoomedBlock\fR works like \fBTk_PhotoPutBlock\fR except that the image can be reduced or enlarged for display. The \fIsubsampleX\fR and \fIsubsampleY\fR parameters allow the size of the image to be reduced by subsampling. \fBTk_PhotoPutZoomedBlock\fR will use only pixels from the input image whose X coordinates are multiples of \fIsubsampleX\fR, and whose Y coordinates are multiples of \fIsubsampleY\fR. For example, an image of 512x512 pixels can be reduced to 256x256 by setting \fIsubsampleX\fR and \fIsubsampleY\fR to 2. .PP The \fIzoomX\fR and \fIzoomY\fR parameters allow the image to be enlarged by pixel replication. Each pixel of the (possibly subsampled) input image will be written to a block \fIzoomX\fR pixels wide and \fIzoomY\fR pixels high of the displayed image. Subsampling and zooming can be used together for special effects. .PP \fBTk_PhotoGetImage\fR can be used to retrieve image data from a photo image. \fBTk_PhotoGetImage\fR fills in the structure pointed to by the \fIblockPtr\fR parameter with values that describe the address and layout of the image data that the photo image has stored internally. The values are valid until the image is destroyed or its size is changed. \fBTk_PhotoGetImage\fR returns 1 for compatibility with the corresponding procedure in the old photo widget. .PP \fBTk_PhotoBlank\fR blanks the entire area of the photo image. Blank areas of a photo image are transparent. .PP \fBTk_PhotoExpand\fR requests that the widget's image be expanded to be at least \fIwidth\fR x \fIheight\fR pixels in size. The width and/or height are unchanged if the user has specified an explicit image width or height with the \fB\-width\fR and/or \fB\-height\fR configuration options, respectively. If the image data are being supplied in many small blocks, it is more efficient to use \fBTk_PhotoExpand\fR or \fBTk_PhotoSetSize\fR at the beginning rather than allowing the image to expand in many small increments as image blocks are supplied. .PP \fBTk_PhotoSetSize\fR specifies the size of the image, as if the user had specified the given \fIwidth\fR and \fIheight\fR values to the \fB\-width\fR and \fB\-height\fR configuration options. A value of zero for \fIwidth\fR or \fIheight\fR does not change the image's width or height, but allows the width or height to be changed by subsequent calls to \fBTk_PhotoPutBlock\fR, \fBTk_PhotoPutZoomedBlock\fR or \fBTk_PhotoExpand\fR. .PP \fBTk_PhotoGetSize\fR returns the dimensions of the image in *\fIwidthPtr\fR and *\fIheightPtr\fR. .SH CREDITS .PP The code for the photo image type was developed by Paul Mackerras, based on his earlier photo widget code. .SH KEYWORDS photo, image
