SyntaxBomb - Indie Coders

Ive made yesterday a png image combiner.. it take single png images and makes them one long strip image for animation purpose.

The thing is that when i create an empty image and if the image is bigger than the screen resolution, when i draw on it the single pngs, if it passes the screen resolution it wont draw.
so the outcome depands on the resolution i set up to the app..

For example if i did xgraphics (800,600) and the target image is 1200,100 it will not draw on it from point x800 and above.

anyway  i can live with that.. but its kinda unelegent..

just wanted to share this. if anyone has a solution..

all is left to me is to find a way to upload a gif so i can turn it onto a png for my editor.
since i have  problams with freeimage and so, im using external program to turn gif ont o single png images

My framework contains a little helper for such stuff:
https://github.com/GWRon/Dig/blob/master/base.gfx.imagehelper.bmx

Function DrawImageOnImage:int(src:object, dest:object, x:Int, y:Int, modifyColor:TColor = null, drawMode:int=0)


So in essence:
target = CreatePixmap(width, height, format)
ClearPixels(target, 0)

DrawImageOnImge(mysprite, target, 0, 0)

SavePixmapPNG(target, ...)


The whole thing is using software only, so no texture size limit - except for the amount of memory available on the Computer (or for a 32bit build ... the 32bit )

lol ok man, i think i have enough memory since the commodore 64,
Ill give it a try.

but like i said , my main problem remains, to load Gif files.

btw can you explain me how to download from github? i dont understand its concept, why there is no [download file] button
I did Edit object and than copied the whole text.. that the only way i found to get it

For such sourcefiles here:



For complete files/repositories:
- click on "clone or download" (green button)
- click on "download" -> repositoryname-master.zip is downloaded



- to download a specific version state you can - eg. - select one from the "commits" (hit commit in the nav bar) and then hit the "< >" button and you will land on a similar page as above with the green button for downloads



bye
Ron

Wow.. you really put an effort, i cant ask more than that

Thanks
