Manipulating Draw Mode Settings and Using GDI+ to Save

Click here for a larger image.

Environment: Tested on Windows 2000

A simple demonstration of draw mode settings as well as a demonstration using GDI+ to save to a file.

This is my first column. I'll show you how to set the drawing mode with SetROP2. Parameters R2_NOTXORPEN Pixel are the inverse of the R2_XORPEN color (final pixel = NOT(pen XOR screen pixel)).

For saving to a file, I showed you how to use GDI+. Before using GDI+, you must initialize GDI+ with GdiplusStartup(...) and override GetEncoderClsid(...) to get the encode class identified for the target image type.

int CMiniProjectView::GetEncoderClsid
                      (const WCHAR* format, CLSID* pClsid)
{
  UINT  num = 0;          // number of image encoders
  UINT  size = 0;         // size of the image encoder array
                          // in bytes

  ImageCodecInfo* pImageCodecInfo = NULL;

  GetImageEncodersSize(&num, &size);
  if(size == 0)
    return -1;

  pImageCodecInfo = (ImageCodecInfo*)(malloc(size));
  if(pImageCodecInfo == NULL)
    return -1;

  GetImageEncoders(num, size, pImageCodecInfo);

  for(UINT j = 0; j < num; ++j)
  {
    if( wcscmp(pImageCodecInfo[j].MimeType, format) == 0 )
    {
      *pClsid = pImageCodecInfo[j].Clsid;
      free(pImageCodecInfo);
      return j;  // Success
    }
  }

  free(pImageCodecInfo);
  return -1;
}


  GdiplusStartupInput gdiplusStartupInput;
  ULONG_PTR gdiplusToken;
  GdiplusStartup(&gdiplusToken, &gdiplusStartupInput, NULL);

  Bitmap *pBitmap = Bitmap::FromHBITMAP(
                    (HBITMAP)bmp.GetSafeHandle(),
                    (HPALETTE)pPalette->GetSafeHandle());

  //get encoder CLSID
  CLSID Clsid;
  if(fileDlg.GetFileExt().MakeUpper() == _T("BMP"))
    GetEncoderClsid(L"image/bmp", &Clsid);
  else if(fileDlg.GetFileExt().MakeUpper() == _T("GIF"))
    GetEncoderClsid(L"image/gif", &Clsid);
  else if(fileDlg.GetFileExt().MakeUpper() == _T("JPG"))
    GetEncoderClsid(L"image/jpeg", &Clsid);

  //save to file with current color
  BSTR bstrFileName = fileDlg.GetPathName().AllocSysString();
  pBitmap->Save(bstrFileName, &Clsid, NULL);

  //clear and shutdown GDI+
  SysFreeString(bstrFileName);
  GdiplusShutdown(gdiplusToken);

You must initialize an array of EncoderParameters if you want to set parameters for encoding.

  long nCompress = 0;
  EncoderParameters encoderParameters[2];
  encoderParameters[0].Count = 2;
  encoderParameters[0].Parameter[0].Guid = EncoderQuality;
  encoderParameters[0].Parameter[0].NumberOfValues = 1;
  encoderParameters[0].Parameter[0].Type = 
                       EncoderParameterValueTypeLong;
  encoderParameters[0].Parameter[0].Value = &nCompress;

  int nDep = 1;
  encoderParameters[1].Parameter[0].Guid = EncoderColorDepth;
  encoderParameters[1].Parameter[0].NumberOfValues = 1;
  encoderParameters[1].Parameter[0].Type = 
                       EncoderParameterValueTypeLong;
  encoderParameters[1].Parameter[0].Value = &nDep;

  //save to file with current color
  BSTR bstrFileName =  fileDlg.GetPathName().AllocSysString();
  pBitmap->Save(bstrFileName, &Clsid, encoderParameters);
