Set color tranparent to a region in an image

[jguinch]

Hello

I'm looking for a way to apply a transparent color to a region in an image (crop a rect into the image).

In the helpfile, I found _GDIPlus_BitmapSetPixel but I don't know if there is a constant for the transparent color (and if there is a faster way).

The goal is to build some puzzle pieces from a bitmap

 

Thanks in advance

Hi jguinch!

I don't have a code to your question. But, see this post: https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/174611-have-some-autoit-code-to-cut-a-image-in-png-file/

This code can found every neighboor pixel with same color, the result of all neighbor pixels is an array.

With this array you can re-paint or apply the transparency.

I thinking in this way, you get the pixel in this format:

0xTTRRGGBB (TT: transparency, RR, GG, BB) and change the TT's value to 0 (or other value).

You can obtain the pixel color with tranparency with _GDIPlus_BitmapGetPixel.

Br, Luigi.

_GDIPlus_BitmapSetPixel($hBitmap, $iX, $iY, 0x0)

A faster solution is to use _GDIPlus_BitmapLockBits. Check out the help file for an example.

Thanks.

Luigi : I want to apply a transparency to a region, not depending of a pixel color. Your link is still interesting.

Danyfirex : nice, it works (it risks to be slow for several images, but it's a very good way).

UEZ : OK, i will try it and come with either the solution, or probably questions.
