ofImageLoadSettings

variables

(Only works with JPG images) Define the settings used when loading an image with ofImage load(). There is 4 settings, that are all set to false by default : - accurate : the level of accuracy used to load the image - grayscale : if the image is colored or in grayscale - separateCMYK : separate the 4 colors layers of an image - exifRotate : rotate the image using Exif data

ofImageLoadSettings settings;
settings.accurate = true;
settings.grayscale = false;
settings.separateCMYK = false;
settings.exifRotate = false;

// Then load the image with these settings 
ofImage myImg;
myImg.load("anImage.jpg", settings);

Documentation from code comments


\todo Needs documentation.

bool accurate

bool ofImageLoadSettings::accurate

Define the level of accuracy used to load the image. True : more accurate, but slighly slower to load. False : faster load, but slighly less accurate (default) ~~~~{.cpp} ofImageLoadSettings settings; settings.accurate = true; // Then load the image with these settings ofImage myImg; myImg.load("anImage.jpg", settings); ~~~~

bool exifRotate

bool ofImageLoadSettings::exifRotate

Rotate according to the EXIF 'Orientation' tag if available. For example if the image was taken in portrait orientation, it exif data will show that it's orientation is "Vertical". True : the image will be rotated using Exif data False : the image won't be rotated (default) ~~~~{.cpp} ofImageLoadSettings settings; settings.exifRotate = true; // Then load the image with these settings ofImage myImg; myImg.load("anImage.jpg", settings); ~~~~

bool grayscale

bool ofImageLoadSettings::grayscale

Set the loaded image to grayscale. Probably better to set it on load, performance wise. True : grayscale image False : normal color image (default) ~~~~{.cpp} ofImageLoadSettings settings; settings.grayscale = true; // Then load the image with these settings ofImage myImg; myImg.load("anImage.jpg", settings); ~~~~

bool separateCMYK

bool ofImageLoadSettings::separateCMYK

Separate the 4 colors layers (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow & Black) of an image. Only works with CMYB color images : it has to be converted with Photophoh / Gimp, to use a CMYB color space. True : Separate 4 color layers False : no color layers separation (deafault) ~~~~{.cpp} ofImageLoadSettings settings; settings.separateCMYB = true; // Then load the image with these settings ofImage myImg; myImg.load("anImage.jpg", settings); ~~~~
