JScript RasterImage

RasterImage is an interface wrapper accessible as a property of the Document object and can be used to access raster images at pixel level and to change the canvas size of an image.

Methods and properties

• uint GetPixelColor(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW) - returns color of a pixel at the given coordinates in RGB format (8 bits per channel).
• uint GetPixelAlpha(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW)
• uint GetPixelRed(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW)
• uint GetPixelGreen(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW)
• uint GetPixelBlue(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW) - retrieve only a single color channel or alpha value of the pixel at given coordinates.
• uint GetPixel(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW) - return the color channels and alpha of a pixel as a packed ARGB value.
• void SetPixelColor(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW, uint pixelColor)
• void SetPixelAlpha(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW, uint pixelAlpha)
• void SetPixelRed(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW, uint pixelRed)
• void SetPixelGreen(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW, uint pixelGreen)
• void SetPixelBlue(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW, uint pixelBlue)
• void SetPixel(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW, uint packedPixel)
• uint sizeX (get) - width of the image.
• uint sizeY (get) - height of the image.
• uint sizeZ (get) - depth of the image.
• uint sizeW (get) - size of the 4-th dimension of the image.
• void Resize(uint sizeX, uint sizeY, uint sizeZ, uint sizeW, int offsetX, int offsetY, int offsetZ, int offsetW)
• void FillResize(uint sizeX, uint sizeY, uint sizeZ, uint sizeW, int offsetX, int offsetY, int offsetZ, int offsetW, uint fillColor)
• float GetPixelH(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW)
• float GetPixelL(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW)
• float GetPixelS(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW)
• void SetPixelHLS(uint posX, uint posY, uint posZ, uint posW, float pixelH, float pixelL, float pixelS)
• bool HasAlpha()
• void SetAlpha(bool alpha)
• uint resolutionXNum (get)
• uint resolutionXDenom (get)
• uint resolutionYNum (get)
• uint resolutionYDenom (get)
• uint resolutionZNum (get)
• uint resolutionZDenom (get)
• uint resolutionWNum (get)
• uint resolutionWDenom (get)
• void SetResolution(uint resXNum, uint resXDenom, uint resYNum, uint resYDenom, uint resZNum, uint resZDenom, uint resWNum, uint resWDenom)
• uint previewScale (get)

Example

// cache often used properties in local variables
var image = Document.RasterImage;
var sizeX = image.sizeX;
var sizeY = image.sizeY;

// iterate through pixels and erase those with even sum of X and Y coordinates
for (x=0; x<sizeX; x++)
    for (y=0; y<sizeY; y++)
        if ((x+y)&1)
            image.SetPixel(x, y, 0, 0, 0);

You know what would be awesome, if GetPixel could take float for x and y and bilinear interpolate....just so I dont have to add it to my scripts Would help speed them up a little.

That is an interesting idea, but maybe it would be better if it were a separate method.

Also, this is a very old interface, it has been here since the beginning of scripting in RW tools many years ago and there is some outdated stuff, for example the Z and W coordinates, which are not supported anymore. Perhaps a new interface (RasterImage2 or something better) would be even better. I'll put a proposal on the forum.

That's amazing! I just made this quick little code to make a red-blue gradient sort of thing!

// cache often used properties in local variables
var bmp = Document.RasterImage;
var w = bmp.sizeX;
var h = bmp.sizeY;
// the below lines are to just cache the values instead of calculating them every time!
var widthmap = [], heightmap = [];
// bitshifting for uint is not possible and 2**24, 2**16 are not recognized! :(
// Multiply with:
//   65536 to change R component
//   256 to change G component
//   1 to change B component
// The square root is there to simulate gamma correction or something, watch this for explanation: youtu.be/LKnqECcg6Gw
for (var x = w-1; x >= 0; x--) {widthmap[x] = parseInt(Math.sqrt(x/w)*255)*65536;}
for (var y = h-1; y >= 0; y--) {heightmap[y] = parseInt(Math.sqrt(y/h)*255)*1;}

for (var y = h-1; y >= 0; y--) {
    for (var x = w-1; x >= 0; x--) {
        bmp.SetPixel(x, y, 0, 0, 255*(16777216) + widthmap[x] + heightmap[y]);
    }
}

Okay how in the world does this end up making the image completely transparent?

I'm literally just unpacking each pixel and then repacking it

var image = Document.RasterImage;
var sizeX = image.sizeX;
var sizeY = image.sizeY;
for (x=0; x < sizeX; x++) {
	for (y=0; y < sizeY; y++) {
		var argb = image.GetPixel(x, y, 0, 0);
		var a = argb >> 24 & 0xFF;
		var r = argb >> 16 & 0xFF;
		var g = argb >> 8 & 0xFF;
		var b = argb & 0xFF;
		image.SetPixel(x, y, 0, 0, (a << 24) & (r << 16) & (g << 8) & b);
	}
}

Makes no sense...

You are using & instead of |, I suppose.

Oh whoops, thanks for catching that! I don't do bitwise math often xD
