TImageENPaintEngine
class is a powerful and easy to use Engine-type
component designed to add reliable painting capabilities
to the
ImageEn graphics
library.. If you feel that the Imageen paint demo
features are inadequate for your needs, and if you
further need abilities like cloning, erasing, painting
over layers, blending modes etc.. try this
engine! It's much faster than the imageEn
painting demo and it instantly provides you with many options,
without having to write any low-level code, but just a
few methods calls, setting parameters and handling a few
events.
It works in conjunction with ImageEnView or any
descendant (i.e. imageEn). The paint engine can be used
in any delphi application that requires advanced
painting / drawing capabilities with digital
images. |
The engine has been specifically
designed to interact with any TImageenView component, so
It can be used also with a
descendant component such as
TImageEnVect.
By
simply calling the StartPainting / StopPainting methods,
you will be able to provide powerful digital painting
abilities to the users of your image editing
application.
This
component is designed to provide smooth painting and
drawing capabilities with maximum control from the user,
thanks to the integration with the wintab interface. A
detailed demo project will show you how to program and
customize the engine's behavior at its best.
