Member Function Documentation

◆ setGlowProperties()

void GlowEffect::setGlowProperties ( float newRadius,
Colour newColour,
Point< int > offset = {} )

Sets the glow's radius and colour.

The radius is how large the blur should be, and the colour is used to render it (for a less intense glow, lower the colour's opacity).

◆ applyEffect()

void GlowEffect::applyEffect ( Image & sourceImage,
Graphics & destContext,
float scaleFactor,
float alpha )
overridevirtual

Overridden to render the effect.

The implementation of this method must use the image that is passed in as its source, and should render its output to the graphics context passed in.

Parameters
sourceImagethe image that the source component has just rendered with its paint() method. The image may or may not have an alpha channel, depending on whether the component is opaque.
destContextthe graphics context to use to draw the resultant image.
scaleFactora scale factor that has been applied to the image - e.g. if this is 2, then the image is actually scaled-up to twice the original resolution
alphathe alpha with which to draw the resultant image to the target context

Implements ImageEffectFilter.
