The LOAD IMAGE
command allows you to load an image and to convert it into
an IMAGE
. The second parameter is the mode to use to convert
the given data (by default, it is equal to current mode)
The command support a set of modern image format, like:
* JPEG baseline & progressive
* PNG 1/2/4/8/16-bit-per-channel
* TGA
* BMP (non-1bpp, non-RLE)
* PSD (composited view only, no extra channels, 8/16 bit-per-channel)
* GIF
* HDR (radiance rgbE format)
* PIC (Softimage PIC)
* PNM (PPM and PGM binary only)
The image will be converted into a way that can be efficiently drawn
on the screen. It could be converted into indexed palette, and can be
rescaled as well.
Since it is possible to load only one file of the same type at a time, it is necessary
to be able to indicate an "alias" with which to exceed this limit. In this regard, there is also
the AS
syntax, which allows you to load the same file several times but with different names.
= LOAD IMAGE( filename[,mode] ) = LOAD IMAGE( filename AS alias[,mode] )
starship = LOAD IMAGE("starship.png") starship2 = LOAD IMAGE("starship.png" AS "starship2") alienAt11 = LOAD IMAGE("alien.jpg",11) alien2 = LOAD IMAGE("alien.jpg" AS "alien2",11)
