Increases or decreases the saturation of colors in a bitmap.
#include "l_bitmap.h"
L_LTIMGCLR_API L_INT L_ChangeBitmapSaturation(pBitmap, nChange, uFlags)
Pointer to the bitmap handle that references the bitmap to be affected.
Amount to change saturation. Values are percentages between -1000 and +1000.
Reserved for future use. Must be 0.
Value | Meaning |
---|---|
SUCCESS | The function was successful. |
< 1 | An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes. |
This function does not support signed data images. It returns the error code ERROR_SIGNED_DATA_NOT_SUPPORTED if a signed data image is passed to this function.
Negative values decrease the saturation of colors. Positive values increase the saturation. The saturation level is increased or decreased by a percentage of its present saturation level. For example, an increase of 20% of the current saturation level "L" will raise the new saturation level "L1" to a value L + 0.20 * L. Likewise, increasing the saturation level 100% doubles the saturation level ( L1 = L + 1.0 * L). Decreasing the saturation level 100% will set the new saturation level to 0. This process is carried out for every pixel.
This function supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available in the Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.
To update a status bar or detect a user interrupt during execution of this function, refer to L_SetStatusCallback.
This function does not support 32-bit grayscale images. It returns the error code ERROR_GRAY32_UNSUPPORTED if a 32-bit grayscale image is passed to this function.

This example loads a bitmap and increases its color saturation.
