Generate image with text

[Dave Zowasky]

Hello all,

I need to get Ascii text data into any image file format. Any suggestions?

Thanks

[Antonio Linares]

You can write text on top of an image:

oImage:Say( nRow, nCol, cText, ... )

Please review Class TWindow Method Say(). As Class TImage inherits from TControl and TControl from TWindow, then you can use Method Say() on a TImage object too

Antonio,

Thanks for the quick response.

My problem my be more complicated. I am looking to use freeimage
to create a tif.

I need to make the final image file contain the text.

The Image:say() does not modify the image object before I save it in freeimage.

Thanks

Dave,

Once you write on top of the image then you can do this:

DibWrite( "screen.bmp", DibFromBitmap( WndBitmap( oImage:hWnd ) ) )

[Antonio Linares]

If you need to save it in a different format from BMP, please review Class TImage Method SaveImage(), and modify it based on the previous msg source code

Antonio,

It is looking good!

Thanks for the help
