imageantialias

(PHP 4 >= 4.3.2, PHP 5)

imageantialias — Should antialias functions be used or not

Descrierea

bool imageantialias ( resource $image , bool $on )

Activate the fast drawing antialiased methods for lines and wired polygons. It does not support alpha components. It works using a direct blend operation. It works only with truecolor images.

Thickness and styled are not supported.

Using antialiased primitives with transparent background color can end with some unexpected results. The blend method uses the background color as any other colors. The lack of alpha component support does not allow an alpha based antialiasing method.

Parametri

image: O resursă - imagine, întoarsă de una din funcţiile de creare a imaginilor, cum ar fi imagecreatetruecolor ().
on: Whether to enable antialiasing or not.

Valorile întroarse

Întoarce valoarea TRUE în cazul succesului sau FALSE în cazul eşecului.

Note

Notă: Această funcţie este disponibilă numai dacă PHP este compilat cu versiunea bibliotecii GD furnizată împreună cu PHP.

An updated version of my antialiased arc script is now available at:

Have fun with it!

Of course, this IS a way to do antialiasing. Graphiccards do so. But for good results you should use at least a 4 times bigger source image than the destination to scale down. This is a 16 times higher fillrate. If you only use the proposed doublesized image, quality is still poor...

If you can't be bothered creating (or searching for) a full screen antialias function.

You can actually cheat (well a bit of a dirty inefficient hack really!!) 

and perform a fake antialias on an image by using 'imagecopyresampled'...



first create your source image twice the size of what you really want.



Then use 'imagecopyresampled' to shrink it to half the size, the function 

automatically interpolates pixels to create an antialias effect!



I've used this in a pie chart function and it works brilliantly,

not as slow as I thought it might be!



the rough code below should give you the idea...



<?php

$realWidth = 500;

$realHeight = 500;

$srcWidth = $realWidth * 2;

$srcHeight = $realHeight * 2;



// create the larger source image

$srcImage = imagecreatetruecolor($srcWidth,$srcHeight);



// create the real/final image

$destImage = imagecreatetruecolor($realWidth,$realHeight);



// now do whatever you want to draw in the source image

// blah....



// now the picture is finished, do the shrink...

imagecopyresampled($destImage,$srcImage,0,0,0,0,

$realWidth,$realHeight,$srcWidth,$srcHeight);



// now just do whatever you want with '$destImage' (e.g. display or output to file!)

I've written a php function which draws antialiased and filled elliptic arcs (segments of ellipses or full ellipses). It does not require the imageantialias function of php!

It's available at

This might help some people but I have created an antialiased, filled, ellipse function - the source for which is here:-

The following function draws an AntiAliased (unfilled) Ellipse.

It is used just liked the nomral ImageEllipse function.

The optional parameter sets the number of segments...



function ImageEllipseAA( &$img, $x, $y, $w, $h,$color,$segments=70) 

{

    $w=$w/2;

    $h=$h/2;

    $jump=2*M_PI/$segments;

    $oldx=$x+sin(-$jump)*$w;

    $oldy=$y+cos(-$jump)*$h;

    for($i=0;$i<2*(M_PI);$i+=$jump)

    {

        $newx=$x+sin($i)*$w;

        $newy=$y+cos($i)*$h;

        ImageLine($img,$newx,$newy,$oldx,$oldy,$color);

        $oldx=$newx;

        $oldy=$newy;

    }

}

Here is an optimized version of the optimized version of the antialiased circle function by sebbi: (more than 20 times faster)...



<?php



    function imageSmoothCircle( &$img, $cx, $cy, $cr, $color ) {

        $ir = $cr;

        $ix = 0;

        $iy = $ir;

        $ig = 2 * $ir - 3;

        $idgr = -6;

        $idgd = 4 * $ir - 10;

        $fill = imageColorExactAlpha( $img, $color[ 'R' ], $color[ 'G' ], $color[ 'B' ], 0 );

        imageLine( $img, $cx + $cr - 1, $cy, $cx, $cy, $fill );

        imageLine( $img, $cx - $cr + 1, $cy, $cx - 1, $cy, $fill );

        imageLine( $img, $cx, $cy + $cr - 1, $cx, $cy + 1, $fill );

The only trick I found to draw an antialiased polygon AND keep it transparent (to use them as overlays in google maps for example)... make two images and merge them. Order of operations is important and the transparency color of the final image must be set after the merge:



<?

header("Content-type: image/png");



$values = array(

           40,  50,  // Point 1 (x, y)

           20,  240, // Point 2 (x, y)

           60,  60,  // Point 3 (x, y)

           240, 20,  // Point 4 (x, y)

           50,  40,  // Point 5 (x, y)

           10,  10  // Point 6 (x, y)

           );                    



$im = imagecreate(250, 250);

$bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);



$im2 = imagecreatetruecolor(250, 250);

$bg2 = imagecolorallocate($im2, 255, 255, 255);

imagefilledrectangle($im2,0,0,249,249,$bg2);

imagecolortransparent($im2, $bg);

imageantialias($im2, true);

$c_red = imagecolorallocate($im2, 255, 0, 0);

imagepolygon($im2, $values, 6, $c_red);

imageantialias($im2, false);



imagecopymerge($im, $im2,0,0,0,0,250,250,50);



imagecolortransparent($im, $bg);

$c_red_alpha = imagecolorallocatealpha($im, 255, 0, 0, 60);

imagefilledpolygon($im, $values, 6, $c_red_alpha);



imagepng($im);

imagedestroy($im);

imagedestroy($im2);

I did a search in google and got following url:

http://www.isocalc.com/tutorials/antialias.htm

With this tutorial I was able to write a function to convert this algorithm into php, the result for a filled circel is this:

<?php

function imagefilledcircleantialiased(&$im, $cx, $cy, $r, $fgcolor, $bgcolor) {

  $fgcolors = imagecolorsforindex($im,$fgcolor);

  $bgcolors = imagecolorsforindex($im,$bgcolor);

  for ( $x = $cx - $r; $x <= $cx + $r; $x++ ) {

    for ( $y = $cy - $r; $y <= $cy + $r; $y++ ) {

      $rx = $x - $cx; $ry = $y - $cy;

      $ir = sqrt(( $rx == 0 ? 0 : pow($rx - 0.5*abs($rx)/$rx, 2) ) + ( $ry == 0 ? 0 : pow($ry - 0.5*abs($ry)/$ry, 2) ));

      $or = sqrt(( $rx == 0 ? 0 : pow($rx + 0.5*abs($rx)/$rx, 2) ) + ( $ry == 0 ? 0 : pow($ry + 0.5*abs($ry)/$ry, 2) ));

      if ( $or <= $r ) {

        imagesetpixel($im, $x, $y, $fgcolor);

      }

      elseif ( $ir < $r ) {

        $filled = 0;

        for ( $xx = $x - 0.45; $xx < $x + 0.5; $xx+=0.1 ) {

          for ( $yy = $y - 0.45; $yy < $y + 0.5; $yy+=0.1 ) {

            $rxx = $xx - $cx; $ryy = $yy - $cy;

            if ( sqrt(pow($rxx, 2) + pow($ryy, 2)) < $r ) $filled++;

          }

        }

        $red = round($bgcolors['red'] + ( $fgcolors['red'] - $bgcolors['red'] ) * $filled / 100);

        $green = round($bgcolors['green'] + ( $fgcolors['green'] - $bgcolors['green'] ) * $filled / 100);

        $blue = round($bgcolors['blue'] + ( $fgcolors['blue'] - $bgcolors['blue'] ) * $filled / 100);

        imagesetpixel($im, $x, $y, imagecolorclosest($im, $red, $green, $blue));

      }

    }

  }

}



$width = 160;

$height = 200;

$r = 20;

$bgc = "651713";

$fgc = "b12b2c";



$im = imagecreate($width, $height);

$bgcolor = imagecolorallocate($im, hexdec(substr($bgc, 0, 2)), hexdec(substr($bgc, 2, 2)), hexdec(substr($bgc, 4, 2)));

for( $i = 0; $i < 100; $i++ ) {

    imagecolorallocate($im, ( hexdec(substr($fgc, 0, 2)) + $i*hexdec(substr($bgc, 0, 2))) / ($i + 1), ( hexdec(substr($fgc, 2, 2)) + $i*hexdec(substr($bgc, 2, 2))) / ($i + 1), ( hexdec(substr($fgc, 4, 2)) + $i*hexdec(substr($bgc, 4, 2))) / ($i + 1));

}

$fgcolor = imagecolorclosest($im, hexdec(substr($fgc, 0, 2)), hexdec(substr($fgc, 2, 2)), hexdec(substr($fgc, 4, 2)));



imagefilledcircleantialiased($im, 80, 100, $r, $fgcolor, $bgcolor);



header("Content-Type: image/png");

imagepng($im);

?>

An improvement would be to draw the inner rectangle or more rectangles in the circle with the builtin rectangle function to reduce the usage of imagesetpixel() from (2*r)^2 to 2*Pi*(r + epsilon), in other words, the dependency on r would break down from square to linear.

Another improvement would be to determine filled and unfilled triangles in the observed pixel and calculate their areas, so we can get rid of the inner loops for getting the fraction filled/unfilled.

One can easily modify this function to solve other problems like lines, unfilled circles, etc.

So far using PHP 5.0.4 I've managed to get Imageantialias() to work well with:

ImageLine()

ImagePolygon()



but not with:

ImageArc()

ImageEllipse()

ImageFilled*()



You can still draw antialiased filled polygons by drawing a hollow polygon on top of a filled one with the same dimensions:

<?php

        $points=array($x,$y, $x2,$y2, $x3,$y3);

        imageFilledPolygon($im, $points, 3, $gray );

        imagePolygon($im, $points, 3, $gray );

?>
