Description of MUSHclient world function: world.BlendPixel


Name BlendPixel
Type Method
Summary Blends a single pixel with another, using a specified blending mode
Prototype long BlendPixel(long Blend, long Base, short Mode, double Opacity);
Description

This does the same thing as WindowBlendImage, except it operates on a single pixel (that is, a single RGB colour for the blend colour, and a single RGB colour for the base colour). This does the same thing, to a single pixel, as WindowBlendImage (with the same codes). This is intended for situations where you need to work on individual colours - either in a miniwindow image, or generally, to do things like merge them together in various ways.

Blend - the RGB code of the pixel to be blended

Base - the RGB code of the base pixel

Opacity - the amount of opacity, between 0 and 1 (floating-point number). An opacity of 0 means the result will be the base pixel. An opacity of 1 means the blend is fully applied. An opacity of 0.5 means the blended pixel is merged 50% with the original pixel.
