Drawing images into images
Nov 17th, 2008, 11:32am  
Hi,
For a artwork project I need to create huges images (12000x12000 pixels)
So for that I use the createImage() function.
In this big image, I need to draw (100000 X) a small bitmap image reference at different size color and orientation.
How can I do that?

I don't want to draw directly into the screen using image() function because I don't have a 12000 x12000 screen resolution.... Wink (unless there is a zoom option for the screen but I don't think so)

Thanks

Although done at a much smaller scale, I did something similar (to show how to use transparency): Re: saving image file with transparency problem.

You can load and manipulate images off-screen, using PImage object.

You might already know that, but perhaps you will need to adjust memory settings of the JVM to handle such image.
