如何将每像素alpha的位图绘制到控件的Canvas上？

Question

Question

What's the best way to draw a bitmap with a per-pixel alpha onto a control's Canvas?

My bitmap data is stored in a 2d array of 32-bit pixel values.

T32BitPixel = packed record
    Blue  : byte;
    Green : byte;
    Red   : byte;
    Alpha : byte;
end;

My control is a descendent of TCustomTransparentControl .

Background

For a GUI I'm building I need to draw semi-transparent controls over other controls and textured backgrounds. The control graphics are created using AggPasMod (a port of Anti-Grain Geometry).

TCustomTransparentControl.Canvas.Handle provides access to the device context for drawing but I'm not sure how to blit the pixel data from there.

Assuming, you have your pixel array composed like the image rows and pixels in them, I would do it this way. The Canvas parameter is a target canvas, the X and Y are coordinates, where the bitmap will be rendered in the target canvas and the Pixels is the pixel array:

type
  TPixel = packed record
    B: Byte;
    G: Byte;
    R: Byte;
    A: Byte;
  end;
  TPixelArray = array of array of TPixel;

procedure RenderBitmap(Canvas: TCanvas; X, Y: Integer; Pixels: TPixelArray);
var
  I: Integer;
  Size: Integer;
  Bitmap: TBitmap;
  BlendFunction: TBlendFunction;
begin
  Bitmap := TBitmap.Create;
  try
    Bitmap.PixelFormat := pf32bit;
    Bitmap.Width := Length(Pixels[0]);
    Bitmap.Height := Length(Pixels);
    Size := Bitmap.Width * SizeOf(TPixel);

    for I := 0 to Bitmap.Height - 1 do
      Move(Pixels[I][0], Bitmap.ScanLine[I]^, Size);

    BlendFunction.BlendOp := AC_SRC_OVER;
    BlendFunction.BlendFlags := 0;
    BlendFunction.SourceConstantAlpha := 255;
    BlendFunction.AlphaFormat := AC_SRC_ALPHA;
    AlphaBlend(Canvas.Handle, X, Y, Bitmap.Width, Bitmap.Height,
      Bitmap.Canvas.Handle, 0, 0, Bitmap.Width, Bitmap.Height, BlendFunction);
  finally
    Bitmap.Free;
  end;
end;
