Copying and pasting a non-rectangular area of screen
#10
I've been messing around with it a bit, but I'm still not completely satisfied. Although it is possible to mark the shape of the letter C without error, there are still situations when the selection of the image is done incorrectly.

The original version took the center of the image as a fixed point at which the selection image is always present. That was wrong. This version will count all the points around the selection and then try to determine the point between the two boundaries where the color fill for the mask will be done. Well, sometimes is this operation wrong done. If anyone wants to add own version, please, I'd be happy to take a look.

Code: (Select All)

'copy/paste polygon image
'use mouse for inserting image

Image& = _ScreenImage
_Delay .5

Screen _NewImage(_DesktopWidth, _DesktopHeight, 32)
_FullScreen
Cls
