The `QImage` class provides a hardware-independent image representation that allows direct access to the pixel data, and can be used as a paint device. Qt provides four classes for handling image data: `QImage`, `QPixmap`, `QBitmap` and `QPicture`. `QImage` is designed and optimized for I/O, and for direct pixel access and manipulation, while `QPixmap` is designed and optimized for showing images on screen. `QBitmap` is only a convenience class that inherits `QPixmap`, ensuring a depth of 1. Finally, the `QPicture` class is a paint device that records and replays `QPainter` commands.

Because `QImage` is a `QPaintDevice` subclass, `QPainter` can be used to draw directly onto images. When using `QPainter` on a `QImage`, the painting can be performed in another thread than the current GUI thread.

The `QImage` class supports several image formats described by the `Format` enum. These include monochrome, 8-bit, 32-bit and alpha-blended images which are available in all versions of Qt 4.x.

`QImage` provides a collection of functions that can be used to obtain a variety of information about the image. There are also several functions that enables transformation of the image.

`QImage` objects can be passed around by value since the `QImage` class uses implicit data sharing. `QImage` objects can also be streamed and compared.

Note: If you would like to load `QImage` objects in a static build of Qt, refer to the Plugin HowTo.

## Reading and Writing Image Files

`QImage` provides several ways of loading an image file: The file can be loaded when constructing the `QImage` object, or by using the `load()` or `loadFromData()` functions later on. `QImage` also provides the static `fromData()` function, constructing a `QImage` from the given data. When loading an image, the file name can either refer to an actual file on disk or to one of the application's embedded resources. See The Qt Resource System overview for details on how to embed images and other resource files in the application's executable.

Simply call the `save()` function to save a `QImage` object.

The complete list of supported file formats are available through the `QImageReader::supportedImageFormats()` and `QImageWriter::supportedImageFormats()` functions. New file formats can be added as plugins. By default, Qt supports the following formats:

Format | Description | Qt's support
--- | --- | ---
BMP | Windows Bitmap | Read/write
GIF | Graphic Interchange Format (optional) | Read
JPG | Joint Photographic Experts Group | Read/write
JPEG | Joint Photographic Experts Group | Read/write
PNG | Portable Network Graphics | Read/write
PBM | Portable Bitmap | Read
PGM | Portable Graymap | Read
PPM | Portable Pixmap | Read/write
TIFF | Tagged Image File Format | Read/write
XBM | X11 Bitmap | Read/write
XPM | X11 Pixmap | Read/write

(To configure Qt with GIF support, pass `-qt-gif` to the `configure` script or check the appropriate option in the graphical installer.)

## Image Information

`QImage` provides a collection of functions that can be used to obtain a variety of information about the image:

| Available Functions
--- | ---
Geometry | The `size()`, `width()`, `height()`, `dotsPerMeterX()`, and `dotsPerMeterY()` functions provide information about the image size and aspect ratio. The `rect()` function returns the image's enclosing rectangle. The `valid()` function tells if a given pair of coordinates is within this rectangle. The `offset()` function returns the number of pixels by which the image is intended to be offset by when positioned relative to other images, which also can be manipulated using the `setOffset()` function.
Colors | The color of a pixel can be retrieved by passing its coordinates to the `pixel()` function. The `pixel()` function returns the color as a QRgb value indepedent of the image's format. In case of monochrome and 8-bit images, the `numColors()` and `colorTable()` functions provide information about the color components used to store the image data: The `colorTable()` function returns the image's entire color table. To obtain a single entry, use the `pixelIndex()` function to retrieve the pixel index for a given pair of coordinates, then use the `color()` function to retrieve the color. Note that if you create an 8-bit image manually, you have to set a valid color table on the image as well. The `hasAlphaChannel()` function tells if the image's format respects the alpha channel, or not. The `allGray()` and `isGrayscale()` functions tell whether an image's colors are all shades of gray. See also the `Pixel Manipulation` and `Image Transformations` sections.
Text | The `text()` function returns the image text associated with the given text key. An image's text keys can be retrieved using the `textKeys()` function. Use the `setText()` function to alter an image's text.
Low-level information | The `depth()` function returns the depth of the image. The supported depths are 1 (monochrome), 8 and 32 (for more information see the `Image Formats` section). The `format()`, `bytesPerLine()`, and `numBytes()` functions provide low-level information about the data stored in the image. The `cacheKey()` function returns a number that uniquely identifies the contents of this `QImage` object.

## Pixel Manipulation

The functions used to manipulate an image's pixels depend on the image format. The reason is that monochrome and 8-bit images are index-based and use a color lookup table, while 32-bit images store ARGB values directly. For more information on image formats, see the `Image Formats` section.

In case of a 32-bit image, the `setPixel()` function can be used to alter the color of the pixel at the given coordinates to any other color specified as an ARGB quadruplet. To make a suitable QRgb value, use the qRgb() (adding a default alpha component to the given RGB values, i.e. creating an opaque color) or qRgba() function. For example:

            QImage image = new QImage(3, 3, QImage.Format.Format_RGB32);
            int value;

            value = new QColor(189, 149, 39).rgb(); // 0xffbd9527
            image.setPixel(1, 1, value);

            value = new QColor(122, 163, 39).rgb(); // 0xff7aa327
            image.setPixel(0, 1, value);
            image.setPixel(1, 0, value);

            value = new QColor(237, 187, 51).rgb(); // 0xffedba31
            image.setPixel(2, 1, value);
32-bit

In case of a 8-bit and monchrome images, the pixel value is only an index from the image's color table. So the `setPixel()` function can only be used to alter the color of the pixel at the given coordinates to a predefined color from the image's color table, i.e. it can only change the pixel's index value. To alter or add a color to an image's color table, use the `setColor()` function.

An entry in the color table is an ARGB quadruplet encoded as an QRgb value. Use the qRgb() and qRgba() functions to make a suitable QRgb value for use with the `setColor()` function. For example:

            QImage image = new QImage(3, 3, QImage.Format.Format_Indexed8);
            int value;

            value = new QColor(122, 163, 39).rgb(); // 0xff7aa327
            image.setColor(0, value);

            value = new QColor(237, 187, 51).rgb(); // 0xffedba31
            image.setColor(1, value);

            value = new QColor(189, 149, 39).rgb(); // 0xffbd9527
            image.setColor(2, value);

            image.setPixel(0, 1, 0);
            image.setPixel(1, 0, 0);
            image.setPixel(1, 1, 2);
            image.setPixel(2, 1, 1);
8-bit

`QImage` also provide the `scanLine()` function which returns a pointer to the pixel data at the scanline with the given index, and the `bits()` function which returns a pointer to the first pixel data (this is equivalent to `scanLine(0)`).

## Image Formats

Each pixel stored in a `QImage` is represented by an integer. The size of the integer varies depending on the format. `QImage` supports several image formats described by the `Format` enum. The monochrome (1-bit), 8-bit and 32-bit images are available in all versions of Qt. In addition Qt for Embedded Linux also supports 2-bit, 4-bit, and 16-bit images. For more information about the Qtopia specific formats, see the documentation of the `Format` enum.

Monochrome images are stored using 1-bit indexes into a color table with at most two colors. There are two different types of monochrome images: big endian (MSB first) or little endian (LSB first) bit order.

8-bit images are stored using 8-bit indexes into a color table, i.e. they have a single byte per pixel. The color table is a QVector<QRgb>, and the QRgb typedef is equivalent to an unsigned int containing an ARGB quadruplet on the format 0xAARRGGBB.

32-bit images have no color table; instead, each pixel contains an QRgb value. There are three different types of 32-bit images storing RGB (i.e. 0xffRRGGBB), ARGB and premultiplied ARGB values respectively. In the premultiplied format the red, green, and blue channels are multiplied by the alpha component divided by 255.

An image's format can be retrieved using the `format()` function. Use the `convertToFormat()` functions to convert an image into another format. The `allGray()` and `isGrayscale()` functions tell whether a color image can safely be converted to a grayscale image.

## Image Transformations

`QImage` supports a number of functions for creating a new image that is a transformed version of the original: The `createAlphaMask()` function builds and returns a 1-bpp mask from the alpha buffer in this image, and the `createHeuristicMask()` function creates and returns a 1-bpp heuristic mask for this image. The latter function works by selecting a color from one of the corners, then chipping away pixels of that color starting at all the edges.

The `mirrored()` function returns a mirror of the image in the desired direction, the `scaled()` returns a copy of the image scaled to a rectangle of the desired measures, the `rgbSwapped()` function constructs a BGR image from a RGB image, and the `alphaChannel()` function constructs an image from this image's alpha channel.

The `scaledToWidth()` and `scaledToHeight()` functions return scaled copies of the image.

The `transformed()` function returns a copy of the image that is transformed with the given transformation matrix and transformation mode: Internally, the transformation matrix is adjusted to compensate for unwanted translation, i.e. `transformed()` returns the smallest image containing all transformed points of the original image. The static `trueMatrix()` function returns the actual matrix used for transforming the image.

There are also functions for changing attributes of an image in-place:

Function | Description
--- | ---
`setAlphaChannel()` | Sets the alpha channel of the image.
`setDotsPerMeterX()` | Defines the aspect ratio by setting the number of pixels that fit horizontally in a physical meter.
`setDotsPerMeterY()` | Defines the aspect ratio by setting the number of pixels that fit vertically in a physical meter.
`fill()` | Fills the entire image with the given pixel value.
`invertPixels()` | Inverts all pixel values in the image using the given `InvertMode` value.
`setColorTable()` | Sets the color table used to translate color indexes. Only monochrome and 8-bit formats.
`setNumColors()` | Resizes the color table. Only monochrome and 8-bit formats.

                  int width,
                  int height,
                  int bytesPerLine,
                  QImage.Format format)

  Constructs an image with the given `width`, `height` and `format`, that uses an existing memory buffer, `data`. The `width` and `height` must be specified in pixels. `bytesPerLine` specifies the number of bytes per line (stride).

  The buffer must remain valid throughout the life of the `QImage`. The image does not delete the buffer at destruction.

  If `format` is an indexed color format, the image color table is initially empty and must be sufficiently expanded with `setNumColors()` or `setColorTable()` before the image is used.

### QImage

    public QImage(java.lang.String[] xpm)

### QImage

    public QImage(byte[] data,
                  int width,
                  int height,
                  QImage.Format format)

  Constructs an image with the given `width`, `height`, `depth`, `bytesPerLine`, `colortable`, `numColors` and `bitOrder`, that uses an existing memory buffer, `data`. The image does not delete the buffer at destruction.

  Warning: This constructor is only available in Qt for Embedded Linux.

  The data has to be 32-bit aligned, and each scanline of data in the image must also be 32-bit aligned, so it's no longer possible to specify a custom `bytesPerLine` value.

### QImage

    public QImage(java.lang.String fileName,
                  java.lang.String format)

  Constructs an image and tries to load the image from the file with the given `fileName`.

  The loader attempts to read the image using the specified `format`. If the `format` is not specified (which is the default), the loader probes the file for a header to guess the file format.

  If the loading of the image failed, this object is a null image.

  The file name can either refer to an actual file on disk or to one of the application's embedded resources. See the \l{resources.html}{Resource System} overview for details on how to embed images and other resource files in the application's executable.

### QImage

    public QImage(java.lang.String fileName)

  Constructs an image from the given `xpm` image.

  Make sure that the image is a valid XPM image. Errors are silently ignored.

  Note that it's possible to squeeze the XPM variable a little bit by using an unusual declaration:

              String start_xpm[] = {
                  "16 15 8 1",
                  "a c #cec6bd",
                  .... };

  The extra `const` makes the entire definition read-only, which is slightly more efficient (e.g., when the code is in a shared library) and able to be stored in ROM with the application.

Method Detail

### allGray

    public final boolean allGray()

  Returns true if all the colors in the image are shades of gray (i. . their red, green and blue components are equal); otherwise false.

  Note that this function is slow for images without color table.

See also:
  `isGrayscale()`.

### alphaChannel

    public final QImage alphaChannel()

  Returns the alpha channel of the image as a new grayscale `QImage` in which each pixel's red, green, and blue values are given the alpha value of the original image. The color depth of the returned image is 8-bit.

  You can see an example of use of this function in `QPixmap`'s `alphaChannel()`, which works in the same way as this function on QPixmaps.

See also:
  `setAlphaChannel()`, `hasAlphaChannel()`, `Pixmap`, and `Image Transformations`.

### bits

    public final QNativePointer bits()

  Returns a pointer to the first pixel data. This is equivalent to scanLine(0).

  Note that `QImage` uses implicit data sharing. This function performs a deep copy of the shared pixel data, thus ensuring that this `QImage` is the only one using the current return value.

See also:
  `scanLine()`, and `numBytes()`.

### bytesPerLine

    public final int bytesPerLine()

  Returns the number of bytes per image scanline.

  This is equivalent to `numBytes()`/ `height()`.

See also:
  `scanLine()`.

### cacheKey

    public final long cacheKey()

  Returns a number that identifies the contents of this `QImage` object. Distinct `QImage` objects can only have the same key if they refer to the same contents.

  The key will change when the image is altered.

### color

    public final int color(int i)

  Returns the color in the color table at index `i`. The first color is at index 0.

  The colors in an image's color table are specified as ARGB quadruplets (QRgb). Use the qAlpha(), qRed(), qGreen(), and qBlue() functions to get the color value components.

See also:
  `setColor()`, `pixelIndex()`, and `Pixel Manipulation`.

### colorTable

    public final java.util.List colorTable()

  Returns a list of the colors contained in the image's color table, or an empty list if the image does not have a color table

See also.
  `setColorTable()`, `numColors()`, and `color()`.

  The returned image is copied from the position (`rectangle`.x(), `rectangle`.y()) in this image, and will always have the size of the given `rectangle`.

  In areas beyond this image, pixels are set to 0. For 32-bit RGB images, this means black; for 32-bit ARGB images, this means transparent black; for 8-bit images, this means the color with index 0 in the color table which can be anything; for 1-bit images, this means `Qt::color0` .

  If the given `rectangle` is a null rectangle the entire image is copied.

### createAlphaMask

    public final QImage createAlphaMask(Qt.ImageConversionFlag[] flags)

  Builds and returns a 1-bpp mask from the alpha buffer in this image. Returns a null image if the image's format is `QImage::Format_RGB32` .

  The `flags` argument is a bitwise-OR of the Qt::ImageConversionFlags, and controls the conversion process. Passing 0 for flags sets all the default options.

  The returned image has little-endian bit order (i.e. the image's format is `QImage::Format_MonoLSB` ), which you can convert to big-endian (`QImage::Format_Mono` ) using the `convertToFormat()` function.

See also:
  `createHeuristicMask()`, and `Image Transformations`.

### createAlphaMask

    public final QImage createAlphaMask()

### createAlphaMask

    public final QImage createAlphaMask(Qt.ImageConversionFlags flags)

  Builds and returns a 1-bpp mask from the alpha buffer in this image. Returns a null image if the image's format is `QImage::Format_RGB32` .

  The `flags` argument is a bitwise-OR of the Qt::ImageConversionFlags, and controls the conversion process. Passing 0 for flags sets all the default options.

See also:
  `createHeuristicMask()`, and `Image Transformations`.

### createHeuristicMask

    public final QImage createHeuristicMask()

  Creates and returns a 1-bpp heuristic mask for this image.

  The function works by selecting a color from one of the corners, then chipping away pixels of that color starting at all the edges. The four corners vote for which color is to be masked away. In case of a draw (this generally means that this function is not applicable to the image), the result is arbitrary.

  The returned image has little-endian bit order (i.e. the image's format is `QImage::Format_MonoLSB` ), which you can convert to big-endian (`QImage::Format_Mono` ) using the `convertToFormat()` function.

  If `clipTight` is true (the default) the mask is just large enough to cover the pixels; otherwise, the mask is larger than the data pixels.

  Note that this function disregards the alpha buffer.

See also:
  `createAlphaMask()`, and `Image Transformations`.

### createHeuristicMask

    public final QImage createHeuristicMask(boolean clipTight)

See also:
  `createAlphaMask()`, and `Image Transformations`.

### createMaskFromColor

    public final QImage createMaskFromColor(int color)

  Creates and returns a mask for this image based on the given `color` value. If the `mode` is MaskInColor (the default value), all pixels matching `color` will be opaque pixels in the mask. If `mode` is MaskOutColor, all pixels matching the given color will be transparent.

See also:
  `createAlphaMask()`, and `createHeuristicMask()`.

### createMaskFromColor

    public final QImage createMaskFromColor(int color,
                                            Qt.MaskMode mode)

  Creates and returns a mask for this image based on the given `color` value. If the `mode` is MaskInColor (the default value), all pixels matching `color` will be opaque pixels in the mask. If `mode` is MaskOutColor, all pixels matching the given color will be transparent.

  Returns the number of pixels that fit vertically in a physical meter. Together with `dotsPerMeterX()`, this number defines the intended scale and aspect ratio of the image.

See also:
  `setDotsPerMeterY()`, and `Image Information`.

### fill

    public final void fill(int pixel)

  Fills the entire image with the given `pixelValue`.

  If the depth of this image is 1, only the lowest bit is used. If you say fill(0), fill(2), etc., the image is filled with 0s. If you say fill(1), fill(3), etc., the image is filled with 1s. If the depth is 8, the lowest 8 bits are used and if the depth is 16 the lowest 16 bits are used.

  Note: `QImage::pixel()` returns the color of the pixel at the given coordinates while QColor::pixel() returns the pixel value of the underlying window system (essentially an index value), so normally you will want to use `QImage::pixel()` to use a color from an existing image or `QColor::rgb()` to use a specific color.

See also:
  `depth()`, and `Image Transformations`.

### format

    public final QImage.Format format()

### invertPixels

    public final void invertPixels()

  Inverts all pixel values in the image.

  The given invert `mode` only have a meaning when the image's depth is 32. The default `mode` is `InvertRgb` , which leaves the alpha channel unchanged. If the `mode` is `InvertRgba` , the alpha bits are also inverted.

  Inverting an 8-bit image means to replace all pixels using color index i with a pixel using color index 255 minus i. The same is the case for a 1-bit image. Note that the color table is not changed.

See also:
  `Image Transformations`.

### invertPixels

    public final void invertPixels(QImage.InvertMode arg__1)

  Inverts all pixel values in the image.

  The given invert `mode` only have a meaning when the image's depth is 32. The default `mode` is `InvertRgb` , which leaves the alpha channel unchanged. If the `mode` is `InvertRgba` , the alpha bits are also inverted.

  Inverting an 8-bit image means to replace all pixels using color index i with a pixel using color index 255 minus i. The same is the case for a 1-bit image. Note that the color table is not changed.

  For 8-bpp images, this function returns true if color(i) is QRgb(i, i, i) for all indexes of the color table; otherwise returns false.

See also:
  `allGray()`, and `Image Formats`.

  A null image has all parameters set to zero and no allocated data.

### logicalDpiX

    public final int logicalDpiX()

  Returns the horizontal resolution of the device in dots per inch, which is used when computing font sizes. For X11, this is usually the same as could be computed from `widthMM()`.

See also:
  `logicalDpiY()`, and `physicalDpiX()`.

  Specified by:
    `logicalDpiX` in interface `QPaintDeviceInterface`

### logicalDpiY

    public final int logicalDpiY()

  Returns the vertical resolution of the device in dots per inch, which is used when computing font sizes. For X11, this is usually the same as could be computed from `heightMM()`.

See also:
  `logicalDpiX()`, and `physicalDpiY()`.

See also:
  `bytesPerLine()`, `bits()`, and `Image Information`.

### numColors

    public final int numColors()

### scanLine

    public final QNativePointer scanLine(int arg__1)

  Returns a pointer to the pixel data at the scanline with index `i`. The first scanline is at index 0.

  The scanline data is aligned on a 32-bit boundary.

  Warning: If you are accessing 32-bpp image data, cast the returned pointer to `QRgb*` (QRgb has a 32-bit size) and use it to read/write the pixel value. You cannot use the `uchar*` pointer directly, because the pixel format depends on the byte order on the underlying platform. Use qRed(), qGreen(), qBlue(), and qAlpha() to access the pixels.

See also:
  `bytesPerLine()`, `bits()`, and `Pixel Manipulation`.

### setAlphaChannel

    public final void setAlphaChannel(QImage alphaChannel)

  Sets the alpha channel of this image to the given `alphaChannel`.

  If `alphaChannel` is an 8 bit grayscale image, the intensity values are written into this buffer directly. Otherwise, `alphaChannel` is converted to 32 bit and the intensity of the RGB pixel values is used.

  Note that the image will be converted to the `Format_ARGB32_Premultiplied` format if the function succeeds.

See also:
  `alphaChannel()`, `Image Transformations`, and `Image Formats`.

### setColor

    public final void setColor(int i,
                               int c)

  Sets the color at the given `index` in the color table, to the given to `colorValue`. The color value is an ARGB quadruplet.

  If `index` is outside the current size of the color table, it is expanded with `setNumColors()`.

See also:
  `color()`, `numColors()`, `setColorTable()`, and `Pixel Manipulation`.

### setColorTable

    public final void setColorTable(java.util.List colors)

  Sets the color table used to translate color indexes to QRgb values, to the specified `colors`.

  When the image is used, the color table must be large enough to have entries for all the pixel/index values present in the image, otherwise the results are undefined.

See also:
  `colorTable()`, `setColor()`, and `Image Transformations`.

### setDotsPerMeterX

    public final void setDotsPerMeterX(int arg__1)

  Sets the number of pixels that fit horizontally in a physical meter, to `x`.

  Together with `dotsPerMeterY()`, this number defines the intended scale and aspect ratio of the image.

See also:
  `dotsPerMeterX()`, and `Image Information`.

### setDotsPerMeterY

    public final void setDotsPerMeterY(int arg__1)

  Sets the number of pixels that fit vertically in a physical meter, to `y`.

  Together with `dotsPerMeterX()`, this number defines the intended scale and aspect ratio of the image.

See also:
  `dotsPerMeterY()`, and `Image Information`.

### setNumColors

    public final void setNumColors(int arg__1)

  Resizes the color table to contain `numColors` entries.

  If the color table is expanded, all the extra colors will be set to transparent (i.e qRgba(0, 0, 0, 0)).

  When the image is used, the color table must be large enough to have entries for all the pixel/index values present in the image, otherwise the results are undefined.

See also:
  `numColors()`, `colorTable()`, `setColor()`, and `Image Transformations`.

### setOffset

    public final void setOffset(QPoint arg__1)

  Sets the the number of pixels by which the image is intended to be offset by when positioning relative to other images, to `offset`.

See also:
  `offset()`, and `Image Information`.

### setPixel

    public final void setPixel(QPoint pt,
                               int index_or_rgb)

  Sets the pixel index or color at the given `position` to `index_or_rgb`.

  If the image's format is either monochrome or 8-bit, the given `index_or_rgb` value must be an index in the image's color table, otherwise the parameter must be a QRgb value.

  If `position` is not a valid coordinate pair in the image, or if `index_or_rgb` >= `numColors()` in the case of monochrome and 8-bit images, the result is undefined.

  Warning: This function is expensive due to the call of the internal `detach()` function called within; if performance is a concern, we recommend the use of `scanLine()` to access pixel data directly.

See also:
  `pixel()`, and `Pixel Manipulation`.

### setPixel

    public final void setPixel(int x,
                               int y,
                               int index_or_rgb)

  Sets the pixel index or color at (`x`, `y`) to `index_or_rgb`.

### setText

    public final void setText(java.lang.String key,
                              java.lang.String value)

  Sets the image text to the given `text` and associate it with the given `key`.

  If you just want to store a single text block (i.e., a "comment" or just a description), you can either pass an empty key, or use a generic key like "Description".

  The image text is embedded into the image data when you call `save()` or `QImageWriter::write()`.

  Not all image formats support embedded text. You can find out if a specific image or format supports embedding text by using `QImageWriter::supportsOption()`. We give an example:

          QImageWriter writer;
          writer.setFormat("png");
          if (writer.supportsOption(QImageIOHandler::Description))
              qDebug() << "Png supports embedded text";

  You can use `QImageWriter::supportedImageFormats()` to find out which image formats are available to you.
