vpGetImage(3)		   Library Functions Manual		 vpGetImage(3)

NAME
       vpGetImage - get	a field	of the intermediate image

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<volpack.h>

       vpResult
       vpGetImage(vpc,	image,	width,	height,	 scan_bytes,  pixel_type,  im-
	       age_type)
	   vpContext *vpc;
	   void	*image;
	   int width, height;
	   int scan_bytes;
	   int pixel_type, image_type;

ARGUMENTS
       vpc    VolPack context from vpCreateContext.

       image  2D array for storing result image.

       width  Width of array in	pixels.

       height Height of	array in pixels.

       scan_bytes
	      Number of	bytes per scanline in array.

       pixel_type
	      Code indicating the format of each pixel in the array.

       image_type
	      Code indicating the source of the	image data (VP_IMAGE_BUFFER or
	      VP_SHADOW_BUFFER).

DESCRIPTION
       This is a debugging function.  It is used to retrieve the  contents  of
       one  of	the  temporary rendering buffers used during rendering,	namely
       the intermediate	image or the shadow buffer.  Rendering consists	of two
       stages: the volume is resampled and composited  into  the  intermediate
       image  to produce a distorted volume rendering, and then	the intermedi-
       ate image is warped into	the final image.  If shadows are enabled  then
       the  shadow buffer is used during the first stage to incrementally com-
       pute which voxels are illuminated by the	light source.	This  function
       returns images produced during the first	stage, before the final	warp.

       This  function  may be called after a call to one of the	rendering rou-
       tines (see vpRenderRawVolume(3)).  If the image_type argument is	VP_IM-
       AGE_BUFFER then data will be copied from	the intermediate  image.   The
       pixel_type  argument  specifies what information	to copy	and the	format
       for storing the data in the output  array.   The	 possible  values  for
       pixel_type  are	the same as for	the pixel_type argument	to vpSetImage.
       For instance, use VP_LUMINANCE to extract the grayscale intensity  (as-
       suming the current shader produces grayscale pixels).

       If the image_type argument is VP_SHADOW_BUFFER then data	will be	copied
       from the	shadow buffer.	The only valid option for pixel_type is	VP_AL-
       PHA, since no color information is stored in the	shadow buffer.

       See vpSetImage for details on the pixel formats,	the layout of the out-
       put array, and the remaining arguments.

       To  find	 the  required	size for the result array, use vpGeti with the
       VP_INTERMEDIATE_WIDTH  and  VP_INTERMEDIATE_HEIGHT  options  (when  im-
       age_type	   is	 VP_IMAGE_BUFFER)    or	   the	 VP_SHADOW_WIDTH   and
       VP_SHADOW_HEIGHT	options	(when image_type is VP_SHADOW_BUFFER).

ERRORS
       The normal return value is VP_OK.  The following	 error	return	values
       are possible:

       VPERROR_BAD_SIZE
	      The  destination array size is incorrect or there	is no interme-
	      diate image.

       VPERROR_BAD_OPTION
	      The field	argument is invalid.
