I think you need an offscreen QCRenderer:

Or simple init the QCRenderer object with a composition:

Hi Folks,
I've been using QC as a test bed for sequences of CI filters and math operations for image analysis.

Basically, I put the image in, pass it through various filters and bits 'n bobs, and some info comes out the other end.

Ideally, I'd like to somehow invoke this QC composition from my Cocoa code. Much like a function or method. I don't want to display the composition output anywhere. It's just for analysis.

If I could do that, it would be great. I could tweak things easily in QC, then hop back to XCode.

I see that you can use compositions in IB and have them displayed in QCView. That's not what I want to do though.

Does anyone have any experience with this? Is it a worthwhile approach?

Thanks again,
Max
