But you should avoid that and process it further, e.g. use JPEG functions on this classes.

[MBS] bitmapImageRepForCachingDisplayInRect
Christian, there's example code floating around that uses bitmapImageRepForCachingDisplayInRect to get a "screenshot" of a NSView - and it seems like it's more likely to pick up content such as HTMLViewers. (See https://forum.xojo.com/17847-yosemite-and-overlaymbs-fadetransition-can-t-capture-vibrancy/p1#p148223 for example) My question: is there a way in MBSPlugins to do this and quickly convert back to a Xojo Picture object? I've some sample code which gets the bitmapImageRep and then converts it to a BMP and then use Picture.FromData(), but this seems like it's probably a slow process. Possibly related question: If I use declares and end up with a Ptr to a NSImage (but not a NSImageMBS) is there any way to cast the Ptr to a NSImageMBS so that I can then use MBS methods on it? ___ Mbsplugins_monkeybreadsoftware.info mailing list mbsplugins@monkeybreadsoftware.info https://ml01.ispgateway.de/mailman/listinfo/mbsplugins_monkeybreadsoftware.info
