getAllowThrow()


    public
            static        getAllowThrow() : bool

Return values

insertBitmap()

Insert a 24bit bitmap image in a worksheet.


    public
                    insertBitmap(int $row, int $col, GdImage|string $bitmap[, int $x = 0 ][, int $y = 0 ][, float $scale_x = 1 ][, float $scale_y = 1 ]) : void

Parameters

$row : int: The row we are going to insert the bitmap into
$col : int: The column we are going to insert the bitmap into
$bitmap : GdImage|string: The bitmap filename or GD-image resource
$x : int = 0: the horizontal position (offset) of the image inside the cell
$y : int = 0: the vertical position (offset) of the image inside the cell
$scale_x : float = 1: The horizontal scale
$scale_y : float = 1: The vertical scale

positionImage()

Calculate the vertices that define the position of the image as required by the OBJ record.


    public
                    positionImage(int $col_start, int $row_start, int $x1, int $y1, int $width, int $height) : void

+------------+------------+ | A | B | +-----+------------+------------+ | |(x1,y1) | | | 1 |(A1)._| | | | | | | | | | | | +-----+----| BITMAP |-----+ | | | | | | 2 | |______________. | | | | (B2)| | | | (x2,y2)| +---- +------------+------------+

Example of a bitmap that covers some of the area from cell A1 to cell B2.

Based on the width and height of the bitmap we need to calculate 8 vars: $col_start, $row_start, $col_end, $row_end, $x1, $y1, $x2, $y2. The width and height of the cells are also variable and have to be taken into account. The values of $col_start and $row_start are passed in from the calling function. The values of $col_end and $row_end are calculated by subtracting the width and height of the bitmap from the width and height of the underlying cells. The vertices are expressed as a percentage of the underlying cell width as follows (rhs values are in pixels):

  x1 = X / W *1024
  y1 = Y / H *256
  x2 = (X-1) / W *1024
  y2 = (Y-1) / H *256

  Where:  X is distance from the left side of the underlying cell
          Y is distance from the top of the underlying cell
          W is the width of the cell
          H is the height of the cell

The SDK incorrectly states that the height should be expressed as a percentage of 1024.

Parameters

$col_start : int: Col containing upper left corner of object
$row_start : int: Row containing top left corner of object
$x1 : int: Distance to left side of object
$y1 : int: Distance to top of object
$width : int: Width of image frame
$height : int: Height of image frame
