Method

VipsImagereduce

Declaration [src]

int
vips_reduce (
  VipsImage* in,
  VipsImage** out,
  double hshrink,
  double vshrink,
  ...
)

Description [src]

Optional arguments:

  • kernel: VipsKernel to use to interpolate (default: lanczos3)
  • gap: reducing gap to use (default: 0.0)

Reduce in by a pair of factors with a pair of 1D kernels. This will not work well for shrink factors greater than three.

Set gap to speed up reducing by having vips_shrink() to shrink with a box filter first. The bigger gap, the closer the result to the fair resampling. The smaller gap, the faster resizing. The default value is 0.0 (no optimization).

This is a very low-level operation: see vips_resize() for a more convenient way to resize images.

This operation does not change xres or yres. The image resolution needs to be updated by the application.

See also: vips_shrink(), vips_resize(), vips_affine().

This method is not directly available to language bindings.

Parameters

hshrink double
 

Horizontal shrink.

vshrink double
 

Vertical shrink.

NULL-terminated list of optional named arguments.

Return value

Returns: int
 

0 on success, -1 on error.
