DAY 009:_PutImage

[james2464]

Suppose you want to use _PUTIMAGE _SMOOTH to blur an image....more than once...

Would this be possible?  If so, how would you go about it?  Based on my understanding, this seems impossible but I could be wrong.  I attempted it and failed so I thought I'd ask.

I honestly don't think you can, since hardware images aren't alterable, so you're not going to _SMOOTH them.   I think it's basically going to be a onetime process, with you having to write your own smooth routine in case you want to process the same image multiple times.

Thanks.  Yeah I was kind of hoping there was a way to capture the blurred image but this confirms it.   That layer is basically untouchable, and can't be saved and brought back for more rounds of alteration.   Trying to get my mind around this, haha.
