I have this code snippet. I don't understand the Matrix.preScale
and the Bitmap.createBitmap
with the matrix passed. What does it mean? Is there any simulation website to understand matrix calculation? Could you give me some websites about mathematics used for graphics? I'm sorry I'm not good at mathematics. :)
public Bitmap createReflectedImages(final Bitmap originalImage) {
final int width = originalImage.getWidth();
final int height = originalImage.getHeight();
final Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
matrix.preScale(1, -1);
final Bitmap reflectionImage = Bitmap.createBitmap(originalImage, 0, (int) (height * imageReflectionRatio),
width, (int) (height - height * imageReflectionRatio), matrix, false);
final Bitmap bitmapWithReflection = Bitmap.createBitmap(width, (int) (height + height * imageReflectionRatio + 400),
Config.ARGB_8888);
final Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bitmapWithReflection);
canvas.drawBitmap(originalImage, 0, 0, null);
final Paint deafaultPaint = new Paint();
deafaultPaint.setColor(color.transparent);
canvas.drawBitmap(reflectionImage, 0, height + reflectionGap, null);
final Paint paint = new Paint();
final LinearGradient shader = new LinearGradient(0, originalImage.getHeight(), 0,
bitmapWithReflection.getHeight() + reflectionGap, 0x70ffffff, 0x00ffffff, TileMode.CLAMP);
paint.setShader(shader);
paint.setXfermode(new PorterDuffXfermode(Mode.DST_IN));
canvas.drawRect(0, height, width, bitmapWithReflection.getHeight() + reflectionGap, paint);
return bitmapWithReflection;
}
