Introduction
This will guide you through how to rescale images using this library.
A simple rescale
Lets say that you have a BufferedImage instance called tomato that should be rescaled to 100x200. If you want a high quality rescale, you should choose the ResampleOp class:
ResampleOpresampleOp=newResampleOp(100,200);BufferedImagerescaledTomato=resampleOp.filter(tomato,null);
Tip: You might need to increase your maximum heap. This can be done using the -Xmx parameter, such as: java -Xmx512m MyJavaClass
Using Unsharpen Filter
Let's improve the quality a bit more adding a unsharpen filter to the final image. This will remove some of blur, that a rescale operation creates.
ResampleOpresampleOp=newResampleOp(100,200);resampleOp.setUnsharpenMask(AdvancedResizeOp.UnsharpenMask.Normal);BufferedImagerescaledTomato=resampleOp.filter(tomato,null);
Adding a listener
If your tomato image was very large, this might take some time. The following code add a change listener so the user can see that the computer is actually is working.
ResampleOpresampleOp=newResampleOp(100,200);resampleOp.setUnsharpenMask(AdvancedResizeOp.UnsharpenMask.Normal);resampleOp.addProgressListener(newProgressListener(){publicvoidnotifyProgress(floatfraction){System.out.printf("Still working - %f percent %n",fraction*100);}});BufferedImagerescaledTomato=resampleOp.filter(tomato,null);
