imagecopymergegray — Copy and merge part of an image with gray scale

Descrizione

imagecopymergegray(
    GdImage $dst_image,
    GdImage $src_image,
    int $dst_x,
    int $dst_y,
    int $src_x,
    int $src_y,
    int $src_width,
    int $src_height,
    int $pct
): bool

imagecopymergegray() copy a part of src_image onto dst_image starting at the x,y coordinates src_x, src_y with a width of src_width and a height of src_height. The portion defined will be copied onto the x,y coordinates, dst_x and dst_y.

This function is identical to imagecopymerge() except that when merging it preserves the hue of the source by converting the destination pixels to gray scale before the copy operation.

Elenco dei parametri

dst_image: Risorsa link dell'immagine di destinazione
src_image: Risorsa link dell'immagine originale
dst_x: x-coordinate of destination point.
dst_y: y-coordinate of destination point.
src_x: x-coordinate of source point.
src_y: y-coordinate of source point.
src_width: Larghezza dell'originale.
src_height: Altezza dell'originale.
pct: The src_image will be changed to grayscale according to pct where 0 is fully grayscale and 100 is unchanged. When pct = 100 this function behaves identically to imagecopy() for pallete images, except for ignoring alpha components, while it implements alpha transparency for true colour images.

Valori restituiti

Restituisce true in caso di successo, false in caso di fallimento.

Example #1 imagecopymergegray() usage

<?php
// Create image instances
$dest = imagecreatefromgif('php.gif');
$src = imagecreatefromgif('php.gif');

// Copy and merge - Gray = 20%

In addition to code_couturier too: his code will produce blue pictures, because the value he uses to set the pixel color (the code is incomplete: I first thought it should be $gray) is between 0 and 255, which corresponds to blue levels.

To convert the picture to grayscale, use the following code:

<?php
    // replace with your files
    $originalFileName    = "colorPicture.jpg";
    $destinationFileName = "bwPicture.jpg";
    
    // create a copy of the original image
    // works with jpg images
    // fell free to adapt to other formats ;)
    $fullPath = explode(".",$originalFileName);
    $lastIndex = sizeof($fullPath) - 1;
    $extension = $fullPath[$lastIndex];
    if (preg_match("/jpg|jpeg|JPG|JPEG/", $extension)){
        $sourceImage = imagecreatefromjpeg($originalFileName);
    }

    // get image dimensions
    $img_width  = imageSX($sourceImage);
    $img_height = imageSY($sourceImage);

    // convert to grayscale
    // note: this will NOT affect your original image, unless
    // originalFileName and destinationFileName are the same
    for ($y = 0; $y <$img_height; $y++) { 
        for ($x = 0; $x <$img_width; $x++) { 
            $rgb = imagecolorat($sourceImage, $x, $y);
            $red   = ($rgb >> 16) & 0xFF;
            $green = ($rgb >> 8)  & 0xFF;
            $blue  = $rgb & 0xFF;

            $gray = round(.299*$red + .587*$green + .114*$blue);
            
            // shift gray level to the left
            $grayR = $gray << 16;   // R: red
            $grayG = $gray << 8;    // G: green
            $grayB = $gray;         // B: blue
            
            // OR operation to compute gray value
            $grayColor = $grayR | $grayG | $grayB;

            // set the pixel color
            imagesetpixel ($sourceImage, $x, $y, $grayColor);
            imagecolorallocate ($sourceImage, $gray, $gray, $gray);
        }
    }

    // copy pixel values to new file buffer
    $destinationImage = ImageCreateTrueColor($img_width, $img_height);
    imagecopy($destinationImage, $sourceImage, 0, 0, 0, 0, $img_width, $img_height);

    // create file on disk
    imagejpeg($destinationImage, $destinationFileName);
    
    // destroy temp image buffers
    imagedestroy($destinationImage);    
    imagedestroy($sourceImage);
?>

Copy-paste, replace the file names on the top and there you go (picture files must be in same folder as this script. If not, you will have to do your own file management).

This function don't work properly for me on trucolerimages (have not tried yet for other types) it jsut produce a part-grayscale image, and some color get mesed up.
I found a workaround here:

Advanced Image Editing Under the GD Library
Colorizing
Colorizing images is fairly easy to do. The easiest way to colorize an image is fairly simple to grasp. Create an image of the same dimensions and fill that image with the color you want to change it to. This new image is then placed on top of the older image, giving it a colorized look.

<?php 
function imagecolorize(&$im,&$col,$pct) { 
    // Get the image's width 
    $im_w = imagesx($im);  
    // Get the image's height 
    $im_h = imagesy($im);  
    // Set a pixel with the color, so we can get it easily 
    $setpixel = imagesetpixel($im,$im_w,0,$col);  
    // Get the color 
    $index = imagecolorat($im,$im_w,0);  
    // Find the color in the index 
    $rgb = imagecolorsforindex($im,$index);  
    // Get the red value 
    $r = $rgb["red"]; 
    // Get the green value 
    $g = $rgb["green"];  
    // Get the blue value 
    $b = $rgb["blue"];  
    // Create the layover 
    $layover = imagecreate($im_w,$im_h);  
    // Allocate the color on this image 
    $color = imagecolorallocate($layover,$r,$g,$b);  
    // Fill the image with the new color (this really isn't needed) 
    $fill = imagefill($layover,0,0,$color);  
    // Merge the layover on top of the older image 
    $merge = imagecopymerge($im,$layover,0,0,0,0,$im_w,$im_h,$pct); 
    imagedestroy($layover); // Destroy the layover 
} 
?> 

If we use a blue layover RGB(0,0,255), we get this result:

if you use black or gray, its not perfekt, but better than nothing ;)

grayscale conversion is built-in with imagefilter(). 

<?php
     /* other code */

     $image = imagecreatefromjpeg('some.jpg');
     imagefilter($image, IMG_FILTER_GRAYSCALE);

     /* other code (ie save) */

     imagedestroy($image);

     /* other code */
?>

you could create the sepia effect by the following:

<?php
     /* other code */

     $image = imagecreatefromjpeg('some.jpg');
     imagefilter($image, IMG_FILTER_GRAYSCALE);
     imagefilter($image, IMG_FILTER_COLORIZE, 112, 66, 20);
     //Wikipedia RGB definition of sepia

     /* other code (ie save) */

     imagedestroy($image);

     /* other code */
?>

in addition to code_couturier - try this formula to calculate gray-value (luminance) in his "more exact" way:

$gray = round(.299*$red + .587*$green + .114*$blue);
