Detailed Description

The ImageObject component provides a hardware-independent image representation. On top of displaying the image and returning data from it, this component also contains tools to transform the image and direct access to the pixel data.

In this sample, the load method is enacted with a button to select an image from the device, with the height property displaying information about the image once it has been loaded.

App {
    id: app
    width: 400
    height: 640

    ColumnLayout {
        anchors {
            fill: parent
            margins: 10
        }

        ImageObject {
            id: imageObject

            onUrlChanged: {
                console.log("url:", url);
            }

            onImageChanged: {
                console.log("image:", image);
            }
        }

        Text {
            text: imageObject.height
            color: "blue"
            font.bold: true
        }

        Button {
            text: "Load"
            onClicked: {
                loadDialog.open();
            }
        }

        Image {
            fillMode: Image.PreserveAspectFit
            source: imageObject.url
            horizontalAlignment: Image.AlignHCenter
            verticalAlignment: Image.AlignVCenter
            cache: false
        }
    }

    FileDialog {
        id: loadDialog

        title: "Load Image"

        selectMultiple: false

Property Documentation

asynchronous : bool

If set to true, the image can be fetched from a network URL. Setting this to true also handles token-based authentication for secure images.

ImageObject {
    id: imgObject
    asynchronous: true
    onImageChanged: {
        imgObject.save(imageObjectSaveUrl);
        imgFromImageObject.source = "";
        imgFromImageObject.source = AppFramework.resolvedPathUrl(imageObjectSaveUrl);
    }
}

autoTransform : bool

If set to true, honors the Orientation tag on the EXIF metadata within the JPEG image and appropriately rotates the image on load. This EXIF data can be retrieved using ExifInfo. The default value is false, meaning no automatic transformation occurs on load. If set to true, upon calling the load method it will update the EXIF data of the image so it reflects the orientation of the image after the rotation has been applied.

This property only functions using JPEG images.

Item {
    ImageObject {
        id: imgObject
        Layout.fillWidth: true
        autoTransform: false
        asynchronous: true
        onLoaded: {
            displayImage(imgObject, localImageUrl);
        }
    }

    CheckBox {
        id: autoTransformBox
        checked: false
        onCheckedChanged: {
            if (autoTransformBox.checked) {
                imgObject.autoTransform = true;
            } else {
                imgObject.autoTransform = false;
            }
        }
    }

    Button {
        id: loadImageBtn
        text: "Load From File Path"

        onClicked: {
            imgObject.load(documentDialog.fileUrl);
        }
    }
}

[read-only] availableReadFormats : QStringList

Returns the image formats supported by the image reader.

[read-only] availableWriteFormats : QStringList

Returns the image formats supported by the image writer.

[read-only] bitPlaneCount : int

Returns the number of bit planes in the image. The number of bit planes is the number of bits of color and transparency information for each pixel.

[read-only] byteCount : int

Returns the number of bytes occupied by the image data.

[read-only] canPasteFromClipboard : bool

Returns true if there is an image in the clipboard that can be pasted to the ImageObject instance. Otherwise, returns false.

[read-only] depth : int

Returns the depth of the image. The image depth is the number of bits used to store a single pixel, also called bits per pixel (bpp).

[read-only] empty : bool

Returns true if the given image file does not exist. Otherwise, returns false.

[read-only] exifInfo : ExifInfo

Returns the ExifInfo metadata of the image.

[read-only] format : ImageFormat

Returns the format of the image. Informed by the ImageFormat enum.

[read-only] hasAlphaChannel : bool

Returns true if the image has a format that supports the alpha channel.

[read-only] height : int

Returns the height of the image, in pixels.

image : QImage

Returns the image itself.

[read-only] size : size

Returns the width and height of the image, in pixels.

[read-only] textKeys : QStringList

Returns the text keys for the image.

[read-only] textValues : object

Extracts and displays the key text associated with the image, through either PNG tEXt chunks or JPEG COM markers.

Depending on the file type, this will display differently. A PNG tEXt chunk contains key / value pairs, and so would return separately, as 'key="Name"' and 'value="Bruce", while a JPEG COM marker is a comment, and will return them in the format 'Name: Bruce'.

Windows devices are unable to view or edit PNG tEXt chunks or JPEG COM markers without third party software, due to a limitation of Windows Explorer. This property will still work on WIndows devices, however.

[read-only] url : url

Returns the url of the image.

[read-only] width : int

Returns the width of the image, in pixels.

Signal Documentation

imageContentChanged()

Signal emitted when the content of the image has been changed.

Note: The corresponding handler is onImageContentChanged.

loaded()

Signal emitted when an asynchronous load of an image object from a network request or asynchronous image provider completes. This signal is also emitted when the autoTransform property is set to true, because all automatic transforms on JPEG images are asynchronous.

Note: The corresponding handler is onLoaded.

textChanged()

Signal emitted when the embedded text in the image has been changed.

Note: The corresponding handler is onTextChanged.
