The transformation features during the decoding are as follows: </p> <ul><li id="GUID-7FB92047-2217-580B-B201-EFCC9CA627B8"><p> <b>Clipping : </b>  </p> <p>A rectangular region of an image is chosen and it is clipped for decoding. The decoded output is either a native bitmap (<xref href="GUID-683A1D42-2764-3EB7-BD19-9E12559199AB.dita"><apiname>CFbsBitmap</apiname></xref>) or a pixel buffer (e.g YUV 4:2:2 frames). </p> </li> <li id="GUID-1C14DD15-3EE9-53F7-946B-B48FAA7C23CB"><p> <b> Rotation / Mirroring : </b>  </p> <p>The functionality in rotation are 90º increments, mirroring over the horizontal axis, mirroring over the vertical axis, and combination of these features. </p> </li> <li id="GUID-6E856862-0EE7-59EA-A354-CEA4C2C840F4"><p> <b>Scaling : </b>  </p> <p>In scaling only downscaling is supported during the decode operation. At present the supported scaling coefficients for an image are ½, ¼ or ⅛ of the original image size. </p> </li> </ul> <p>In transformation of an image during decode you can choose more than one operation. For example you can choose clipping and scaling, or clipping and rotation, or all the three combinations of clipping, scaling and rotation. </p> <p> <b>Note:-</b> When you want to clip and scale an image you need to follow this order: </p> <ul><li id="GUID-41626AF1-F425-5965-B238-F5B94A0EA627"><p>First you need to clip the image. </p> </li> <li id="GUID-056D21EA-6627-5FA6-848D-ED516C332CE6"><p>Then you can scale the image. </p> </li> </ul> <p>This order is defined because if you scale an image and do clipping the output will not be a resource friendly output. </p> <p>The enhanced feature of the encoder is currently supported by the Symbian JPEG codec and PNG codec. The transformation feature during the encoding is: </p> <ul><li id="GUID-667B9F91-729B-5B4B-B83D-B3EC4219E297"><p>Imaging Frameworks provides support for rotation and mirroring while encode bitmaps or YUV pixel data, contained in a memory descriptor, to the data format. </p> </li> </ul> <p><b>Setup and Configuration Requirements</b> </p> <p> <b>Setting up the right decoder</b>  </p> <p>In order to allow the decoder to advertise the extended operations (cropping, rotation, horizontal flipping and vertical flipping) use <xref href="GUID-8F2953B2-E64E-3D8B-B30B-B35B373368D4.dita#GUID-8F2953B2-E64E-3D8B-B30B-B35B373368D4/GUID-350DA091-17AB-3455-BE35-10A4ABA34706"><apiname>CImageDecoder::TOptions()</apiname></xref> and select the option for <xref href="GUID-8F2953B2-E64E-3D8B-B30B-B35B373368D4.dita#GUID-8F2953B2-E64E-3D8B-B30B-B35B373368D4/GUID-6DA07559-7DDC-32A9-9E09-D557348D46DE"><apiname>CImageDecoder::FileNewL()</apiname></xref> and <xref href="GUID-8F2953B2-E64E-3D8B-B30B-B35B373368D4.dita#GUID-8F2953B2-E64E-3D8B-B30B-B35B373368D4/GUID-00FB83E8-3759-32BE-B6E8-6F04EC60A909"><apiname>CImageDecoder::DataNewL()</apiname></xref>.
