.SH DESCRIPTION
The QPNGImagePacker class creates well-compressed PNG animations.
.PP
By using transparency, QPNGImagePacker allows you to build a PNG image from a sequence of QImages.
.PP
Images are added using packImage().
.PP
See also Graphics Classes and Image Processing Classes.
.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
.SH "QPNGImagePacker::QPNGImagePacker ( QIODevice * iod, int storage_depth, int conversionflags )"
Creates an image packer that writes PNG data to IO device \fIiod\fR using a \fIstorage_depth\fR bit encoding (use 8 or 32, depending on the desired quality and compression requirements).
.PP
If the image needs to be modified to fit in a lower-resolution result (e.g. converting from 32-bit to 8-bit), use the \fIconversionflags\fR to specify how you'd prefer this to happen.
.PP
See also Qt::ImageConversionFlags.
.SH "bool QPNGImagePacker::packImage ( const QImage & img )"
Adds the image \fIimg\fR to the PNG animation, analyzing the differences between this and the previous image to improve compression.
.SH "void QPNGImagePacker::setPixelAlignment ( int x )"
Aligns pixel differences to \fIx\fR pixels. For example, using 8 can
improve playback on certain hardware. Normally the default of
1-pixel alignment (i.e. no alignment) gives better compression and
performance.
