I have an image in the image view. When user taps on the image, it makes a part of the image blur. This part is working fine (as expected). But, if the part if already blurred then I do not want it to be blurred further. Can you give me a clue on how it can be achieved ? Consider any general image.
Either keep the original image and the blurred image separately as Alexander suggests, or keep a mask that lets you track what parts of the image have already been blurred, and mask away the already-blurred areas before applying your blur filter again.
Does the image have to blur by being touched or can it just look like it is? What if you loaded the original image on top of a blurred version of the image and erased the top layer on touch? Kind of renders your blurring function useless though.
It's a pretty hacky way to do it, but unless you want to keep track of a list of every pixel that was altered like Alexander said, I can't think of another way. That way you can just apply the blur to the already unaffected ones.

What is the best approach to display a cropped/masked image in Flutter?
Lets say I have one image with a mask (eg. an irregular star shape with transparent background) and the other image which I want to mask with this star, so that only the part inside the star of original image would be rendered.
I'm aiming for something like PorterDuffXfermode on Android (similar question here - Android how to apply mask on ImageView?).
In case of simple mask shapes is going the RenderClipOval way a good approach?
I would just paint it using a CustomPainter, setting the Paint.BlendMode on the Paint you pass to the method when you paint the image.
See https://docs.flutter.io/flutter/dart-ui/Canvas/drawImageRect.html and https://docs.flutter.io/flutter/dart-ui/Paint/blendMode.html and https://docs.flutter.io/flutter/widgets/CustomPaint-class.html.
We are developing an app where we need to crop an image according to the selecting object area. User will draw a line and we need to select the object and crop it .This crop need to be like the app: YourMoji
So far we have tried to get the color of the pixels along the line and then comparing those with the color of every pixel in the image and making a path from it to clip the image. But the almost going no where.
Is it possible through this way to crop an image or we are going in the wrong way? Can anyone provide a way to do this Or suggest a way to modify the way we have worked so far? Any advice and suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
I guess what you want is the image segmentation algorithm called Graph Cut.
Here are two Github repositories, hope these would help:
GraphCut
GrabCutIOS
I'm not exactly clued up on image manipulation, but the first algorithm that comes to mind is something like this:
Take the average of the pixels in the line (as you have)
Since you appear to want faces, you might want to weight reds and blues over green. Not much green in faces of any skin tone.
For each pixel, if the colour is within a given threshold outside of your selected average, remove it / make transparent.
Perhaps the closer to the original line (or centroid), the less strict the threshold becomes.
I'd then provide the user with some tools for:
Sensitivity: how large the threshold is
Eraser: to remove parts of the image that your algorithm missed
Paintbrush: to replace parts of the image that your algorithm incorrectly removed.
Frosted Glass Effect
I'm thinking of how to approach this logically..
So we take the background image ( for example )
Then, we want to add our frosted glass button to this image. Here's how it should look..
Now I know I cannot programatically blur the background image of the button, so I'll to try and do it with two images.. Background.png and Backgorund_Blurred.png.
Now, the frosted glass effect will happen on animated objects. So, as they move across the screen, it should appear that it is blurring the background image behind it, however, to achieve this I can only think of one way. But doing so is beyond my current capability.
It would have to be a background_blurred image for the UIButton for example. No scaled in any way, and the exact same size as the normal background. Then, I would have to take the buttons relative position on the normal background and append the background_blurred of the button to suit.
My first question; is this possible?
Second question; is there an easier approach?
Lastly, I've added an image to make sense of the relative position theory.
Check out the FXBlur library, it'll let you blur images/views.. I've used it successfully and sounds like it'll do what you want.
I think having two images for these assets maybe easier, but having the views blur may be better in the long run as you wouldn't have to worry about updating the images for different resolutions in the future or care about how big the button is/will be.. Also if you want to do this with more images it'll turn into a mess with all the different images to manage.. The library is simple to use, with one call you'll have a blurred image/view..
Hello: Currently in my project, I'm using OBShapedButton to process touches on a lot of objects that overlap (it's a map with each territory its own separate object). Basically, this library prevents a touch from being processed on a transparent point on the given view.
I'm attempting to add a border effect to just the edges of the opaque part of the UIImage (and adding a semi-transparent overlay above that). Something to the effect of this:
Which can be simplified to this (example of one image):
I am currently using MGImageUtilities to color in the opaque parts of territories using this line:
[territory setImage:[[territory image] imageTintedWithColor:tint]];
The problem is that I'm not sure how to just color the borders (which can be any shape). I've looked at this link already, but haven't been able to come up with anything.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Terribly hacky, but use MGImageUtilities' UIImage+ProportionalFill with scale resizing to create a slightly larger image, UIImage+Tint to red, and stack below.
The library you are using doesn't actually specify a shape layer. It uses alpha values from the PNGs that you give it.
Could you use a different 'highlighted' or 'selected' PNG that adds the border effect you are looking for?
Otherwise, it you will have to generate a UIBezierPath from your PNG image, which sounds like a very computationally intensive operation. At that point, I might question whether this library meets your needs.
I have a viewController with a UIImageView. The imageView is to be loaded with a different random picture from a given array when the viewController is displayed. Above the UIImageView I would like to implement a filter similar to one I found in photoshop but with my own custom modification for a clear window to the image below. Basically, what I am looking to do is display a random image behind a blurred filter but I would like a part of the blur filter to have a custom shaped window to the image below it where the image can be seen clearly. The rest of the image would still be blurred out. I have read apples documentation for applying filters to images but none of them suit my needs. Pretty new to development and haven't written any code for this feature yet. I'm more looking to see if it can be done and if so, could you point me in the direction of where I can research to find the answers I'm looking for? cheers!
I would recommend that you take the input image, pass it through a CIGaussianBlur, then I'd draw the image applying an image mask (using CIBlendWithMask or a CGPath.)
