Creates a high quality thumbnail from a 4D picture.
The source picture is passed in the sourcePict parameter.
The thumbnail is returned in the thumbnailPict picture variable.
Target dimensions for the thumbnail are specified by targetWidth and targetHeight. These need not be proportional to the original image dimensions; QPix will automatically scale down the image proportionally to fit in the designated target dimensions. This command cannot be used for scaling images up.
Thumbnail pixel depth is specified in the thumbnailDepth parameter. The pixelDepth parameter must be in range of 0..40 (values greater than 32 mean grayscale). If omitted or equal to 0, QPix will use the original pixel depth instead.
The thumbnailOptions optional parameter can be used to specify additional options for the thumbnail creation. The following constants can be compined with bitwise "or".
qpx_ThumbWithProgress | 0x0001 | Display progress dialog during long thumbnail creation operations. |
qpx_ThumbStandardQuality | 0x0004 | Create a standard quality thumbnail. Faster than the default high quality operation. |
Note: This command is a replacement for the old QPx_GetImagePictureThumbnail command. The QPx_GetImagePictureThumbnail command is obsolete and has been renamed to QPxObs_GetImagePictureThumbnail.
