# Cropping (outputting part) of an image
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
For graphical objects with pictures (OBJ_BITMAP_LABEL and OBJ_BITMAP), MQL5 allows you to enable the display of a part of the image specified by the property [OBJPROP_BMPFILE](/en/book/applications/objects/objects_bitmap). To do this, you need to set the size of the object ([OBJPROP_XSIZE and OBJPROP_YSIZE](/en/book/applications/objects/objects_width_height)) smaller than the image size and set the coordinates of the upper left corner of the visible rectangular fragment using the integer properties OBJPROP_XOFFSET and OBJPROP_YOFFSET. These two properties set, respectively, the indent along X and Y in pixels from the left and top borders of the original image.

Outputting part of an image to an object
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Typically, a similar technique using part of a large image is used for toolbar icons (sets of buttons, menus, etc.): a single file with all the icons provides more efficient resource consumption than many small files with individual icons.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The test script ObjectBitmapOffset.mq5 creates several panels with pictures (OBJ_BITMAP_LABEL), and for all of them the same graphic file is specified in the OBJPROP_BMPFILE property. However, due to the OBJPROP_XOFFSET and OBJPROP_YOFFSET properties, all objects display different parts of the image.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
void SetupBitmap(const int i, const int x, const int y, const int size,
|
|||
|
|
const string imageOn, const string imageOff = NULL)
|
|||
|
|
{
|
|||
|
|
// create an object
|
|||
|
|
const string name = ObjNamePrefix + "Tool-" + (string)i;
|
|||
|
|
ObjectCreate(0, name, OBJ_BITMAP_LABEL, 0, 0, 0);
|
|||
|
|
ObjectSetInteger(0, name, OBJPROP_CORNER, CORNER_RIGHT_UPPER);
|
|||
|
|
ObjectSetInteger(0, name, OBJPROP_ANCHOR, ANCHOR_RIGHT_UPPER);
|
|||
|
|
// position and size
|
|||
|
|
ObjectSetInteger(0, name, OBJPROP_XDISTANCE, x);
|
|||
|
|
ObjectSetInteger(0, name, OBJPROP_YDISTANCE, y);
|
|||
|
|
ObjectSetInteger(0, name, OBJPROP_XSIZE, size);
|
|||
|
|
ObjectSetInteger(0, name, OBJPROP_YSIZE, size);
|
|||
|
|
// offset in the original image, according to which the i-th fragment is read
|
|||
|
|
ObjectSetInteger(0, name, OBJPROP_XOFFSET, i * size);
|
|||
|
|
ObjectSetInteger(0, name, OBJPROP_YOFFSET, 0);
|
|||
|
|
// generic image (file)
|
|||
|
|
ObjectSetString(0, name, OBJPROP_BMPFILE, imageOn);
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
void OnStart()
|
|||
|
|
{
|
|||
|
|
const int icon = 46; // size of one icon
|
|||
|
|
for(int i = 0; i < 7; ++i) // loop through the icons in the file
|
|||
|
|
{
|
|||
|
|
SetupBitmap(i, 10, 10 + i * icon, icon,
|
|||
|
|
"\\Files\\MQL5Book\\icons-322-46.bmp");
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
}
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|

|

The original image contains several small icons 46 x 46 pixels each. The script "cuts" them out one by one and places them vertically at the right edge of the window.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|

The following shows a generic file (/Files/MQL5Book/icons-322-46.bmp), and what happened on the chart.
