image()

   
Examples  
PImage b; 
// Images must be in the "data" directory to load correctly 
b = loadImage("laDefense.jpg"); 
image(b, 0, 0); 
PImage b; 
// Images must be in the "data" directory to load correctly 
b = loadImage("laDefense.jpg"); 
image(b, 0, 0); 
image(b, 0, 0, width/2, height/2); 
Description   Diplays images to the screen. The images must be in the sketch's "data" directory to load correctly. Select "Add file..." from the "Sketch" menu to add the image. Processing currently works with GIF, JPEG, and Targa images. The color of an image may be modified with the tint() function and if a GIF has transparency, it will maintain its transparency. The img parameter specifies the image to display and the x and y parameters define the location of the image from its upper-left corner. The image is displayed at its original size unless the width and height parameters specify a different size. The imageMode() function changes the way the parameters work. A call to imageMode(CORNERS) will change the width and height parameters to define the x and y values of the opposite corner of the image.
