The /drawcopy command copies part of a picture to a different position in the same window or to another window.

Synopsis

/drawcopy -ihmnt <@win> [color] <x y w h> <@win> <x y [w h]>

Switches

• -t - indicates that you have specified the [color] RGB value as a transparent color in the source bitmap
• -m - changes the stretch mode quality when the picture is resized
• -i - draws in inverse mode
• -h - highlights the windows icon if it is minimized
• -n - prevents the display from being updated immediately
• -r - indicates that the color is in RGB format

Parameters

• <@win> - the window's name to copy from
• [color] - if -t is used, the RGB color used for transparency
• <x y w h> - portion to copy
• <@win> - the window's name to copy to
• <x y [w h]> - the coordinate where to draw, if [w h] are specified, the picture is squeed/stretched to fit, they can be negative value to get a mirror effect:

-@win has a bitmap area of 16*16 pixels containing this picture: File:drawpic&copy negative.png

-@win1 has a bitmap area of 48*16 pixels

-If you copy the whole @win over @win1 at coordinate 16,0 you would get (drawcopy @win 0 0 16 16 @win1 16 0 16 16): File:drawpic&copy negative1.png

-Now we use a negative width of -16 to flip vertically the bitmap, the bitmap will be drawn at 16 - 15 = 1 so that after the flip, the last pixel of the bitmap on the 'x' axis is at the 'x' coordinate (16 in this example) (drawcopy @win 0 0 16 16 @win1 16 0 -16 16): File:drawpic&copy negative2.png
