Examples

ui_bitmap_create("test", 4, 2)
ui_bitmap_draw("test",<<%code%
inner_Rect(0, 0, 4, 2)
text("Thin", .75, .25,"center")
text("Medium", 2, .25,"center")
text("Thick", 3.25, .25,"center")
draw_box(.25, .5, 1, 1, "SINGLE", "white", "black", 1, "SHADOW", 1, "gray")
draw_box(1.50, .5, 1, 1, "SINGLE", "white", "black", 1, "SHADOW", 2, "gray")
draw_box(2.75, .5, 1, 1, "SINGLE", "white", "black", 1, "SHADOW", 3, "gray")
%code%)
ui_dlg_box("","{image=test}")

Drawing a gradient with all shades of blue.

dim hlen as N
dim steps as N
hlen = 1
vlen = 4
steps = 256
ui_bitmap_create("foo", hlen, vlen)
ui_bitmap_Draw("foo",<<%code%
for i = 0 to (steps - 1)
   y1 = (vlen * i) / steps

y2 = (vlen * (i + 1)) / steps

set_brush("#0, 0, " + i)

inner_rect(0, y1, hlen, y2)
next
%code%)
ui_dlg_box("","{image=foo}")
