Parameter

Description

name

Required. The ColdFusion image on which this operation is performed.

shx

Required. The multiplier by which coordinates are shifted in the positive x axis direction as a function of the y coordinate.

shy

Required. the multiplier by which coordinates are shifted in the positive y axis direction as a function of the x coordinate.

Usage

For each pixel (x,y) of the destination, the source value at the fractional subpixel position (x',y') is constructed by means of an interpolation object and written to the destination.

If the direction parameter is equal to horizontal, x' = (x - y*shear) and y' = y.

If the direction parameter is equal to vertical, x' = x and y' = (y - x*shear).

Use the ImageSetAntialiasing function to improve the quality of the rendered image.
