define the significance between bitmap & vector image?

a vector is a line. the computer knows what shape this line is, and you can make it bigger, smaller, whatever, and it doesn't matter. Typefaces are vector graphics- shapes, basically. a bitmap image is a picture. a bunch of dots (pixels), and the computer knows what colour each one is. you cant make these bigger, cos there is no information to put in between the dots. you can make it look a bit bigger though, but if u make a tiny pic huge it'll look awful.\n\nthe text tool uses fonts, like times new roman, and each letter is a shape, not a picture.

It'd help to have  more detailed information. \nWhat does it mean that "pixels are independent?" \nAssuming that pixels are multivariate random variables, having n possible values for each color, the intensity of each component surely is correlated with that of adjacent pixels, I'd suppose.\nNow, what do you mean by "compression result"?\nPut more info. Your problem seems nice to tackle

Vector is drawing, so whatever program you are using you need to draw them images you have and save it as a say vector 'shape'

I'm not entirely certain, but in skimming through the PDF you had attached, it seems to me that "coded for truth" means that the photo is genuine and has not been altered to fit any specific view-point.\n\nHope this helps.

The mouse pointers, animations, and cursors are all bitmaps to be used by windows.  Meaning they are static pictures you cannot change and they were just designed that way.  I've noticed it too.\n\nI always wanted to see one that would flip from side to side depending on where  you are on the screen.

Hi\n\nI'm sure that the other response are good but you need to know that Java has a profesional API used for image processing. This is Java Advanced Imaging API. "The Java Advanced Imaging API is intended to meet the needs of technical (medical, seismological, remote sensing, etc.) as well as commercial imaging (such as document production and photography). The API can benefit all Java developers who want to incorporate imaging into their Java applets and applications."\n\nYOu can also use some open source Libraries, such as JIU.\n\nSee the links below.\n\nI hope this helps,\nCipri

If it is only one image, you can browse to the image location in the properties of the picture box through the form designer. It should support jpeg. Through code you can do:\n\nBitmap b = Image.FromFile("c:&#92;&#92;myfile.jpg") as Bitmap;\npictureBox.Image = b;

You could go to a Kinko's and rent a Mac workstation. They have Illustrator installed.\n\nUsing a vector-based program like Illustrator will give you much better results than a raster-based program like Photoshop. Vector-based programs produce files that are constructed with vector points - they're mathematical formulas that allow your image (bumper sticker, in this instance) to scale infinitely. If you wanted to make a banner out of the same file, it would produce lines/edges that are just as crisp as those on the bumper sticker.\n\nIn a raster-based file, the image is made up of non-scalable pixels. If you scale an image, you'll just get bigger squares and jagged, fuzzy edges.

You probably need to provide a little more detail if you want this question answered.  For instance, what does this "like a picture of a tree that is located on the map" mean?

I asked this a couple weeks ago:\nTo answer your question:\nVector graphics are composed of curves connected by points, mathematically defined. A circle is four curves connected by four points. A rectangle is four curves, connected by four points. (No, that wasn't a typo...they are considered curves even though they're straight lines. No, I don't know why...math and I never really got along all that well.) When you want to make the circle larger or smaller, the mathematical formula is redefined, and the circle keeps it's perfect crisp lines. Creature House Expression, Macromedia Freehand, and CorelDRAW are three examples of vector programs. These programs are considered object oriented because everything you make, even text, is an object that can be manipulated independent of other objects and the background (which can also be an object if you put something there, such as a rectangle covering the page.) You can arrange them so they are in front of each other, in back of each other, stack them, or group them. Vector programs are also sometimes called drawing programs, while programs like Adobe Photoshop and Procreate's Painter are paint, or raster programs.\n\nA raster program constructs what you see on screen by using pixels. When you enlarge the picture, the only way it gets bigger is for the pixels to get bigger too, and you lose the nice edges. So when you work in a raster program your best bet is to make your picture the size at which you'll ultimately be using it, because you will be limited in how much sizing you can actually do. And that is the beauty of working with vectors! You can work on a 4" object and enlarge it to 4' if you want. And it'll look just as good at 4' as it did at 4".\n\nSou

it's a vector! measure of distance - magnitude, and the direction of the vector.

They can.\n\nIf it is a simple static bitmap, then it will make no difference in performance, other then taking a tad longer to boot up in order to load it.\n\nIf you are useing a desktop that uses "Active Desktop", it can make a huge difference.  That was something that came out in '98, and allowed animated icons, and animated backgrounds.  Depending on how "active" they are, it can hamper performance.

Usually you will be happier with JPEG than BMP.\nDoes depend on what you intend to do with it.\n///

You need to apply vectors.

An image when taken by a digital device (digital image) is made up by a grid (normally) of pixels. This represents the fact that the screen they are displayed on is similarly made up of a grid, and the sensors used to capture the image were arranged in a grid. \n\nEach pixel contains values for colour and intensity. It is common that the image will contain details that cannot be detected easily by the human eye, but can be detected by a computer looking at the pixel values. To enhance the image, a program is used to create a new image that takes the old pixel values and alters them (say mutliplies by 10) to make the differences more noticable. \n\nOther enhancements can include adjusting for movement of the camera, smoothing a gritty image, blurring a sharp one, making brighter, making duller, converting to black and white (greyscale) etc. These are mostly matrix operations applied to each original pixel in turn.

Raster:\nThe rectangular area of a display screen actually being used to display images. The raster is slightly smaller than the physical dimensions of the display screen. Also, the raster varies for different resolutions. For example, VGA resolution of 640x480 on a 15-inch monitor produces one raster, whereas SVGA resolution of 1,024x768 produces a slightly different raster. Most monitors are autosizing, meaning that they automatically use the optimal raster depending on the monitor's size and the video adapter's resolution. In addition, most monitors have controls that allow you move the raster, resize it, and even to rotate it. \n\n\nVector:\nIn computer graphics, a line that is defined by its start and end point.\n\n\n\nCheck out this site - http://www.ablesw.com/r2v/rasvect.html

put the image in my picture under my documents.\nhigh light it, on the left side where it says details, it will also give you dimensions of the picture..........resolution
