I'm trying to save a screenshot of a part of the screen with all views and layers merged. The only way I know how to do this is with the code below.
The code below creates an 80x80 square, but with a top left corner at 0,0.
How can I cut a smaller rectangle out of a full page screenshot? For example I have a 320x480 full window screenshot, but I only need an 80x80 square centered at 160,240?
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(smallView.frame.size);
[appDelegate.window.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];
UIImage *screenshot = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
Thank you!
after getting the screenshot image crop the required part using this
CGImageRef imageRef = CGImageCreateWithImageInRect([screenshot CGImage], cropRect);
UIImage *result = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:imageRef];
CGImageRelease(imageRef);
Untested suggestion...
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(smallView.frame.size);
[appDelegate.window.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];
CGRect cropRect = UIImage *screenshot = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
CGRectMake(160.0,240.0,smallView.frame.size.width,smallView.frame.size.height);
CGImageRef croppedImageRef = CGImageCreateWithImageInRect(screenshot.CGImage,cropRect);
UIImage *croppedScreenshot = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:croppedImageRef];
CGImageRelease(croppedImageRef);
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
