image_surface...al_properties(3)

✨ NAME ✨

Okay so welcome to the Arcan Lua API, bestie 💖 — this page is all about image_surface_initial_properties, which pulls up a table describing the initial storage state of whatever object you point it at. Cute, right? 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

proptbl
image_surface_initial_properties( vid )

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the tea ☕: this function is literally just an alias for image_surface_initial, and it's only still here for legacy reasons — like that one friend who refuses to leave the group chat 😭. Please go see image_surface_initial instead, fr fr. No cap, that's the one you actually want. 💅

🍓 EXAMPLE 🍓

Here's how it looks in action, bestie — go off 👑

function image_surface_initial_properties0()
      a = load_image("test.png");
      resize_image(a, 32, 32);
      iprop = image_surface_initial_properties(a);
      cprop = image_surface_properties(a);
      print(string.format("initial_w: %d, inital_h: %d, current_w: %d, current_h: %d",
            iprop.width, iprop.height, cprop.width, cprop.height));
end

(and yes, inital_h is spelled exactly like that in the original — not me, I don't make the rules 🙈)
