AnimationKnob Bitmap Generation Tool for VST developper.
In the VST plugin GUI development, you may need the AnimationKnob bitmaps that has stitched frames. KnobMan is a tool for the creation of the 'Knob' graphic images. The image strip is a continuous frames stitched vertical or horizontal. Though KnobMan is mainly designed for a VST-plugin GUI development, it may be useful if you need a image strip like this.
Functions:
* AnimationKnob bitmap generation using multiple layers.
* Construct Knob design from combination of primitives including imported bitmaps.
* Generated bitmap can be saved as a bmp/png/jpg/gif/tga file.
* Variable output bitmap size independent from original bitmaps.
* Variable output strip length.
* Variable rotate/zoom/offset.
* Color Controls.
* Strictly exact pixel rotation with anti-alias.
* IntelligentAlpha analyze anti-aliased original bitmap and separate
knob part from background.
