imagecolorallocatealpha() behaves identically to imagecolorallocate() with the addition of the transparency parameter alpha.
An image resource, returned by one of the image creation functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor().
Value of red component
Value of green component
Value of blue component
A value between 0
and 127
.
0
indicates completely opaque while
127
indicates completely transparent.
The colors parameters are integers between 0 and 255 or hexadecimals between 0x00 and 0xFF.
<?php
$size = 300;
$image=imagecreatetruecolor($size, $size);
// something to get a white background with black border
$back = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 255);
$border = imagecolorallocate($image, 0, 0, 0);
imagefilledrectangle($image, 0, 0, $size - 1, $size - 1, $back);
imagerectangle($image, 0, 0, $size - 1, $size - 1, $border);
$yellow_x = 100;
$yellow_y = 75;
$red_x = 120;
$red_y = 165;
$blue_x = 187;
$blue_y = 125;
$radius = 150;
// allocate colors with alpha values
$yellow = imagecolorallocatealpha($image, 255, 255, 0, 75);
$red = imagecolorallocatealpha($image, 255, 0, 0, 75);
$blue = imagecolorallocatealpha($image, 0, 0, 255, 75);
// drawing 3 overlapped circle
imagefilledellipse($image, $yellow_x, $yellow_y, $radius, $radius, $yellow);
imagefilledellipse($image, $red_x, $red_y, $radius, $radius, $red);
imagefilledellipse($image, $blue_x, $blue_y, $radius, $radius, $blue);
// don't forget to output a correct header!
header('Content-type: image/png');
// and finally, output the result
imagepng($image);
imagedestroy($image);
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
