MbufCopyClip

This function copies the source buffer data to the destination buffer, starting at the specified offset. Data outside of the destination buffer is not copied (it is clipped).

If the source buffer depth is greater than that of the destination, the most significant bits are truncated when the data is copied to the destination. If the destination depth is greater than that of the source, the source data is zero or sign-extended (depending on the type of the source) when copied to the destination.

Note, when copying from a non-binary buffer to a binary buffer, all non-zero pixels in the source buffer are represented as ones (1) in the binary buffer. When copying a binary buffer to a buffer of a different depth, each bit is copied into the least-significant bit of a different destination pixel. The remaining bits of the destination pixel are set to 0; to propagate the bit value to all bits, use MimBinarize().

When copying from a floating-point buffer to an integer buffer, the decimal point values are ignored and the most significant bits are truncated.

You can limit this function's results to a region of an image buffer using a region of interest (ROI) set using MbufSetRegion(). The ROI must be defined in raster format (M_RASTER or M_VECTOR_AND_RASTER). An error is generated if the ROI is only in vector format (M_VECTOR). If you specify multiple image buffers with an ROI, results are limited to the portion of the ROIs that intersect.
