Rotate Bitmap (Rectangle) While Maintining Area

Ho开发者_如何学JAVAw can I rotate an Bitmap a given number of degrees while maintaining the area of the original bitmap. ie, what I rotate a bitmap of Width:100,Height:200, my end result will be a bigger image but the rotated portion will still have an area of 100*200

The graphics transform function is perfect for this. Create a new bitmap of the size you want, create a graphics object based off that bitmap, apply the transform then draw onto the canvas (graphics.drawimage(original_image)).

Here is a much better example than I can give at this time.

And Bobpowell.net is a site I usually reference back to for great explanations on transforms.

I'm confused by this question. Rotation doesn't change scale, so your rectangle will always be 100 x 200 pixels (within the margin of error caused by bitmap rendering). Are you asking how to find the minimum bounding box that will hold a 100 x 200 pixel image rotated at an arbitrary angle? That's been answered elsewhere on Stack Overflow.
