  stage or Authorware display icons into various image file formats,
  including JPEG, GIF, TIFF, BMP, PICT, PSD, animated GIF and many more.
- Import image files into Director image cast members or lingo image
  objects. The Xtra can read from more than 30 different image file
  formats.
- Perform a screen capture into a Director image cast member or file.
- Convert an image from one format to another.
- Change the color depth of an image to 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 or 32 bits with
  palette remapping and dithering support.
- Resize, scale, magnify and minify images.
- Flip, flop, roll, chop, crop and shave images.
- Rotate and shear images.
- Perform image processing effects: blur, sharpen, oil paint, charcoal
  paint, implode, explode, motion blur, morph, shade, spread, swirl,
  wave, raise, edge, emboss, solarize and more.
- Perform image processing enhancements: contrast, modulate, reduce
  noise, normalize and more.
- Get and set the image pixels and background color.
- Access and manipulate image frames  layers.
- Flatten or coalesce images with multiple frames  layers.
- Set the image transparency.

DirectImage Xtra is Shockwave safe, so it can also be used with
Shockwave 7 and above and when Director safety features are turned on.
When the Xtra is in safe mode it can import and export image files
through a built-in file selection dialog box from/to anywhere on the
local machine, or directly from/to the Shockwave support folder
(DswMedia folder) without displaying a dialog box.

An auto downloadable Shockwave safe package of DirectImage Xtra is also
available. It is a compressed version of the Xtra that can be downloaded
automatically from a web site to the user's local machine whenever
needed, and once installed provides Shockwave applications on the web
with the advanced imaging capabilities that the Xtra provides.

The Xtra is available for Director 5 and above, Authorware 4 and
above, and is compatible with Windows 9X and newer (including 2000, ME,
NT, XP) as well as MacOS 8, 9 and X.
