MergeEx

function MergeRegEx(F, B, M: TColor32): TColor32;

procedure MergeMemEx(F: TColor32; var B: TColor32; M: TColor32);

Description

Merges the foreground color with the background color using alpha of the foreground color scaled by the master alpha value M. Alpha-Channels are also merged.

SA = 1 - (1 - (M * FA)) (1 - BA)

SRGB = ((M * FA) * FRGB + BA * (1 - FA) * BRGB) / SA

M is defined as TColor32 to avoid unnecessary type conversions, it must store only values in [0..255] range, the function does not perform range checking and the result in case M > 255 is not specified.

MergeRegEx takes parameters and produces the result operating on CPU registers.

MergeMemEx operates with the background color referenced by a memory address.

Note, that after using MergeEx functions, you have to call EMMS. Otherwise CPU will be unable to handle floating point instructions.
