Bufferedimage into circle shape

Question

I have a buffered image from byte array. How do I make the image into a circle? Crop? I don't want a circle, I want the orginal image to become circle shape and display

 def bufferedImage = imgSvc.convertByteArrayToBufferedImage(crop.image)

I won't post this as an answer, seeing as it might not be the best solution, but using the radius as a measurement for Pythagoras and copying the pixel images to another image for all in range of the radius could work, it might be sloppy. You would have to use a BufferedType.TYPE_ARGB. To include alpha for transparency of course. — , Feb 06 '13 at 16:38

If bufferedImage is squared, then with this code :

int width = bufferedImage.getWidth();
BufferedImage circleBuffer = new BufferedImage(width, width, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
Graphics2D g2 = circleBuffer.createGraphics();
g2.setClip(new Ellipse2D.Float(0, 0, width, width));
g2.drawImage(bufferedImage, 0, 0, width, width, null);

you get a circular cropped image in circleBuffer

The cropped zone is not antialiased :cry: – Roc Boronat Jun 18 '21 at 12:25

this can help

    g.setClip(new Ellipse2D.Float(x, y, w, h));
    g.drawImage(yourBufferedImage, x, y, w, h, null);

You can use setClip() method of the Graphics class to restrict the drawing area of a graphics context to a specific region. The drawback of this is that this clipping will not be anti-aliased.

There are some more advanced tricks to achieve a better-looking result, see the answers to the following questions:
