I am using setRGB() for changing the values of the pixel of an image.
int rgb=new Color(0,0,0).getRGB();
image1.setRGB(i,j,rgb); //where i,j is the boundarie
White is in RGB 255,255,255 so:
Color myWhite = new Color(255, 255, 255); // Color white
int rgb = myWhite.getRGB();
try {
BufferedImage img = null;
try {
img = ImageIO.read(new File("bubbles.bmp"));
}
catch (IOException e) {
}
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < 100; j++) {
img.setRGB(i, j, rgb);
}
}
// retrieve image
File outputfile = new File("saved.png");
ImageIO.write(img, "png", outputfile);
}
catch (IOException e) {
}
Color col = new Color(newValue, newValue, newValue);
image1.setRGB(i, j, col.getRGB());
