Overview and description of classes and enumerations that provide filters and transforms to process images. It includes methods for applying artistic effects like ripple, warp, tunnel, lens flare, colored pencil, etc.

Classes

	Class	Description
	AgingCommandBitmapEffect	Adds effects that simulate random color changes, scratches, dust and pits, making an image look like it was made from an old film.
	BendCommandBitmapEffect	Warps the active image along a curved plane, centered on the pivot point.
	BricksTextureCommandBitmapEffect	Creates a brick texture that makes the image look like it has been drawn on a brick wall.
	CloudsCommandBitmapEffect	Applies cloud effects to a bitmap.
	ColoredBallsCommandBitmapEffect	Throws colored balls over the image. The resulting color of the ball is a combination of ball color and the color of the pixel where it has fallen with certain opacity. Various parameters control the color and appearance of the balls. This method is available in the Document and Medical toolkits.
	ColoredPencilCommandBitmapEffect	Applies an effect to an image that makes it look like it has been drawn with colored pencils.
	CylinderCommandBitmapEffect	Warps the image around a cylinder.
	DiceEffectCommandBitmapEffect	Splits the image into square or rectangular blocks. If the blocks are square, the command rotates each block by 0, 90, 180, or 270 degrees. If the blocks are rectangular, the command flips the blocks around the X-axis or Y-axis.
	DiffuseGlowCommandBitmapEffect	Adds a colored glow to an image's light or dark areas, making these areas shine with a neon glow.
	DrawStarCommandBitmapEffect	Draws a star on the image.
	DryCommandBitmapEffect	Simulates painting an image with the watercolor dry brush technique.
	FragmentCommandBitmapEffect	Averages an image with its shifted copies. This command creates four copies of an image. Each copy is shifted by the offset amount into one of the four directions: top, left, bottom and right. Then the image is averaged with its shifted copies.
	FreeHandShearCommandBitmapEffect	Shears the image by the wave drawn using the amplitudes array.
	FreeHandWaveCommandBitmapEffect	Distorts the image by the wave specified in the amplitudes array and the rotation angle.
	FreePlaneBendCommandBitmapEffect	Wraps the image onto a 3D plane shaped by Curve.
	FreeRadialBendCommandBitmapEffect	Wraps the image along its radius on a 3D surface shaped by Curve.
	FunctionalLightCommandBitmapEffect	Adds light to the image according to a function-based distribution. This light will be generated by one of the following methods: linear, quadratic, sine, cosine, or using freehand points.
	GlassEffectCommandBitmapEffect	Divides the image into rectangular cells and makes it look as if it is being viewed through glass blocks. This command is available in LEADTOOLS Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.
	GlowCommandBitmapEffect	Makes the colored edges shine with a neon glow.
	ImpressionistCommandBitmapEffect	Makes the image look like it was painted by an impressionist painter.
	LensFlareCommandBitmapEffect	Simulates the secondary reflections caused when bright lights are facing the camera lens. The lens flare is refracted into a series of lightened circles that surround the flare.
	MosaicTilesCommandBitmapEffect	Creates a mosaic effect on an image by dividing an image into rectangular or arc-shaped cells with irregular boundaries and modifying the color of each cell.
	OceanCommandBitmapEffect	Reflects the image on an ocean surface.
	PerlinCommandBitmapEffect	Uses a pseudo-random number generator in order to create a Perlin noise, and then procedurally transforms that noise into a texture.
	PerspectiveCommandBitmapEffect	Gives the image a 3-D depth, as if it exists on a flat plane skewed into different shapes.
	PixelateCommandBitmapEffect	Divides the image into rectangular or circular cells and then recreates the image by filling those cells with the minimum, maximum, or average pixel value, depending upon the effect that was selected.
	PlaneBendCommandBitmapEffect	Places the image on parallel planes along the Z-axis, and bends the planes toward the center point.
	PlaneCommandBitmapEffect	Places the image on parallel planes along the Z-axis.
	PlasmaCommandBitmapEffect	Applies color patterns that blend into each other like plasma.
	PointillistCommandBitmapEffect	Converts image colors into randomly placed dots to create a pointillist painting.
	PolarCommandBitmapEffect	Converts the image from rectangular to polar coordinates and vice versa.
	PunchCommandBitmapEffect	Warps the image by pinching it toward the center or expanding the image away from its center.
	PuzzleEffectCommandBitmapEffect	Splits the image into square blocks and randomizes these blocks inside the image.
	RadialBlurCommandBitmapEffect	Blurs the image by rotating the pixels around the center point.
	RadialWaveCommandBitmapEffect	Distorts the image using a wave radiating from the center.
	RevEffectCommandBitmapEffect	Adds a pseudo-3D wave effect to the image by drawing lines across the image, basing the line's height at each point on its brightness at that point.
	RingEffectCommandBitmapEffect	Divides the image into the specified number of rings. Each ring is rotated according to a rotation angle. The rotation angle for each ring will be chosen randomly by the command or can be passed to the command.
	RippleCommandBitmapEffect	Warps the image in concentric rings.
	RomanMosaicCommandBitmapEffect	Segments the image into rectangular or rounded rectangular tiles and fills them with a color chosen randomly from the colors of the tile's pixels.
	ShadowCommandBitmapEffect	Adds shadows to the image.
	SphereCommandBitmapEffect	Warps the image around a 3D spherical shape.
	SwirlCommandBitmapEffect	Spins the image according to the rotation angle to produce a swirl pattern.
	TunnelCommandBitmapEffect	Places the image inside a tunnel along the Z-axis.
	VignnetCommandBitmapEffect	Draws a specified shape and feathers it to the image.
	WaveCommandBitmapEffect	Distorts the image with two perpendicular waves at the specified angle and with the specified wave type.
	WindCommandBitmapEffect	Creates thin lines, directed along the specified angle, on the affected image.
	ZigZagCommandBitmapEffect	Radially distorts the image by creating waves that twist the image around a specified center.
	ZoomBlurCommandBitmapEffect	Blurs the image along radial lines starting from a specific center point.
	ZoomWaveCommandBitmapEffect	Distorts the image with a wave zoomed from the specified center.
