public: void EnableLowMemoryUsage( int , int imageCount, array<MedicalViewerImageInformation^>^ imagesInformation ) |
Parameters
- hiddenFramesCount
- The number of unseen frames that the control will load. Setting this value for example, to 2, makes the control load the 2 frames before the viewed frames as well as the 2 frames after the viewed frames.
- imageCount
- The number of total frames that will be included in the specified cell.
- imagesInformation
- An object that contains the image information being set.

- The low memory usage feature works by preventing the control from loading all of the frames at runtime; instead, the control will load only the frames that are currently visible on the cell (plus the specified number of hidden frames). The control will send a request each time the user scrolls down or up, or changes the number of visible frames, etc. For example, suppose the cell layout is a 2X2 (see MedicalViewer.Rows and MedicalViewer.Columns, and the user needs to load more than 100000 frames. When low memory usage is enabled, the control will not load them all. Instead, this method will send a MedicalViewerCell.FramesRequested event when the cell is loaded, requesting 4 frames (1, 2, 3 and 4) (because the cell is 2X2). Once the user scrolls down the cell to view frame number 5, frame number 1 will be disposed of because it is no longer visible. Then the event will be fired to request frame number 5. When frames are requested, the user is supposed to send them to the control using the SetRequestedImage method.
- hiddenFramesCount allows the control load a specific number of frames ahead (so if you have a 2X2 cell and you set hiddenFramesCount to 3, the method will request (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7). The method will normally request also 0, -1, -2. but since those indexes are not valid, the control will not request them.
- If the low memory usage feature is not needed, load images directly by assigning the image to the cell using the Image property.
- To stop using the low memory usage feature, remove the cell that has this feature enabled and then add it again.
