LoadPsdChannel Method

Leadtools.Codecs Namespace > RasterCodecs Class : LoadPsdChannel Method



fileName
A System.String containing the name of the image file to load.
bitsPerPixel

Resulting image pixel depth. Valid values are:

Value Meaning
0 Keep the original file's pixel depth (Do not convert).
1 to 8 The specified bits per pixel in the resulting image.
12 12 bits per pixel in the resulting image.
16 16 bits per pixel in the resulting image.
24 24 bits per pixel in the resulting image.
32 32 bits per pixel in the resulting image.
48 48 bits per pixel in the resulting image.
64 64 bits per pixel in the resulting image.

order
The desired color order.
channelIndex
Index of the channel to load. This index is zero-based. Pass 0 to load the first channel, 1 to load the second channel, etc.
channelInfo
a CodecsPsdChannelInfo object to be updated with information about the loaded channel. Pass a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) for this parameter if channel information is not needed.
fileName
A System.String containing the name of the image file to load.
bitsPerPixel

Resulting image pixel depth. Valid values are:

Value Meaning
0 Keep the original file's pixel depth (Do not convert).

12 12 bits per pixel in the resulting image.
16 16 bits per pixel in the resulting image.

48 48 bits per pixel in the resulting image.
64 64 bits per pixel in the resulting image.

order
The desired color order.
channelIndex
Index of the channel to load. This index is zero-based. Pass 0 to load the first channel, 1 to load the second channel, etc.
channelInfo
a CodecsPsdChannelInfo object to be updated with information about the loaded channel. Pass a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) for this parameter if channel information is not needed.
Loads the specified channel from the specified PSD file.

Example

This example loads all channels from a PSD file

Visual BasicCopy Code
Public Sub LoadPsdChannels()
      Dim codecs As New RasterCodecs()

      Dim srcFileName As String = Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "Sunflower.psd")

      Dim imageInfo As CodecsImageInfo = codecs.GetInformation(srcFileName, False)
      For iCount As Integer = 0 To imageInfo.Psd.Channels - 1
         Dim ChannelInfo As New CodecsPsdChannelInfo()
         Dim ChannelImage As RasterImage = codecs.LoadPsdChannel(srcFileName, 0, CodecsLoadByteOrder.Rgb, iCount, ChannelInfo)

         Dim destFileName As String = Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "Channel_")
         destFileName = destFileName & iCount & ".Bmp"

         codecs.Save(ChannelImage, destFileName, RasterImageFormat.Bmp, ChannelImage.BitsPerPixel)

         ChannelImage.Dispose()
      Next
      ' Clean up
      codecs.Dispose()
   End Sub

         RasterImage ChannelImage = codecs.LoadPsdChannel(srcFileName, 0, CodecsLoadByteOrder.Rgb, iCount, ChannelInfo);

         string destFileName = Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "Channel_");
         destFileName = destFileName + iCount + ".Bmp";

         codecs.Save(ChannelImage, destFileName, RasterImageFormat.Bmp, ChannelImage.BitsPerPixel);

         ChannelImage.Dispose();
      }
      // Clean up

Remarks

Use this method to load PSD files only.

This method works similarly to a normal RasterCodecs.Load or RasterCodecs.LoadAsync methods, except that it loads only a channel from a PSD file. It loads the channel specified in channel.

Before calling this method, you may need to get or set file information, such as the number of channels on the file. Refer to CodecsPsdImageInfo.

The number of channels in a file is indicated in CodecsPsdImageInfo.Channels. If this number is 0, the file does not contains any channels and this method should not be called.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Silverlight, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 family, Windows Server 2008 family, Windows Vista, Windows 7, MAC OS/X (Intel Only)
