Public Function CreateThumbnail( _
   ByVal thumbnailWidth As Integer, _
   ByVal thumbnailHeight As Integer, _
   ByVal bitsPerPixel As Integer, _
   ByVal viewPerspective As RasterViewPerspective, _
   ByVal sizeFlags As RasterSizeFlags _
) As RasterImage
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As RasterImage
Dim thumbnailWidth As Integer
Dim thumbnailHeight As Integer
Dim bitsPerPixel As Integer
Dim viewPerspective As RasterViewPerspective
Dim sizeFlags As RasterSizeFlags
Dim value As RasterImage
 
value = instance.CreateThumbnail(thumbnailWidth, thumbnailHeight, bitsPerPixel, viewPerspective, sizeFlags)

Parameters

thumbnailWidth
The desired maximum width of the thumbnail image in pixels.
thumbnailHeight
The desired maximum height of the thumbnail image in pixels.
bitsPerPixel
The desired bits per pixel.

The desired view perspective.
sizeFlags
Flags that control the resize operation.

Return Value

A new RasterImage that is the thumbnail image.

End Sub

Remarks

If the image width and height is less than thumbnailWidth and thumbnailHeight, then this method returns a copy of the image in the original size.

If the image width or height is greater than thumbnailWidth and thumbnailHeight, then this method will return the biggest thumbnail it can fit into the dimensions specified by thumbailWidth and thumbnailHeight, keeping the original image aspect ratio.

The result image will always have a resolution of 96 by 96 regardless of the resolution this RasterImage and will never return a thumbnail bigger than the original image.

Requirements

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