LDicomDS::SetKeepPixelDataIntactFlag

#include "Ltdic.h"

L_VOID LDicomDS::SetKeepPixelDataIntactFlag(bSet)

L_BOOL bSet;

/* flag */

Enables or disables the pre-processing of image data when a function that gets a bitmap from a Pixel Data element is called.

Parameter

Description

bSet

Flag the indicates whether to enable or disable the pre-processing of image data when a function that gets a bitmap from a Pixel Data element is called. Possible values are:

 

Value

Meaning

 

TRUE

Do not pre-process the image data.

 

FALSE

Pre-process the image data.

Returns

None

Comments

When a function that gets a bitmap from a data set is called, such as LDicomDS::GetImage or LDicomDS::GetImageList, LEADTOOLS may pre-process the image data in the bitmap handle for optimal display. Call the LDicomDS::GetKeepPixelDataIntactFlag function to determine whether LEADTOOLS will pre-process the image data. By default LEADTOOLS pre-processes the image data.

Calling the LDicomDS::SetKeepPixelDataIntactFlag function with bSet set to TRUE stops LEADTOOLS from pre-processing the image data in the bitmap handle. Please note that this may result in unexpected behavior when a LEADTOOLS display or image processing function is called for that bitmap handle.
