'Usage
 
Dim instance As DeskewCommand

public sealed class DeskewCommand : Leadtools.ImageProcessing.IRasterCommand

function Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Core.DeskewCommand()

public ref class DeskewCommand : public Leadtools.ImageProcessing.RasterCommand, Leadtools.ImageProcessing.IRasterCommand

This command is typically used to automatically straighten scanned images, including bank checks. This command is available in the Document\Medical Toolkits.

This command contains a special algorithm for detecting the skewed checks, To do this add the following flags to Flags property (DeskewCommandFlags.UseCheckDeskew | DeskewCommandFlags.UseLineDetectionCheckDeskew)

If the Flags property or the flags parameter of the Constructor contains DeskewCommandFlags.ReturnAngleOnly, the command will update the Angle property without rotating the image.
The calculated rotation is limited to 20 degrees in either direction. This command is intended for images, such as scanned documents, that are mainly horizontal lines of text. The results are less predictable with other types of images.
This command includes an option to skip deskewing if the angle is very small.
This command does not support 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. If the image is 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color, the command will not throw an exception.
This command does not support signed data images.
This command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.
This command has been expanded with several flags that can be used to work on bank check images. Different algorithms can be used. For more information, refer to the Remarks section of the DeskewCommand class.

For more information, refer to Introduction to Image Processing With LEADTOOLS.

In Silverlight and Windows Phone versions of LEADTOOLS, this image processing command will fail if the image data for the RasterImage object is stored internally using a Silverlight WriteableBitmap object. For more information, refer to Image Processing Command Limitations in Silverlight.
