Summary

Creates a 1-bit mask image from the region that is defined in the image.

Syntax

C#
VB
Java
Objective-C
WinRT C#
C++
public RasterImage CreateMaskFromRegion() 
Public Function CreateMaskFromRegion() As Leadtools.RasterImage 
public Leadtools.RasterImage CreateMaskFromRegion() 
- (nullable LTRasterImage *)createMaskFromRegion:(NSError **)error 
public RasterImage createMaskFromRegion() 
 function Leadtools.RasterImage.CreateMaskFromRegion() 
public: 
Leadtools.RasterImage^ CreateMaskFromRegion();  

Return Value

The newly created RasterImage which will be updated with a 1-bit, black-and-white image, where pixels from the region are white, and all others are black.

Remarks

For more information, refer to Implementing Transparency.

For more information, refer to Creating a Region.

For more information, refer to Saving A Region.

For more information, refer to Working with the Existing Region.

Example

This example will load an image, sets a color region using black, and then creates a 1-bit mask image from that image and saves it to disk.
