DesaturateCommand Class

Summary

Converts the image to a grayscale level by reducing the saturation of each color to zero. The conversion will not change the color resolution.

Syntax

Java

Objective-C

WinRT C#

C++

public class DesaturateCommand : RasterCommand

Public Class DesaturateCommand  
   Inherits Leadtools.Imageprocessing.Leadtools.ImageProcessing.RasterCommand 
   Implements Leadtools.Imageprocessing.Leadtools.ImageProcessing.IRasterCommand

public sealed class DesaturateCommand : Leadtools.Imageprocessing.Leadtools.ImageProcessing.IRasterCommand

@interface LTDesaturateCommand : LTRasterCommand

public class DesaturateCommand extends RasterCommand

function Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Color.DesaturateCommand()

public ref class DesaturateCommand : public Leadtools.Imageprocessing.Leadtools.ImageProcessing.RasterCommand, Leadtools.Imageprocessing.Leadtools.ImageProcessing.IRasterCommand

Remarks

The image is converted to a grayscale level by reducing the saturation of each color to zero.
This class supports only RGB images. It does not support grayscale images.
Support for 48-bit and 64-bit colored images are available only in the Document/Medical toolkits.
This class does not support signed data images.
This command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.
