Syntax

#include "ltwrappr.h"

virtual L_INT LBitmap::ChangeContrast(nChange, uFlags = 0)

Parameters

L_INT nChange

Amount of contrast change. Valid values are -1000 to +1000.

L_UINT32 uFlags

Reserved for future use. Must be 0.

Returns

Value Meaning
SUCCESS The function was successful.
< 1 An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

To update a status bar or detect a user interrupt during execution of this function, refer to LBase::EnableStatusCallback.

This function supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available only in the Document/Medical toolkits.

When applying contrast, gamma, and intensity changes to a bitmap, LEAD applies the changes in the following order:

This function does not support 32-bit grayscale images. It returns the error code ERROR_GRAY32_UNSUPPORTED if a 32-bit grayscale image is passed to this function.

This function changes contrast of the image data. If the image has a LUT, the function will work on the LUT, not the image data. If the image has a LUT and you want to work on the image data, set the UseLUT Flag in the BITMAPHANDLE structure to FALSE. Then, after calling the function, reset the UseLUT flag to TRUE as follows:

myBitmap.EnableUseLUT(FALSE); 
myBitmap.ChangeContrast(pBitmap, 250); 
myBitmap.EnableUseLUT(TRUE);
