AddBorderToRegion Method

Summary

Creates a region of pixels with values that fall within a range defined by the value of a specific pixel and a lower and upper tolerance value but are not equal to the borderColor.

Syntax

Objective-C

C++

Java

public void AddBorderToRegion( 
   int left, 
   int top, 
   RasterColor borderColor, 
   RasterColor lowerToleranceColor, 
   RasterColor upperToleranceColor, 
   RasterRegionCombineMode combineMode 
)

Public Sub AddBorderToRegion( _ 
   ByVal left As Integer, _ 
   ByVal top As Integer, _ 
   ByVal borderColor As RasterColor, _ 
   ByVal lowerToleranceColor As RasterColor, _ 
   ByVal upperToleranceColor As RasterColor, _ 
   ByVal combineMode As RasterRegionCombineMode _ 
)

- (BOOL)addBorderToRegion:(NSInteger)left  
                      top:(NSInteger)top  
              borderColor:(LTRasterColor *)borderColor  
      lowerToleranceColor:(LTRasterColor *)lowTolColor

public void addBorderToRegion( 
  int left,  
  int top,  
  RasterColor borderColor,  
  RasterColor lowerToleranceColor,  
  RasterColor upperToleranceColor,  
  RasterRegionCombineMode combineMode 
)

public: 
void AddBorderToRegion(  
   int left, 
   int top, 
   RasterColor borderColor, 
   RasterColor lowerToleranceColor, 
   RasterColor upperToleranceColor, 
   RasterRegionCombineMode combineMode 
)

Parameters

left
X coordinate of a point. The color of the specified point will be used to set the region.

top
Y coordinate of a point. The color of the specified point will be used to set the region.

borderColor
Border color.

lowerToleranceColor
Lower tolerance values that set the lower stopping point for the region.

upperToleranceColor
Upper tolerance values that set the lower stopping point for the region.

combineMode
The action to take regarding the existing image region, if one is defined.

Remarks

For color bitmaps:

If the value of the pixel at (x, y) is (125, 125, 125) and lowerToleranceColor is (20,30,15), then the lower stopping point is (105, 95, 110). If upperToleranceColor is (20,30,15), then the upper stopping point is (145,155,140). In this case, the pixels with values between (105,95,110) and (145,155,140) are non-border pixels and will be included in the region. Any pixel with a value outside this range or equal to borderColor is considered a border pixel.

For gray scale bitmaps:

The minimum channel tolerance value of lowerToleranceColor will be used to set the lower stopping point, and the minimum channel tolerance value of upperToleranceColor will be used to set the upper stopping point. For example, if the value of the pixel at (x, y) is (125, 125, 125) and lowerToleranceColor is (20,30,15), the smallest value of the triplet (15) will be used to create the lower stopping point of (110,110,110). If upperToleranceColor is (10,25,20), the smallest value of that triplet (10) will be used to create the upper stopping point of (135,135,135). In this case, the pixels with values between (110, 110, 110) and (135,135,135) are non-border pixels and will be included in the region. Any pixel with a value outside this range or equal to borderColor is considered a border pixel.

This method supports signed/unsiged data images.

To update an existing region, specify how the new region is to be combined with the existing one using the combineMode parameter. For more information, refer to RasterRegionCombineMode.

The AddBorderToRegion function can use the Extended Grayscale mask. For more information, refer to Grayscale Images.
