ConvertFromSource Method

Summary

Converts a WPF System.Windows.Media.ImageSource object to LEADTOOLS Leadtools.RasterImage.

Syntax
C#
VB
C++
public static RasterImage ConvertFromSource( 
   ImageSource image, 
   ConvertFromSourceOptions options 
) 
  
Public Shared Function ConvertFromSource( _ 
   ByVal image As ImageSource, _ 
   ByVal options As ConvertFromSourceOptions _ 
) As RasterImage 
public: 
static RasterImage^ ConvertFromSource(  
   ImageSource^ image, 
   ConvertFromSourceOptions options 
)  

Parameters

image
The System.Windows.Media.ImageSource object containing the image data to convert.

options
Options to control the conversion operation. Currently there are no extra options and the value of this parameter must be set to ConvertFromSourceOptions.None

Return Value

A Leadtools.RasterImage object representing the converted image.

Remarks

LEADTOOLS and WPF support different pixel formats. These pixel formats may not be identical in some cases. The conversion process takes care of converting scanlines to a suitable format that best matches the source data. The following table shows the result bits/pixel byte order achieved when passing images with different pixel format values:

Source PixelFormat Result Bits/Pixel and byte order

Example

This example will use get the WPF System.Windows.Media.ImageSource in an System.Windows.Controls.Image control, use LEADTOOLS to invert it and then set it back into the control.

C#
VB
using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Codecs; 
using Leadtools.ImageProcessing; 
using Leadtools.Windows.Media; 
 
private void ConvertFromSourceExample(System.Windows.Controls.Image imageControl) 
{ 
   // Get the WPF/Silverlight source image in the Image control 
   ImageSource source = imageControl.Source; 
 
   // Convert it to a LEADTOOLS RasterImage 
   using (RasterImage rasterImage = RasterImageConverter.ConvertFromSource(source, ConvertFromSourceOptions.None)) 
   { 
      // Now, use LEADTOOLS to Invert the image 
      Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Color.InvertCommand cmd = new Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Color.InvertCommand(); 
      cmd.Run(rasterImage); 
 
      // Convert the back to WPF/Silverlight 
      source = RasterImageConverter.ConvertToSource(rasterImage, ConvertToSourceOptions.None); 
 
      // Set it back into the Image control 
      imageControl.Source = source; 
   }
