MinimumToZeroCommand Class

Summary
Converts grayscale signed image to an unsigned one by shifting all the negative value of the image data, so the minimum negative value will be zero.
Syntax
C#
VB
Objective-C
C++
Java
public class MinimumToZeroCommand : RasterCommand 
Public Class MinimumToZeroCommand  
   Inherits RasterCommand 
@interface LTMinimumToZeroCommand : LTRasterCommand 
public class MinimumToZeroCommand extends RasterCommand 
public ref class MinimumToZeroCommand : public RasterCommand   
Remarks

This command is similar to ConvertSignedToUnsignedCommand. This command automatically determines the value to be shift in order to convert the image to unsigned image. This command is used usually before the command ZeroToNegativeCommand. This command updates the Signed property of the RasterImage. This command also updates the MinValue and MaxValue properties of the RasterImage. This command does not support 8-bit images. This command 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. This command supports signed data images. This command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.

Example

This command will apply MultiscaleEnhancementCommand on a signed image, but since the MultiscaleEnhancementCommand does not support signed images, we will convert the image to an unsigned image, apply the effect, and then convert it back to a signed image.
