Example

Run the ShadowCommand on an image.

using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Codecs; 
using Leadtools.ImageProcessing.SpecialEffects; 
 
public void ShadowCommandExample() 
{ 
   // Load an image 
   RasterCodecs codecs = new RasterCodecs(); 
   codecs.ThrowExceptionsOnInvalidImages = true; 
 
   RasterImage image = codecs.Load(Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "Master.jpg")); 
 
   // Prepare the command 
   ShadowCommand command = new ShadowCommand(); 
   command.Type = ShadowCommandType.GrayShadow; 
   command.Angle = ShadowCommandAngle.SouthEast; 
   command.Threshold = 0; 
   //Apply shadow effect  to the image. 
   command.Run(image); 
   codecs.Save(image, Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "Result.jpg"), RasterImageFormat.Jpeg, 24); 
 
}
