AutoGamma Property

Summary

Gets or sets the automatic setting for the Gamma property.

Syntax

C++/CLI

public bool AutoGamma { get; set; }

public: 
property bool AutoGamma { 
   bool get(); 
   void set (    bool ); 
}

Property Value

true if the property is controlled automatically; false if it has been set to a manual value

Remarks

If this property is true, the Gamma property is the current automatically controlled value. If this property is false, then the Gamma property returns the current manual value last set by the user.

Example

using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Multimedia; 
using LeadtoolsMultimediaExamples.Fixtures; 
 
 
public bool _result = false; 
public CaptureCtrlForm _form = new CaptureCtrlForm(); 
public string _outFile = Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.MediaDir, "VideoProcAmp_SetAutoValueExample.avi"); 
 
// this example demonstrates how to set an auto value on the 
// video proc amp object. 
 
public void SetAutoValueExample() 
{ 
   // reference the capture control 
   CaptureCtrl capturectrl = _form.CaptureCtrl; 
 
   try 
   { 
      // select the first device with Logitech in it's name 
      // Replace "Logitech" with your video capture device name 
      if (capturectrl.VideoDevices["Logitech"] == null) 
         throw new Exception("No Logitech video devices available!"); 
 
      capturectrl.VideoDevices["Logitech"].Selected = true; 
 
      // set a video compressor 
      capturectrl.VideoCompressors.Mpeg2.Selected = true; 
 
      // set the target file 
      capturectrl.TargetFile = _outFile; 
 
      // reference the video proc amp
