StopDithering Method

Summary

Cleans up all data variables and buffers allocated by the StartDithering and DitherLine methods.

Syntax

Objective-C

C++/CLI

Java

Python

public void StopDithering()

- (BOOL)stopDithering:(NSError **)error

public void stopDithering();

public: 
void StopDithering();

def StopDithering(self):

Remarks

This method resets all internal variables to their default settings. For a description of how the methods relate to each other, refer to StartDithering method.

This method does not support signed images.
