TextureAlphaBlendCommand Class

Summary
Combines image data from two images with feathering and constant opacity; by combining the two images with a variable opacity that depends on a fade mask then combine the result with the destination image with a constant opacity.
Syntax
C#
C++/CLI
Python
public class TextureAlphaBlendCommand : RasterCommand 
public ref class TextureAlphaBlendCommand : public RasterCommand   
class TextureAlphaBlendCommand(RasterCommand): 
Remarks
  • To combine two images with a fixed opacity, use the AlphaBlendCommand.
  • To combine two images with a feather, use the FeatherAlphaBlendCommand.
  • The TextureAlphaBlendCommand does the two operations; first it combines the two images with feathering using the fade mask image, then combines the result with the destination image with a fixed opacity.
  • To create an image that contains a fade mask, use FadedMaskCommand.
  • This command can also underlay the fade mask image with the underlay image before using it in the feather combine operation.
  • This command also combines the fade mask image with the underlay image so that it appears to be an underlying texture for the fade mask image.
  • The following is an example for the resulted image using this commands with the following characteristics:

    • The source image is a red image.
    • The destination image is a white image.
    • The opacity is set to 255.
    • The left image is the result of applying the method without texture image.
    • The right image is the result of applying the method with texture image.

  • 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 does not support signed data images.
  • This command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.

Example

Run the TextureAlphaBlendCommand on an image.

C#
using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Codecs; 
using Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Effects; 
 
 
public void TextureAlphaBlendCommandExample() 
{ 
   // Load an image 
   RasterCodecs codecs = new RasterCodecs(); 
   codecs.ThrowExceptionsOnInvalidImages = true; 
 
   RasterImage image = codecs.Load(Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "Master.jpg")); 
 
   // Prepare the command 
   RasterImage SrcImage; 
   RasterImage MaskImage; 
   RasterImage underlayImage; 
 
   SrcImage = codecs.Load(Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, @"ImageProcessingDemo\Image3.cmp"), 4, CodecsLoadByteOrder.Bgr, 1, 1); 
   //Load the fade mask image. 
   MaskImage = codecs.Load(Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, @"ImageProcessingDemo\FadeMask.bmp"), 4, CodecsLoadByteOrder.Bgr, 1, 1); 
 
   underlayImage = codecs.Load(Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "cannon.jpg"), 4, CodecsLoadByteOrder.Bgr, 1, 1); 
 
   TextureAlphaBlendCommand command = new TextureAlphaBlendCommand(); 
   command.DestinationRectangle = new LeadRect(image.Width / 2 - MaskImage.Width / 2, image.Height / 2 - MaskImage.Height / 2, MaskImage.Width, MaskImage.Height); 
   command.MaskImage = MaskImage; 
   command.Opacity = 100; 
   command.SourceImage = SrcImage; 
   command.SourcePoint = new LeadPoint(0, 0); 
   command.UnderlayImage = underlayImage; 
   // Combine ImageSource with the affected image, with MaskImage and a 100 opacity. 
   command.Run(image); 
   codecs.Save(image, Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "Result.jpg"), RasterImageFormat.Jpeg, 24); 
 
}
