WindowLevelExtCommand Class

Summary

Converts a 12 or 16-bit grayscale image to a 16-bit grayscale or a 48-bit RGB image. This class is available in Document/Medical toolkits only.

Syntax

Objective-C

C++/CLI

Java

Python

public class WindowLevelExtCommand : RasterCommand

@interface LTWindowLevelExtCommand : LTRasterCommand

public class WindowLevelExtCommand 
    extends RasterCommand

public ref class WindowLevelExtCommand : public RasterCommand

class WindowLevelExtCommand(RasterCommand):

Remarks

This command supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale images is available only in the Document/Medical toolkits.
This command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.
RasterByteOrder.Gray is not supported by this command.

Only TIFF and DICOM file formats are capable of saving images that have been window-leveled. Images can be window-leveled by calling WindowLevelExtCommand and specifying RasterWindowLevelMode.PaintAndProcessing for the flags parameter, by using the WindowLevelExtCommand or by loading an image from a file format that supports Window Leveling. If a window-leveled image is saved as any other file format, the image data will be converted before being saved. For more information, refer to Saving Window-Leveled Images. See WindowLevelCommand for a version of this class using 8-bit lookup tables. LEADTOOLS supports two types of LUTs for 10-16-bit grayscale images (8-bit LUT and 16-bit LUT). Typical grayscale image display and processing is done using an 8-bit LUT. But, you can also use a 16-bit LUT, which offers more precision. Some special video cards and monitors also support display of grayscale images using a 16-bit LUT. For more information, refer to Introduction to Image Processing With LEADTOOLS. For more information, refer to Grayscale Images.

Example

Run the WindowLevelExtCommand on an image.
