| AWidth | The minimum width of the scan |
| AHeight | The minimum height of the scan |
Return Value
Returns True when successful, returns False when not successful.
Explanation
The GetMinimumSize method retrieves the smallest size that can be scanned with a given scan device. When the UnitMode property is set to vikScanPixel, please set XResolution and YResolution properties with the resolution (DPI) value. The minimum size will be retrieved from these resolution values. If 0 is set into the XResolution and YResolution properties, the minimum size retrieved will correspond to the current resolution.
To retrieve the smallest size the DataSourceName, ScanMode, and UnitMode properties must be set. If the DataSourceName property is blank then prior to executing this method, please execute the Select method. (If the OpenDataSource method has been executed, the DataSourceName property is disabled and the open scan device will be used.)
Set the ScanMode property to vikScanDOC , vikScanADF1, or vikScanADF2 and set the UnitMode to values supported by the datasource (scan device). The AWidth and AHeight parameters will return values depending on the ScanMode and UnitMode properties.
To execute the GetMinimumSize method you must first execute the Initialize method. If the OpenDataSource method is executed prior to executing the GetMinimumSize method then the open datasource cannot be used by another application until that datasource (scan device) is closed.
The GetMinimumSize method corresponds to the Scan Control's ScanGetMinimumSize method in earlier versions of the ImageKit.
[Differences from the ImageKit7 ActiveX/VCL]
When the UnitMode property is vikScanPixel, the corresponding size can be retrieved from the resolution values.
