Explanation
The OilPaint method produces an effect similar to an oil painting on the image.
To execute the OilPaint method, set the image handle of
the image in the SourceImage
property. The OilPaint method supports 8 bit grayscale,
16, 24, and 32 bit images.
Before executing the OilPaint method, you must set the area on the image that will be affected. There are 4 ways to do this.
- To use a mask image, set the SelectMode property to EffectMask. Set the mask image handle in the SourceMask property
- To process the total image, set the SelectMode property to EffectAll
- To process the polygonal area on the image, set the SelectMode property to EffectPolygon. Select the polygon by setting the appropriate coordinate values for the points of the polygon in the Point property
- To process an elliptical area on the image, set the SelectMode property to EffectEllipse. Select the ellipse by setting the appropriate values for the bounding rectangle in the Rect property
When the SelectMode property is set to EffectPolygon or EffectEllipse, the appropriate values must be set in the Inside property.
If successful the resulting raster image data is set in the DestinationImage property.
