This method retrieves the smallest size that can be scanned with a given scan device.
Parameters
- dpiX
- The horizontal resolution (in dots per inch)
- dpiY
- The vertical resolution (in dots per inch)
Return Value
The smallest size (If unsuccessful. the Width and Height parameters of the SizeF structure returns 0)
Explanation
The GetMinimumSize method retrieves the smallest size that can be scanned with a given scan device. To retrieve the smallest size the DataSourceName, Mode, and Unit properties must be set. If the DataSourceName property is blank then prior to executing this method, please execute the SelectDataSource method. (If the OpenDataSource method has been executed, the DataSourceName is disabled and the open scan device will be used.) Set the Mode property from 0 to 2 and set the Unit to values supported by the datasource (scan device). The Width and Height parameters of the SizeF structure will return values depending on the Mode and Unit 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.
