Return Value
Returns True if successful. Returns False if unsuccessful.
Explanation
The AntiAlias method smoothes edges in raster images. To execute the AntiAlias method, set the image handle of the image in the Image property or the Layer(LayerNumber).Image property. The AntiAlias method supports 8-bit grayscale, 16, 24, and 32 bit images.
Before executing the AntiAlias 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. Set the appropriate values 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
Note: When the SelectMode property is set to EffectPolygon or EffectEllipse, the values must be set in the Inside property.
If the AntiAlias method is successful and the DestinationAsImageKitImage property is True, the resulting image will be set in the Image property or in the Layer(LayerNumber).Image property, according to the value set in the LayerNumber property.
If the AntiAlias method is successful and the DestinationAsImageKitImage property is False, the resulting image will be set in the DestinationImage property.
