ZeroToNegativeCommand Class

Example 





Members 
Converts a grayscale unsigned image to a signed image by shifting the image data to the negative side by the amount specified by the user. .NET support WinRT support Silverlight support
Object Model
ZeroToNegativeCommand Class
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Class ZeroToNegativeCommand 
   Inherits Leadtools.ImageProcessing.RasterCommand
   Implements Leadtools.ImageProcessing.IRasterCommand 
'Usage
 
Dim instance As ZeroToNegativeCommand
public sealed class ZeroToNegativeCommand : Leadtools.ImageProcessing.IRasterCommand  
function Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Core.ZeroToNegativeCommand()
public ref class ZeroToNegativeCommand : public Leadtools.ImageProcessing.RasterCommand, Leadtools.ImageProcessing.IRasterCommand  
Remarks
This command is similar to ConvertUnsignedToSignedCommand. However, MinimumToZeroCommand updates MinimumToZeroCommand.ShiftAmount with the value by which the intensity values were shifted. The updated MinimumToZeroCommand.ShiftAmount value can be passed to ZeroToNegativeCommand to convert the image back to signed (i.e. after using image processing command that works in unsigned 12-16 bit grayscale image).
MinimumToZeroCommand and ZeroToNegativeCommand are most often used in concert with one or more image processing or analysis commands. MinimumToZeroCommand converts signed data to unsigned data, in preparation for image processing or analysis commands that work on unsigned image data. After the image processing or analysis is performed, ZeroToNegativeCommand can be used to converts the unsigned data back to signed data.

This command is used usually after the command MinimumToZeroCommand.

This command updates the Leadtools.RasterImage.Signed property of the Leadtools.RasterImage.

This command also updates the Leadtools.RasterImage.MinValue and Leadtools.RasterImage.MaxValue properties of the Leadtools.RasterImage.

This command supports signed data images and supports 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images. Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available only in the Document/Medical toolkits. However, this command does not support 8-bit images.

This command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.

In Silverlight and Windows Phone versions of LEADTOOLS, this image processing command will fail if the image data for the RasterImage object is stored internally using a Silverlight WriteableBitmap object. For more information, refer to Image Processing Command Limitations in Silverlight.
