Syntax	short Vignette(ILEADRaster * pRaster, long lCenterX, long lCenterY, long lFading, long lFadingRate, long lWidth, long lHeight, OLE_COLOR crVigColor, long lFlags);
Overview	Refer to Applying Artistic Effects.

Remarks

(Raster Pro and above only) Draws a specified shape and feathers it to the bitmap.

This method can be used to draw a circle, ellipse, rectangle or square to create a vignette shape and then a color is feathered to the bitmap, filling either the inside or the outside of the vignette shape.

As an example, if you use the following figure:

$image\Replacecolor_Befor_1.gif$

And you call Vignette using the following values:

Parameter	Value
lCenterX	144
lCenterY	181
lFading	50
lFadingRate	33
lWidth	145
lHeight	181
crVigColor	White
lFlags	VIG_ELLIPSE \| VIG_FILLIN

The following figure results:

$image\TulipsVignette.gif$

This method can process the whole image or a region of the image. If a bitmap has a region, the effect is applied only to the region.

Support for 12 and 16-bit grayscale and 48 and 64-bit color images is available only in the Document/Medical toolkits.

This method does not support signed data images. It returns the error code ERROR_SIGNED_DATA_NOT_SUPPORTED if a signed data image is passed to this method.
