Leadtools.ImageProcessing.SpecialEffects Namespace : PerlinCommand Class



Uses a pseudo-random number generator in order to create a Perlin noise, and then procedurally transforms that noise into a texture. This command is available in the Raster Pro and above toolkits.

Object Model

PerlinCommand Class

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Public Class PerlinCommand 
   Inherits Leadtools.ImageProcessing.RasterCommand
   Implements IRasterCommand 
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As PerlinCommand
C# 
public class PerlinCommand : Leadtools.ImageProcessing.RasterCommand, IRasterCommand  
C++/CLI 
public ref class PerlinCommand : public Leadtools.ImageProcessing.RasterCommand, IRasterCommand  

Example

Run the PerlinCommand on an image and applies the Perlin filter.

Remarks

  • This method uses a pseudo-random number generator in order to create a Perlin noise, and then procedurally transforms that noise into a texture. Depending on the flags that are set, the texture can be saved as an image by itself, or the texture can be combined with another image.
  • This method is similar to the Leadtools.ImageProcessing.SpecialEffects.CloudsCommand in that they both use Perlin equations to generate pseudo-random noise, but each method applies different equations to the noise to produce the texture.
  • Use the Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Effects.AddNoiseCommand in order to add random noise to an image.
  • This command 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.
  • This command does not support signed data images.
  • This command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.
