PosterizeCommand Class

Summary

Imposes a poster effect on an image by quantizing the image's colors to a specified number of color levels per plane. For example, two levels means two of red, two of green, and two of blue.

public class PosterizeCommand : RasterCommand

Public Class PosterizeCommand  
   Inherits Leadtools.Imageprocessing.Leadtools.ImageProcessing.RasterCommand 
   Implements Leadtools.Imageprocessing.Leadtools.ImageProcessing.IRasterCommand

public sealed class PosterizeCommand : Leadtools.Imageprocessing.Leadtools.ImageProcessing.IRasterCommand

@interface LTPosterizeCommand : LTRasterCommand

public class PosterizeCommand extends RasterCommand

function Leadtools.ImageProcessing.Color.PosterizeCommand()

public ref class PosterizeCommand : public Leadtools.Imageprocessing.Leadtools.ImageProcessing.RasterCommand, Leadtools.Imageprocessing.Leadtools.ImageProcessing.IRasterCommand

Remarks

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 32-bit grayscale images.

If the image has a LUT and you want to work on the image data, set RasterImage.UseLookupTable to false. Then, after calling the method, reset the UselookupTable property to true, as follows:

rasterImage.UseLookupTable = false; 
Method(rasterImage); 
rasterImage.UseLookupTable = true;

For more information, refer to Applying Artistic Effects.

Example

Run the PosterizeCommand on an image and posterize it.
