LineRemoveCommand Class

Summary

Removes horizontal and vertical lines in a 1-bit black and white image.

Syntax
C#
VB
Objective-C
C++
Java
public class LineRemoveCommand : RasterCommand 
Public Class LineRemoveCommand  
   Inherits RasterCommand 
@interface LTLineRemoveCommand : LTRasterCommand 
public class LineRemoveCommand extends RasterCommand 
public ref class LineRemoveCommand : public RasterCommand   

Remarks

This command is available in the Document/Medical Toolkits.

  • This command removes horizontal and vertical lines from scanned text documents. If the lines pass through text, the LineRemoveCommand properties/Constructor parameters can be configured to remove or preserve the text. The behavior of this command can be further modified by using an Event Handler that handles the LineRemoveCommandEventArgs.
  • This command works only on 1-bit black and white images.
  • If a region is selected, only the selected region will be changed by this command. If no region is selected, the whole image will be processed.
  • This command does not support signed data images.
  • This command does not support 32-bit grayscale images.

For more information, refer to Cleaning Up 1-Bit Images.

Example

Run the LineRemoveCommand on an image.
