MinValue Property

Summary

Gets or sets the images minimum grayscale value.

Syntax

Objective-C

C++/CLI

Java

Python

public int MinValue { get; set; }

@property (nonatomic, assign) NSInteger minValue

public int getMinValue(); 
public void setMinValue( 
   int intValue 
);

public: 
property int MinValue { 
   int get(); 
   void set (    int ); 
}

MinValue # get and set (RasterImage)

Property Value

Minimum grayscale value.

Remarks

For every value between 0 and MinValue, Black (RGB(0,0,0)) will be used. For values between MinValue and MaxValue, the gray value to be displayed is calculated by : gray = (index - MinValue) * 255 / (MaxValue - MinValue).

index is the intensity value of the pixel. If the intensity value is > MaxValue, the color will be White. If the intensity value is < MinValue, the color will be Black. For those intensity values between MinValue and MaxValue, the above equation is used to determine the color, with index equal to the intensity value.

For more information, refer to Grayscale Images.
