Conversion from png 8 to png 32

Hello,
The problem is in correct conversion from png 8 to png 32. Using Ledtools.ImageProcessing.ColorResolutionCommand gives abnormal result. I use С#, .NET Framework 2.0, Leadtools Imaging Pro 16
in attach:
"PNG_adaptive_Original.png" - original image
"processed_PNG_adaptive_ColorResolutionCommand.png"-processed image

Please attach the source file that you are facing a problem with and the result of using the ColorResolutionCommand.
You can attach images by putting them in a ZIP or RAR file. Also, do not use the 'Preview' feature when attaching images or files.

my images i worked with

There are several way to do this, one way is to (after the ColorResolutionCommand):
- Create a new temporary image (same width and height of the original image).
- Fill it with white (using the FillCommand).
- Set the temporary image as the Alpha image of you image (using SetAlphaImage).
- Save the image as 32-bit.

There are other ways to do this, however, I need more information about your Load/Save requirements. Are you only interested in changing the BPP (BitsPerPixel) of the PNG file from 8 to 32?

I forgot to say, I need to convert from original png8 with transparency to png32 with transparency. Also add a border. By now a problem is in adding a border to a created png32 image with transparency.

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using Leadtools;
using Leadtools.Codecs;
using Leadtools.ImageProcessing;

namespace LeadtoolsApplication
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
RasterCodecs.Startup();
#region {image loading}
string fileName = @".\Images\PNG_adaptive.png";
RasterCodecs codecs = new RasterCodecs();
RasterImage image = codecs.Load(fileName);
CodecsImageInfo imageInfo = codecs.GetInformation(fileName, false, 1);
#endregion
#region {create png32 with transparency}
image.AddColorToRegion(new RasterColor(Color.White), RasterRegionCombineMode.SetNot);
RasterImage alphaImage = image.CreateMaskFromRegion();
image.SetAlphaImage(alphaImage);
#endregion
#region {add to image a border}
int borderWidth = 30;
RasterColor borderColor = new RasterColor(Color.Green);
#region {create a image base}
RasterImage imageResult = new RasterImage(RasterMemoryFlags.Conventional,
image.Width, image.Height, image.BitsPerPixel, image.Order,
image.ViewPerspective, image.GetPalette(), IntPtr.Zero, 0);
#endregion
#region {fill image base with border color}
FillCommand fillCommand = new FillCommand();
fillCommand.Color = borderColor;
fillCommand.Run(imageResult);
#endregion
#region {cut border of the image}
CropCommand cropCommand = new CropCommand();
cropCommand.Rectangle = new Rectangle(borderWidth, borderWidth,
image.Width - borderWidth * 2, image.Height - borderWidth * 2);
cropCommand.Run(image);
#endregion
#region {combine image base with cut image}
CombineFastCommand combineFastCommand = new CombineFastCommand();
combineFastCommand.DestinationRectangle = new Rectangle(
borderWidth, borderWidth, image.Width, image.Height);
combineFastCommand.SourcePoint = Point.Empty;
combineFastCommand.DestinationImage = imageResult;
combineFastCommand.Flags = CombineFastCommandFlags.SourceCopy;
combineFastCommand.Run(image);
#endregion
#endregion
#region {save the modified image}
string fileNameOut = @".\Images\processed_PNG_adaptive.png";
codecs.Save(imageResult, fileNameOut, RasterImageFormat.Png, 32);
#endregion
RasterCodecs.Shutdown();
}
}
}

Arzak,
About converting from 8-bit to 32-bit, if the original image already contains transparency information, you can load it directly as 32-bit by passing the value 32 in the BitsPerPixel parameter in the RasterCodecs.Load function.
If you then save it as 32-bit, the transparency information will be preserved.
However, if the original image does not contain an alpha channel, you can solve that without the alpha-fill code I sent you by setting  CodecsLoadOptions.InitAlpha Property to ture before loading the 8-bit as 32.

Our moderator has split the forum post to a new thread since it is not directly related to the original issue.


Regarding the border issue, I'm not sure that I understand the exact problem with the result file. Do you want to add the border to the image without clipping the image itself? If yes, do the following to add border color to it:
- Create a new image the size of your existing image plus 2 times the border size you desire. Use the RasterImage Constructor to achieve this.
- Fill the new image with white. Use the FillCommand Class.
- Combine the source image onto the white image. Use the CombineCommand Class.
If you have further questions regarding adding border to an image, please create a new forum thread and provide details regarding your question.
