Public Function GetEmptyMask As Bitmap

C#

public Bitmap GetEmptyMask()

Return Value

Bitmap object which can be used as a template for a mask for using transforms on current bitmap.

Using this method you can get a template for a mask. Initially it is filled with black pixels (i.e. mask is absolutely transparent). After that you draw something on this mask (white color means opaque areas) and use it with transforms derived from MaskedBitmapTransform class.
