Namespace: Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs
Assembly: Aurigma.GraphicsMill (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.dll)

Syntax

Visual Basic

Public NotInheritable Class BmpFrame _
	Inherits Frame

C#

public sealed class BmpFrame : Frame

Examples

You can use BmpWriter class instead of the Save(String, IEncoderOptions) method of the Bitmap. In particular it enables you to save the image asynchronously.

The BmpWriter class usage is demonstrated below:

Visual Basic

Dim bitmap As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap("c:\Mountain.jpg")

Dim writer As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.BmpWriter("C:\Mountain.bmp")

Dim frame As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.BmpFrame( _
    Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.CompressionType.None)

frame.SetBitmap(bitmap)

bitmap.Dispose()

writer.AddFrame(frame)

frame.Dispose()

writer.Dispose()

C#

using (Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap bitmap = 
           new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap(@"c:\Mountain.jpg"))
{
    using (Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.BmpWriter writer = 
        new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.BmpWriter())
    {
        writer.Open(@"C:\Mountain.bmp");

        using (Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.BmpFrame frame = 
                   new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.BmpFrame())
        {
            frame.Compression = Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.CompressionType.None;
            frame.SetBitmap(bitmap);

            writer.AddFrame(frame);
        }
    }
}
