Bitmap.DrawOn Method (Graphics, Int32, Int32, Int32, Int32, CombineMode, Single, ResizeInterpolationMode)

Draws the current bitmap on a given System.Drawing.Graphics object (standard .NET class for drawing).

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

Syntax

public void DrawOn(
	Graphics destinationGraphics,
	int destinationX,
	int destinationY,
	int destinationWidth,
	int destinationHeight,
	CombineMode combine,
	float opacity,
	ResizeInterpolationMode interpolationMode
)

Parameters

destinationGraphics: Type: System.Drawing.Graphics
A System.Drawing.Graphics object on which the current bitmap should be drawn.

destinationX: Type: System.Int32
The x-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the drawn image.

destinationY: Type: System.Int32
The y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the drawn image.

destinationWidth: Type: System.Int32
Width of the drawn image.

destinationHeight: Type: System.Int32
Height of the drawn image.

combine: Type: Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms.CombineMode
The images blending algorithm (plain pixels copying, alpha blending, bitwise operations, etc).

opacity: Type: System.Single
The opacity of the image in range [0, 1]. If 0, image is completely transparent, if 1, image is completely opaque.

interpolationMode: Type: Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms.ResizeInterpolationMode
The resize algorithm. Using this parameter you can select between speed and quality of resizing.

Remarks

The bitmap is drawn to the destination rectangle on the given System.Drawing.Graphics object with dimensions equal to the dimensions of the bitmap.

Note

If the bitmap has pixel format which is not GDI-compatible (e.g. extended pixel formats, CMYK, etc) method will automatically create a copy converted to the Format32bppArgb. That's why you always get it drawn, but if you are going to call this method multiple times, it is recommended to convert the bitmap to some GDI-compatible format (like Format32bppArgb) to increase the performance.

If you want this method to calculate width and height automatically, you can pass 0 to the corresponding arguments. The dimensions will be calculated with the following way:

If both width and heigth are 0, it will take source image dimensions (Width and Height properties). This way the image will not be resized during drawing.
If only one of arguments is 0, it will calculate this argument to save proportion. For example, the source image is 800x600, and you pass 400 as width and 0 as height. Height will be calculated to preserve aspect ratio of the image, i.e. it will be 300.
