BitmapViewer.scaleToActualSize Property

Get/sets a value that specifies whether to take into account the image resolution (DPI) during displaying.

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

Syntax

Java Script 
function get_scaleToActualSize();
function set_scaleToActualSize(value);

Property Value

The value that specifies whether to take into account the image resolution (DPI) during displaying.

Remarks

The BitmapViewer supports displaying image in its physical size. Actual physical size of the image is measured in metrical units (inches, centimeters) and depends on image resolution. To apply this functionality you should set scaleToActualSize property to true. In this mode the control takes into account the resolution of the image, that allows you to display it in actual physical size when image resolution differs from monitor resolution. Also, this feature is useful for images with different vertical and horizontal resolutions, e.g. faxes.

Note

When the scaleToActualSize is true the BitmapViewer will resize the image in memory before displaying it. Therefore it may cause unnecessary performance overhead if you do not care about physical resolution. That is why we recommend to use this feature only when it is actually needed.

This property corresponds to BitmapViewer.ScaleToActualSize server-side member.
