Swirl Class

This class enables you to apply swirl transform.

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

Syntax

Visual Basic

Public NotInheritable Class Swirl _
	Inherits BitmapTransform

public sealed class Swirl : BitmapTransform

Remarks

For swirl transform you can specify the center of the swirl (using the Center property) and swirl strength (ScaleFactor property).

Essential parameter of all the geometric Transforms (including swirl) is an interpolation algorithm. It specifies how to calculate intermediate points. Different algorithms produces different quality, but as usual the higher quality it produces, the slower algorithm works. You can select interpolation algorithm with InterpolationMode property.

All the coordinates and sizes are measured in units specified with Unit property.

Supported Pixel Formats

Member Name	Description
Format8bppGrayScale	8 bits per pixel. Grayscale. 8 bits are used for luminosity level.
Format16bppGrayScale	16 bits per pixel. Grayscale. All 16 bits are used for luminosity level (extended pixel format).
Format16bppAGrayScale	16 bits per pixel. Grayscale with alpha channel. 8 bits are used for alpha channel and other 8 bits are used for luminosity level.
Format32bppAGrayScale	32 bits per pixel. Grayscale with alpha channel. 16 bits are used for alpha channel and other 16 bits are used for luminosity level (extended pixel format).
Format24bppRgb	24 bits per pixel. RGB. 8 bits each are used for the red, green, and blue components.
Format32bppRgb	32 bits per pixel. RGB. 8 bits each are used for the red, green, and blue components. The rest 8 bits are unused.
Format32bppArgb	32 bits per pixel. RGB with alpha channel. 8 bits each are used for the alpha, red, green, and blue components.
Format48bppRgb	48 bits per pixel. RGB. 16 bits each are used for the red, green, and blue components (extended pixel format).
Format64bppArgb	64 bits per pixel. RGB with alpha channel. 16 bits each are used for the alpha, red, green, and blue components (extended pixel format).
Format32bppCmyk	32 bits per pixel. CMYK. 8 bits each are used for the cyan, magenta, yellow, and black components.
Format64bppCmyk	64 bits per pixel. CMYK. 16 bits each are used for the cyan, magenta, yellow, and black components (extended pixel format).
Format80bppAcmyk	80 bits per pixel. CMYK with alpha channel. 16 bits each are used for the alpha, cyan, magenta, yellow, and black components (extended pixel format).
