Image Property, SftPictureObject Object

Defines the image object using a GDI+ image.

Syntax

Get

VB.NET	GDIPlusImage = object.Image As Integer
VB	GDIPlusImage = object.Image As LONG_PTR
C#.NET	int GDIPlusImage = object.Image;
VC++	LONG_PTR GDIPlusImage = object->Image; LONG_PTR GDIPlusImage = object->GetImage();
C	HRESULT object->get_Image(LONG_PTR* GDIPlusImage);

Put

VB.NET	object.Image = GDIPlusImage As Integer
VB	object.Image = GDIPlusImage As LONG_PTR
C#.NET	int object.Image = GDIPlusImage;
VC++	LONG_PTR object->Image = GDIPlusImage; void object->PutImage(LONG_PTR GDIPlusImage);
C	HRESULT object->put_Image(LONG_PTR GDIPlusImage);

object

A SftPictureObject object.

GDIPlusImage

Defines the image object using a GDI+ image.

Comments

The Image property defines the image object using a GDI+ image. The image remains owned by the application and must remain valid as long as it is used by the control. Once it is no longer needed, it must be deleted by the application. Most languages, except C++, automatically delete the object when it is no longer needed so no action is usually necessary.

The Image property offers support for PNG, TIFF, JPEG, GIF, Exif, EMF+, EMF (GDI+ images) with full support for alpha-blended (translucent and semi-transparent) images.

Typically, .NET applications use the NETImageObject property to define an image, C and C++ applications use BitmapHandle or Image, VB6 and other COM applications use the Picture property.

SetImage can also be used to define the image object using a GDI image, but is also assign ownership of the GDI+ image to the control, so it automatically deletes the object when it is no longer needed. This is typically only used by C++ applications that have direct access to GDI+ classes.
