Rotate Class

This class enables you to rotate the bitmap on arbitrary angle.

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

Syntax

Visual Basic

Public NotInheritable Class Rotate _
	Inherits BitmapTransform

public sealed class Rotate : BitmapTransform

Remarks

Main parameter of this transform is an Angle specifying how much degrees to rotate the image on. You can also select interpolation algorithm with InterpolationMode property. It specifies how to calculate intermediate points. Different algorithms produces different quality, but as usual the higher quality it produces, the slower algorithm works.

If you need to rotate on 90, 180, or 270 degrees, you should consider using RotateAndFlip transform instead of this one as it works noticeable faster.

Examples

Visual Basic

'Rotate at 5 degrees with medium quality
Dim rotate As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms.Rotate
rotate.Angle = 5
rotate.BackgroundColor = Aurigma.GraphicsMill.RgbColor.Yellow
rotate.InterpolationMode = Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms.InterpolationMode.MediumQuality
rotate.ApplyTransform(bitmap)

//Rotate at 5 degrees with medium quality
Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms.Rotate rotate =
    new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms.Rotate();
rotate.Angle = 5;
rotate.BackgroundColor = Aurigma.GraphicsMill.RgbColor.Yellow;
rotate.InterpolationMode = Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms.InterpolationMode.MediumQuality;
rotate.ApplyTransform(bitmap);

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).
