TIOParams.ImagingAnnot

TIOParams.ImagingAnnot


Declaration

property ImagingAnnot: TIEImagingAnnot;


Description

Provides access to the (Wang) imaging annotations loaded (or to be saved) from a TIFF.
Using the TIEImagingAnnot object you can create new objects, copy to or from a TImageEnView (as layers) or TImageEnVect (as vectorial objects), or just draw onto the bitmap.


ImagingAnnot vs ImageEnAnnot

ImagingAnnot handles annotations that are supported by other third party applications, but does not support all layer types of TImageEnView. ImageEnAnnot supports all layer types, but are not understood by other applications.


Example

// Load an image and all annotations from input.tif. This allows the annotations to be edited
ImageEnView1.IO.LoadFromFile('C:\input.tif');
ImageEnView1.IO.Params.ImagingAnnot.CopyToTImageEnView( ImageEnView1 );

// Load an image and all annotations from input.tif, but just draw annotation on the image (display only, cannot be edited):
ImageEnView1.IO.LoadFromFile('C:\input.tif');
ImageEnView1.IO.Params.ImagingAnnot.DrawToBitmap( ImageEnView1.IEBitmap, True );
ImageEnView1.Update();
