ImageGear for .NET
Developing the Application
  1. First, add necessary using statements. Open the code for the form by right-clicking on the form and clicking View Code. At the top of the code, add the following statements:
    C#
    Copy Code
    using System.IO;
    using System.Diagnostics;
    using ImageGear;
    using ImageGear.Core;
    using ImageGear.Windows.Forms;
    using ImageGear.Display;
    using ImageGear.Processing;
    using ImageGear.Formats;
  2. Next add the following fields to Form1:
    C#
    Copy Code
    // holds the image data 
     private ImGearPage imGearPage = null;
     // controls how the page is displayed 
     private ImGearPageDisplay imGearPageDisplay = null;
  3. If you are using a Deployment (Runtime) licensing, add the license initialization code to the Form1 constructor(Form1()) just before the call to InitializeComponent. This is not necessary if you are using an Evaluation or Development (Toolkit) license.
    C#
    Copy Code
    //***The SetSolutionName, SetSolutionKey and possibly the SetOEMLicenseKey 
    //methods must be called to distribute the runtime.***
    //ImGearLicense.SetSolutionName("YourSolutionName");
    //ImGearLicense.SetSolutionKey(12345, 12345, 12345, 12345);
    //Manually Reported Runtime licenses also require the following method 
    //call to SetOEMLicenseKey.
    //ImGearLicense.SetOEMLicenseKey("2.0.AStringForOEMLicensing...");
  4. Below the code from the prior step, add the following calls to initialize the referenced formats:
    C#
    Copy Code
    // Support for common formats:
    ImGearCommonFormats.Initialize();
  5. Now, add the following code to the Load Page menu handler:
    C#
    Copy Code
    private void loadPageToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        OpenFileDialog openFileDialog1 = new OpenFileDialog();
        openFileDialog1.Filter =
        ImGearFileFormats.GetSavingFilter(ImGearSavingFormats.UNKNOWN);
       
        if (DialogResult.OK == openFileDialog1.ShowDialog())
        {
            using (FileStream stream =
                new FileStream(openFileDialog1.FileName, FileMode.Open,
                    FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read))
            {
                try
                {
                    // Load the image into the page 
                    imGearPage = ImGearFileFormats.LoadPage(stream, 0);
                }
                catch (ImGearException ex)
                {
                    Debug.WriteLine(ex.Message);
                }
            }
            if (null != imGearPage && null != imGearPage.DIB &&
            !imGearPage.DIB.IsEmpty())
            {
                // create a new page display 
                imGearPageDisplay = new ImGearPageDisplay(imGearPage);
                // associate the page display with the page view 
                imGearPageView1.Display = imGearPageDisplay;
                // cause the page view to repaint 
                imGearPageView1.Invalidate();
            }
        } 
    }
    The code above utilizes the following:
    ImGearPageDisplay Class Constructs a new PageDisplay object for the given page.
    ImGearPageView Class.Invalidate Invalidates the control thus causing it to repaint.
    ImGearFileFormats Class.LoadPage Method Loads a file from a given stream and returns a new ImGearPage Class.
    ImGearFileFormats Class.GetSavingFilter Method Gets a filter string which can be passed to a windows common dialog filter member.
  6. Now go to the handler created for the Zoom In menu item. Add the following code to the routine:
    C#
    Copy Code
    if (null != imGearPageDisplay && !imGearPageDisplay.Page.DIB.IsEmpty())
    {
        // Get the current zoom info 
        ImGearZoomInfo igZoomInfo = imGearPageDisplay.GetZoomInfo(imGearPageView1);
       
        // Increase the zoom 
        igZoomInfo.Horizontal.Value = igZoomInfo.Horizontal.Value * 1.25;
        igZoomInfo.Vertical.Value = igZoomInfo.Vertical.Value * 1.25;
        igZoomInfo.Horizontal.Fixed = true;
        igZoomInfo.Vertical.Fixed = true;
       
        // Set the new zoom values and repaint the view 
        imGearPageDisplay.UpdateZoomFrom(igZoomInfo);
        imGearPageView1.Invalidate();
    }
    The code above utilizes:
    ImGearPageDisplay Class.GetZoomInfo Method Retrieves the current zoom information from the display and page view.
    ImGearPageDisplay Class.UpdateZoomFrom Method Sets new zoom values from the given ImGearZoomInfo Structure object.
    ImGearZoomInfo Structure Holds horizontal and vertical zoom values and settings.
  7. Add the following code to the Zoom Out click handler:
    C#
    Copy Code
    if (null != imGearPageDisplay && !imGearPageDisplay.Page.DIB.IsEmpty())
    {
        // Get the current zoom info 
        ImGearZoomInfo igZoomInfo = imGearPageDisplay.GetZoomInfo(imGearPageView1);
       
        igZoomInfo.Horizontal.Value = igZoomInfo.Horizontal.Value * (1/1.25);
        igZoomInfo.Vertical.Value = igZoomInfo.Vertical.Value * (1/1.25);
        igZoomInfo.Horizontal.Fixed = true;
        igZoomInfo.Vertical.Fixed = true;
        // Set the new zoom values and repaint the view 
        imGearPageDisplay.UpdateZoomFrom(igZoomInfo);
        imGearPageView1.Invalidate();
    }
  8. Add the code below to the Rotate 90 click handler:
    C#
    Copy Code
    if (null != imGearPageDisplay && null != imGearPage && !imGearPageDisplay.Page.DIB.IsEmpty())
        try
        {
            ImGearProcessing.Rotate(imGearPage, ImGearRotationValues.VALUE_90);
            imGearPageView1.Invalidate();
        }
        catch (ImGearException ex)
        {
            Debug.WriteLine(ex.Message);
        }
    The code above utilizes:
    ImGearProcessing Class.Rotate Method Rotates the given page by the given amount.
  9. The code for the click handlers for the Rotate 180 and Rotate 270 menu items are the same as above except that the amount to rotate by is ImGearRotationValues.VALUE_180 and ImGearRotationValues.VALUE_270 respectively.
  10. Lastly, we can add the click code for the Exit menu item as shown below:
    C#
    Copy Code
    this.Close();
  11. And now you are ready to compile and run the finished application.
