ImageGear for .NET User Guide > Introduction > ImageGear for .NET Namespaces > ImageGear.ART Namespace |
Using the ImageGear.ART Namespace, you can annotate any image that your application loads into ImageGear. The annotations are called "ART marks", or "marks" for short. Mark objects are created by using their constructors, but their actual life starts when they are added into the ImGearARTPage Class. An ART page can be associated with one or more ImGearPage Class objects. The association is done by using ImGearPageDisplay Class properties: Page and ARTPage. ART internally tracks the marks that are associated with the image and ensures that marks are always displayed on the correct part of the image (even as the image is scrolled, rotated, flipped, and zoomed). Your application can save an image with marks into a separate file in legacy .ART file format or .XML file format. Any time the image is reloaded, the ART marks can be reloaded with a simple function call.
The ImageGear.ART Namespace is split between the following assemblies:
