'Declaration
 
Public Shared Function Picturize( _

'Usage
 
Dim matchingMatrix As ImGearPicturizeMatchingMatrix
Dim distributionSettings As ImGearPicturizeDistributionSettings
Dim mixingSettings As ImGearPicturizeMixingSettings
Dim value As ImGearRasterPage
 
value = ImGearEffects.Picturize(matchingMatrix, distributionSettings, mixingSettings)

Parameters

matchingMatrix

Auxiliary object, containing result of matching the cell images against fragments of the source image.

distributionSettings

Specifies distribution settings for Picturize.

mixingSettings

Specifies how the cell images will be adjusted before placing to the main image.

Return Value

This method uses a significant amount of calculations, so it has been split into three stages:

Loading and preprocessing cell images, scaling them to their destination size in the picturized image. This stage is done by creation of an ImGearPicturizePreprocessedCollection class object.

Matching cell images to fragments of the main image. This stage is done by creation of a ImGearPicturizeMatchingMatrix class object, which takes ImGearPicturizePreprocessedCollection class on input.Distributing the cell images over the source image, and adjusting their colors to match the main image better. This is done by calling the Picturize method.

The result of the Picturize method depends greatly on how similar the images in the cell image collection are relative to the source image. Also, for best result, the number of images in the cell image collection should be greater than the number of cells in the picturized image.
