    GetImageLayout Method
    In This Topic
    Gets the image layout of the selected TWAIN device.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public Function GetImageLayout() As ImGearDoubleRectangle
    'Usage
     
    Dim instance As ImGearTWAIN
    Dim value As ImGearDoubleRectangle
     
    value = instance.GetImageLayout()
    public ImGearDoubleRectangle GetImageLayout()
    public: ImGearDoubleRectangle GetImageLayout(); 
    public:
    ImGearDoubleRectangle GetImageLayout(); 

    Return Value

    ImageGear.Core.ImGearDoubleRectangle that represents the physical bounding box of the region to be acquired.

    Note: Use only the Left, Top, Right, and Bottom properties of the return value.

    Exceptions
    ExceptionDescription
    Thrown if this method is called while there is not an open connection with a Data Source.
    Remarks

    Prior to calling this method:

    • Call OpenSource to select the desired Data Source.
    • Set the ICAP_UNITS capability, if inches (default) is not the desired unit of measure for the returned bounding box.

    Note: Only the Left, Top, Right and Bottom properties of the returned ImageGear.Core.ImGearDoubleRectangle should be used. The Width and Height properties should not be used, because they assume endpoint-inclusive semantics. Using endpoint-inclusive semantics, a rectangle with left, top, right, and bottom coordinates all equal to 0 is one pixel wide and one pixel tall. So, for example, the Width property is calculated as Right - Left + 1. This is not appropriate for a TWAIN image layout rectangle.
