Automatic Tile Stitching

ImageGear allows you to automatically stitch all image tiles during loading. Set the "STITCH_TILES" filter control parameter to TRUE to enable automatic tile stitching. In this mode:

Image loading functions load the whole image as if it were not tiled.
Tile counting functions report that the image is not tiled (has a single tile).
Header reading functions report full image dimensions rather than dimensions of a single tile.

Set the "STITCH_TILES" filter control parameter to FALSE to disable automatic tile stitching. In this mode:

Image loading functions load a single tile (by default - first image tile).
Tile counting functions report the actual number of tiles.
Header reading functions report the dimensions of a single tile.

Currently, the following ImageGear format filters support automatic tile stitching:
