Interface IDisplay
Display interface
Namespace: ic4
Assembly: ic4dotnet.dll
Syntax
public interface IDisplayRemarks
To create a display, create an instance of a class implementing IDisplay, e.g. EmbeddedDisplay, FloatingDisplay or WinForms.Display.
Display objects are generally used in two distinct ways:
- The display is connected to a data stream when calling StreamSetup(Sink, IDisplay, StreamSetupOption) or StreamSetup(IDisplay, StreamSetupOption), automatically displaying all images from the opened device.
- ImageBuffer objects are displayed manually by calling DisplayBuffer(ImageBuffer).
Some functions, such as StreamSetup(IDisplay, StreamSetupOption), takes shared ownership of the display object. The display is kept alive by the grabber object even if the display object was disposed.
A zoom effect can be created by setting RenderPosition to Custom, and RenderWidth and RenderHeight to a multiple of the width and height of the image buffer(s) to be displayed. Set RenderLeft and RenderTop to negative values to specifiy the top left corner of the visible image.
