InterpolationMode Enumeration
.NET Framework 4
The InterpolationMode enumeration specifies the algorithm that is used when images are scaled or rotated.
Assembly: System.Drawing (in System.Drawing.dll)
| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Invalid | Equivalent to the Invalid element of the QualityMode enumeration. | |
| Default | Specifies default mode. | |
| Low | Specifies low quality interpolation. | |
| High | Specifies high quality interpolation. | |
| Bilinear | Specifies bilinear interpolation. No prefiltering is done. This mode is not suitable for shrinking an image below 50 percent of its original size. | |
| Bicubic | Specifies bicubic interpolation. No prefiltering is done. This mode is not suitable for shrinking an image below 25 percent of its original size. | |
| NearestNeighbor | Specifies nearest-neighbor interpolation. | |
| HighQualityBilinear | Specifies high-quality, bilinear interpolation. Prefiltering is performed to ensure high-quality shrinking. | |
| HighQualityBicubic | Specifies high-quality, bicubic interpolation. Prefiltering is performed to ensure high-quality shrinking. This mode produces the highest quality transformed images. |
Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows XP SP2 x64 Edition, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
The .NET Framework does not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.
Suggestion for future documentation
The modes could be listed in order of speed/quality, for those who wish to create fast draft-quality previews as well as the highest quality output.
