BitmapEncoder.Palette Property
.NET Framework 4.5
Gets or sets a value that represents the BitmapPalette of an encoded bitmap.
Namespace: System.Windows.Media.Imaging
Assembly: PresentationCore (in PresentationCore.dll)
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | The BitmapPalette value that is passed to the encoder is null. |
The following example demonstrates how to apply a custom palette to a Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) image and subsequently encode it.
int width = 128;
int height = width;
int stride = width/8;
byte[] pixels = new byte[height*stride];
// Try creating a new image with a custom palette.
List<System.Windows.Media.Color> colors = new List<System.Windows.Media.Color>();
colors.Add(System.Windows.Media.Colors.Red);
colors.Add(System.Windows.Media.Colors.Blue);
colors.Add(System.Windows.Media.Colors.Green);
BitmapPalette myPalette = new BitmapPalette(colors);
// Creates a new empty image with the pre-defined palette
BitmapSource image = BitmapSource.Create(
width,
height,
96,
96,
PixelFormats.Indexed1,
myPalette,
pixels,
stride);
FileStream stream = new FileStream("empty.tif", FileMode.Create);
TiffBitmapEncoder encoder = new TiffBitmapEncoder();
TextBlock myTextBlock = new TextBlock();
myTextBlock.Text = "Codec Author is: " + encoder.CodecInfo.Author.ToString();
encoder.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(image));
MessageBox.Show(myPalette.Colors.Count.ToString());
encoder.Save(stream);
