AlphaToGrayscaleFilter Class

Copies the alpha channel in the image to the color channels, resulting in a grayscale representation of the alpha channel.

public sealed class AlphaToGrayscaleFilter : IFilter, 
	__IAlphaToGrayscaleFilterPublicNonVirtuals

The alpha information is no longer present in the output.

This filter is primarily intended for conversion of an alpha based mask to a grayscale mask suitable for use with ImageFusionFilter or BlendFilter.

This sample loads image with alpha channel and applies the filter to it
using (var filterEffect = new FilterEffect(source))
{
    // Initialize the filter and add the filter to the FilterEffect collection
    var filter = new AlphaToGrayscaleFilter();

    filterEffect.Filters = new IFilter[] { filter };

    // Create a target where the filtered image will be rendered to
    var target = new WriteableBitmap(width, height);

    // Create a new renderer which outputs WriteableBitmaps
    using (var renderer = new WriteableBitmapRenderer(filterEffect, target))
    {
        // Render the image with the filter(s)
        await renderer.RenderAsync();

        // Set the output image to Image control as a source
        ImageControl.Source = target;
    }

    await SaveEffectAsync(filterEffect, "AlphaToGrayscaleFilter.jpg", outputImageSize);
}
