Property Value

The application-defined data for the ImageNode object.

Remarks

Use this property to add your own data to the ImageNode object.

Example

The following example adds an ImageNode to an InkAnalyzer, theInkAnalyzer, for an Image, theImage. It sets the location of the ImageNode to the location of the Image and the Data property to the Source property of the Image.

' Add image node
Dim pictureNode As ImageNode = _
    CType(theInkAnalyzer.RootNode.CreateSubNode(ContextNodeType.Image), _
    ImageNode)

' Set the location of the image node
Dim imageTop As Double = InkCanvas.GetTop(theImage)
Dim imageLeft As Double = InkCanvas.GetLeft(theImage)

Dim imageBounds As New Rect(imageLeft, imageTop, theImage.Width, theImage.Height)
pictureNode.SetLocation(New AnalysisRegion(imageBounds))

' Serialize the image to a byte array and set ImageNode.Data to the array.
' theImage.Source is a BitmapImage.
Dim bmp As New BmpBitmapEncoder()
bmp.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(CType(theImage.Source, BitmapImage)))
Dim stream As New System.IO.MemoryStream()
Try
    bmp.Save(stream)
    pictureNode.Data = stream.ToArray()
Finally
    stream.Dispose()
End Try

// Add image node
ImageNode pictureNode = (ImageNode)
    theInkAnalyzer.RootNode.CreateSubNode(ContextNodeType.Image);

// Set the location of the image node
double imageTop = InkCanvas.GetTop(theImage);
double imageLeft = InkCanvas.GetLeft(theImage);

Rect imageBounds = new Rect(imageLeft, imageTop, theImage.Width, theImage.Height);
pictureNode.SetLocation(new AnalysisRegion(imageBounds));

// Serialize the image to a byte array and set ImageNode.Data to the array.
// theImage.Source is a BitmapImage.
BmpBitmapEncoder bmp = new BmpBitmapEncoder();
bmp.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create((BitmapImage)theImage.Source));
using (System.IO.MemoryStream stream = new System.IO.MemoryStream())
{
    bmp.Save(stream);
    pictureNode.Data = stream.ToArray();
}
