PngBitmapDecoder Class
Defines a decoder for Portable Network Graphics (PNG) encoded images.
Assembly: PresentationCore (in PresentationCore.dll)
The following examples show how to decode and encode a Portable Network Graphics (PNG) image using the specific PngBitmapDecoder and PngBitmapEncoder objects. For the complete sample, see PNG Encoder and Decoder Sample.
This example demonstrates how to decode a PNG image using a PngBitmapDecoder from a FileStream.
// Open a Stream and decode a PNG image Stream imageStreamSource = new FileStream("smiley.png", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read); PngBitmapDecoder decoder = new PngBitmapDecoder(imageStreamSource, BitmapCreateOptions.PreservePixelFormat, BitmapCacheOption.Default); BitmapSource bitmapSource = decoder.Frames[0]; // Draw the Image Image myImage = new Image(); myImage.Source = bitmapSource; myImage.Stretch = Stretch.None; myImage.Margin = new Thickness(20);
This example demonstrates how to encode a BitmapSource into a PNG image using a PngBitmapEncoder.
int width = 128; int height = 128; int stride = width; byte[] pixels = new byte[height * stride]; // Define the image palette BitmapPalette myPalette = BitmapPalettes.Halftone256; // Creates a new empty image with the pre-defined palette BitmapSource image = BitmapSource.Create( width, height, 96, 96, PixelFormats.Indexed8, myPalette, pixels, stride); FileStream stream = new FileStream("new.png", FileMode.Create); PngBitmapEncoder encoder = new PngBitmapEncoder(); TextBlock myTextBlock = new TextBlock(); myTextBlock.Text = "Codec Author is: " + encoder.CodecInfo.Author.ToString(); encoder.Interlace = PngInterlaceOption.On; encoder.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(image)); encoder.Save(stream);
