Pretty self-explanatory question. I'm trying to see if I can do sprite animation in Visual Basic and, while I can use a Graphics object to translate a bitmap down a few pixels, I have absolutely no idea how to erase the bitmap drawn in its former position. Is there any way to erase the old image before the new image is drawn onto the form?
View 14 RepliesI need to write a code to find identical adjacent pixels in a bitmap image. It should work as the 'magical wand' in Photoshop. My images are always black and white (white background with car parts drawed in black). Given the x,y coordinate for a single black pixel in the whole image, the code should find (and paint with another color, say red) all other black pixels that are linked to that one, and so on, until all linked black points will be painted in red.

All other parts will remain black. Does it make sense?At the end, there are two pictures (before and after) to help understanding what I need to do to the images.I tried a simple 8-pixel adjacent approach for every pixel (starting on initial coordinate) but it turns out into a very stupid and endless looping algorhitm.

i mostly use C and assembly, but i thought i would give VB.NET a shot. i used to use VB6 all the time, so wanted to see how different this is. in VB2010, i'm trying to modify the pixels of a Bitmap object and then make it show up in a PictureBox on the form. i get no errors, but this code does not show the new bitmap after it runs.."disp" is the name of the PictureBox on the form.[code]

Was just wondering if there is a way to quickly clear all pixels in a bitmap without creating a new one?
View 1 RepliesMy goal is to iterate through each pixel determining whether it is black or white. Ideally I want to do this one row at a time (so I can count the number of black pixels in each row). This is a bitonal image.I tried to get it started, but I don't understand what value(s) I'm supposed to be polling for. The following code takes a stab at it (i.e. makes a guess as to what value I'm supposed to check) and then outputs that value to a textfile.When I read the textfile, though, it doesn't look like anything useful.This code is an attempted modification of some code found in a CodeProject article.[code]
View 5 RepliesI have scanned a few img's on 600 DPI. When i load them into a Bitmap class They have Vertical and Horizontal Resolution of 96 PPI To my calculation that is very close to 38 Pixels per centimeter. Now the image that I scanned is 4.5 Centimeter (1.77165354 Inch) In Diameter but When I measure It the 4.5 cm img is close to 1080 pixel in Diameter which is 240 Pixels/Centimeter (609.6 Pixels/inch) What is the correct way to get the actual Pixels per inch/centimeter from a bitmap or was it set incorrectly by my scanner ?
View 7 RepliesI've been trying to mess around with image recognition in C# for some time now. But to do that, I need acces to all the pixels in the bitmap individually. At the moment, I'm using getPixel and setPixel. It works, but it's VERY slow. Is there any faster way to acces pixels in a bitmap? Unsafe code maybe?

How can I evaluate pixels within a Binary Image?What I have done so far is to take the image and use it's "getPixel" method and do a comparison of this pixel to black/white. But that can't be right... Can it? It's a binary image, I should be evaluating each pixel as true/false. Correct?

Unfortunately this needs to sweep through all the pixels, and it's EXTREMELY slow... method to get all colors in an image without sweeping through all pixels?
I'm trying to make a -what i thought would be simple app.My intention was to build program that:1) i'd provide a grayscale image2) the program would count the black pixels the grey pixels the more grey pixels etc. (the hue) and the white3) would make the percentage sum of all pixels, that is: 300.000 black pixels (rgb 0 0 0) etc. given that 0 is the black, 100 the white. e.g a simple grayscale image is 55.2 white
This was my way and i don't think that is useful:
First of a button to convert the image to greyscale:
Dim bm as new Bitmap(source.Width,source.Height)
Dim x
Dim y
[CODE]...
Secondly, -and that's the stupid way- i did -or better i wanted to do- this: i put the code to dynamically create labels, each label having the colour of a pixel as background colour and as text the colour converted to rgb
The third step which i intended to do (i couldn't get pas two) was to sum up the labels etc.
What im trying to do is to minimize the file size of an image to as low as possible.Its 640x480 and i need to be 30kb or even 20 kb in file size...

I am trying to use DrawString to write text as an image and then rotate it 90 degrees. It works fine with both a bitmap or directly on a PictureBox, but the big difference is in the quality. The PictureBox text drawn has great quality and looks nice. When I draw it on an image it looks horrible and blocky. I've made a few changes to try and get it to look nicer, but it doesn't look nearly as nice as it should.
