i'm currently trying to crop an image, then send the crop image from the preview to a pictureBox but the pictureBox is showing both the original and the cropped combine.
im learning cropping from the Microsoft sample "CSWinFormCropImage". MS linke
here is the code i have been editing.
public partial class MainForm : Form
{
Boolean bHaveMouse;
Point ptOriginal = new Point();
Point ptLast = new Point();
Rectangle rectCropArea;
Image srcImage = null;
public MainForm()
{
InitializeComponent();
bHaveMouse = false;
}
private void BtnCrop_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
TargetPicBox.Size = new Size(rectCropArea.Width, rectCropArea.Height);
TargetPicBox.Refresh();
//Prepare a new Bitmap on which the cropped image will be drawn
Bitmap sourceBitmap = new Bitmap(SrcPicBox.Image, SrcPicBox.Width, SrcPicBox.Height);
using (Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(sourceBitmap))
{
g.DrawImage(sourceBitmap, new Rectangle(0, 0, TargetPicBox.Width, TargetPicBox.Height),
rectCropArea, GraphicsUnit.Pixel);
}
TargetPicBox.Image = sourceBitmap;
}
i have not edited any of the other code that controls the cropping tool. cause i think my issue is with BtnCrop_click and targetPicBox.Image = sourceBitmap.

I have 2 pictureBoxes on my Form. In the right pictureBox I can zoom and pan an image. The illustration on the left shows only the image. Unfortunately I can‘t copy the zoomed image from pictureBox1(right) into pictureBox2. How should i do that? I’m thankful for any hint!
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
string imgFile = #"C:\Users\Pictures\Clock.jpg";
img = Image.FromFile(imgFile);
Graphics g = this.CreateGraphics();
zoom = ((float)pictureBox1.Width / (float)img.Width) * (img.HorizontalResolution / g.DpiX);
pictureBox1.Paint += new PaintEventHandler(ImageBox_Paint);
}
private void ImageBox_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
{
e.Graphics.InterpolationMode = InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic;
e.Graphics.ScaleTransform(zoom, zoom);
e.Graphics.DrawImage(img, imgX, imgY);
}
private void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Bitmap newbmp= new Bitmap(pictureBox2.ClientSize.Width,pictureBox2.ClientSize.Height);
using (Bitmap oldbmp = new Bitmap(img, pictureBox1.ClientSize.Width, pictureBox1.ClientSize.Height))
{
using (Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(newbmp))
{
g.DrawImage(oldbmp, new Rectangle(0, 0,
pictureBox2.ClientSize.Width,pictureBox2.ClientSize.Height));
}
}
pictureBox2.Image = newbmp;
}
I made an user control and I draw a rectangle directly in the window, like this (this is a simplified version):
private int rec_len = 200;
private void Draw_()
{
Pen pn = new Pen( Color.Black, WIDTH_LINE );
Graphics graph = this.CreateGraphics();
graph.Clear( Color.Transparent );
this.Refresh();
graph.DrawRectangle( pn, 20, 10, rec_len, 40 );
this.Refresh();
graph.Dispose();
}
public void button_Build_Click( object sender, EventArgs e )
{ rec_len += 10; Draw_(); }
The strange thing is that the second refresh actually poses a problem: if I comment it out, the rectangle is visible, if I let it in the code, the rectangle is not visible. In the real code I have to draw more than a rectangle and I want the refresh at the end, otherwise the background is visible between the moment I erase old drawing and the moment the new one is ready.
The surface of a control is not stored: When you paint on a control, the drawing is not saved and need to be redrawn each time the control is repainted (After a refresh for example). To create a persistante graphic, you can create a bitmap, draw on the bitmap and assign this bitmap to the BackgroundImage property.
Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
void Initialize()
{
this.BackgroundImage = bmp;
}
private int rec_len = 200;
private void Draw_()
{
Pen pn = new Pen(Color.Black, WIDTH_LINE);
using (Graphics graph = Graphics.FromImage(bmp))
{
graph.Clear(Color.Transparent);
this.Refresh();
graph.DrawRectangle(pn, 20, 10, rec_len, 40);
this.Refresh();
}
}
public void button_Build_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { rec_len += 10; Draw_(); }
i want to print my form on the whole page but instead the picture looks like this :
http://i.stack.imgur.com/JSXh2.jpg
it looks very small that's why i need the form to be printed on the whole full page
here is my code :
private void button5_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
CaptureScreen();
printDocument1.Print();
}
private Bitmap _memoryImage;
private void CaptureScreen()
{
// put into using construct because Graphics objects do not
// get automatically disposed when leaving method scope
using (var myGraphics = CreateGraphics())
{
var s = Size;
_memoryImage = new Bitmap(s.Width, s.Height, myGraphics);
using (var memoryGraphics = Graphics.FromImage(_memoryImage))
{
memoryGraphics.CopyFromScreen(Location.X, Location.Y, 0, 0, s);
}
}
}
private void printDocument1_PrintPage(object sender, System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
var wScale = e.MarginBounds.Width / (float)_memoryImage.Width;
var hScale = e.MarginBounds.Height / (float)_memoryImage.Height;
// choose the smaller of the two scales
var scale = wScale < hScale ? wScale : hScale;
// apply scaling to the image
e.Graphics.ScaleTransform(scale, scale);
// print to default printer's page
e.Graphics.DrawImage(_memoryImage, 0, 0);
}
your help would be appreciated
try this to make a bitmap of your form:
Bitmap bm = new Bitmap(f1.Width, f1.Height);
this.DrawToBitmap(bm, new Rectangle(f1.Location, f1.Size));
maybe that's the problem! Report back if it works!
If you want to print it in landscape format than you have to rotate your bitmap using:
public Bitmap rotateInternalFunction(Bitmap bitmap)
{
bitmap.RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate90FlipNone);
return bitmap;
}
I want to save image from panel to bitmap and then I want to load the saved image after my Form comes out of minimizing mode.
Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(panel1.Width, panel1.Height);
panel1.DrawToBitmap(bmp, panel1.Bounds);
bmp.Save(#"C:\Test");
panel1.BackgroundImage = Image.FromFile(#"C:\Test");
And what event should I use for minimizing event?
P.S. I am a C# beginner.

Drawing your panel's contents. This should be done inside its Paint event handler, like this:
private void panel1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
{
using (Pen p = new Pen(Color.Red, 3))
{
// get the panel's Graphics instance
Graphics gr = e.Graphics;
// draw to panel
gr.DrawLine(p, new Point(30, 30), new Point(80, 120));
gr.DrawEllipse(p, 30, 30, 80, 120);
}
}
Saving your panel's contents as an image. This part should be done somewhere else (for example, when you click on a "Save" button):
private void saveButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
int width = panel1.Size.Width;
int height = panel1.Size.Height;
using (Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(width, height))
{
panel1.DrawToBitmap(bmp, new Rectangle(0, 0, width, height));
bmp.Save(#"C:\testBitmap.jpeg", ImageFormat.Jpeg);
}
}
class OriginalImage: Form
{
private Image image;
private PictureBox pb;
public OriginalImage()
{
pb = new PictureBox {SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.CenterImage};
pb.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.StretchImage;
Controls.Add(pb);
image = Image.FromFile(#"Image/original.jpg");
this.Width = image.Width;
this.Height = image.Height;
this.Text = "Original image";
this.Paint += new PaintEventHandler(Drawer);
}
public virtual void Drawer(object source, PaintEventArgs e)
{
Graphics g = pb.CreateGraphics();
g.DrawImage(image,0,0);
}
I call this create object OriginalImage in other form on button click, but image is not draw? Where is problem?
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var oi = new OriginalImage();
oi.Show();
}
}
You're creating a PictureBox and adding it to your controls, but you never actually use it (you're drawing the image manually in the Paint event). Why? This control is likely obscuring the drawing area of the form, as any controls go on top of whatever you draw in the Paint event.
In addition, you're getting the Graphics object by calling CreateGraphics on the PictureBox rather than the Form itself. This is wrong, as the PictureBox's Paint event will fire after this code, erasing whatever you draw.
I would recommend changing your OriginalForm code to the following:
class OriginalImage: Form
{
private Image image;
private PictureBox pb;
public OriginalImage()
{
pb = new PictureBox();
pb.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.StretchImage;
pb.Dock = DockStyle.Fill; // this will make the PictureBox occupy the
// whole form
Controls.Add(pb);
image = Image.FromFile(#"Image/original.jpg");
this.ClientSize = new Size(image.Width, image.Height); // this allows you to
// size the form while
// accounting for the
// border
this.Text = "Original image";
pb.Image = image; // use this instead of drawing it yourself.
}
}
