Scale image using ComponentOne Bitmap for WinForms

The following code illustrates scaling in and scaling out an image on button clicks. This example uses the sample created in the Quick start section.

Visual Basic
C#

Visual Basic

Private Sub ApplyTransform(t As BaseTransform)
    Dim newBitmap = bitmap.Transform(t)
    bitmap.Dispose()
    bitmap = newBitmap
    selection = New RectF(1.0F, 1.0F)
    UpdateImage()
End Sub

'Event to scale out the image on button click
Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) _
    Handles Button2.Click
    Dim px As Integer = CInt(bitmap.PixelWidth * 1.6F + 0.5F)
    Dim py As Integer = CInt(bitmap.PixelHeight * 1.6F + 0.5F)
    ApplyTransform(New Scaler(px, py, _
                    C1.Win.Bitmap.InterpolationMode.HighQualityCubic))
End Sub

'Event to scale in the image on button click
Private Sub Button3_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) _
    Handles Button3.Click
    Dim px As Integer = CInt(bitmap.PixelWidth * 0.625F + 0.5F)
    Dim py As Integer = CInt(bitmap.PixelHeight * 0.625F + 0.5F)
    If px > 0 AndAlso py > 0 Then
        ApplyTransform(New Scaler(px, py, _
                        C1.Win.Bitmap.InterpolationMode.HighQualityCubic))
    End If
