FrameFilter

FrameFilter is the base class of all frame filters. It contains methods to access the filter's parameters, display a configuration dialog and save filter settings. This class provides the interface to use an existing filter.

To create a frame filter, use ICImagingControl.FrameFilterCreate.

Example

The following example illustrates how to create an instance of the first available frame filter and set it as device frame filter:

[C#]
// Retrieve the first FrameFilterInfo object.
FrameFilterInfo info = ICImagingControl1.FrameFilterInfos[0];
 
// Create the frame filter to which the info object refers.
FrameFilter filter = ICImagingControl1.FrameFilterCreate( info );
 
// Set the  frame filter as the device frame filter.
ICImagingControl1.DeviceFrameFilters.Add( filter );
 
// Start live mode.
ICImagingControl1.LiveStart();

[VB.NET]
' Retrieve the first FrameFilterInfo object.
Dim info As FrameFilterInfo = IcImagingControl1.FrameFilterInfos(0)
 
' Create the frame filter to which the info object refers.
Dim filter As FrameFilter = IcImagingControl1.FrameFilterCreate(info)
 
' Set the  frame filter as the device frame filter.
IcImagingControl1.DeviceFrameFilters.Add(filter)
 
' Start live mode.
IcImagingControl1.LiveStart()
