    DefaultColor - value to return if the swatch isn't available

    Returns the color of the dominant swatch from the palette, as an RGB packed int.
    
    DefaultColor - value to return if the swatch isn't available
  • GetLightMutedColor (DefaultColor As Int) As Int
    Returns a muted and light color from the palette as an RGB packed int.
    
    DefaultColor - value to return if the swatch isn't available

    Returns a muted color from the palette as an RGB packed int.
    
    DefaultColor - value to return if the swatch isn't available
  • GetVibrantColor (DefaultColor As Int) As Int
    Returns the most vibrant color in the palette as an RGB packed int.
    
    DefaultColor - value to return if the swatch isn't available
  • IsInitialized As Boolean
  Properties:
  • DarkMutedSwatch As SwatchWrapper [read only]
    Returns a muted and dark swatch from the palette. Might be null.
  • DarkVibrantSwatch As SwatchWrapper [read only]
    Returns a dark and vibrant swatch from the palette. Might be null.
  • DominantSwatch As SwatchWrapper [read only]
    The dominant swatch is defined as the swatch with the greatest population (frequency) within the palette.
  • LightMutedSwatch As SwatchWrapper [read only]
    Returns a muted and light swatch from the palette. Might be null.
  • LightVibrantSwatch As SwatchWrapper [read only]
    Returns a light and vibrant swatch from the palette. Might be null.
  • MutedSwatch As SwatchWrapper [read only]
    Returns a muted swatch from the palette. Might be null.
  • VibrantSwatch As SwatchWrapper [read only]
    Returns the most vibrant swatch in the palette. Might be null.
• PaletteBuilder
  Events:
  • Generated (Palette as Palette As )
  Methods:
  • ClearRegion
    Clear a region which was previously set.
  • Generate As PaletteWrapper
    Generate and return the Palette synchronously.
    
    ATTENTION: This should not be called from the main UI thread. Use GenerateAsync() instead!
  • GenerateAsync
    Generate the Palette asynchronously. The Generated event will be fired with the resulting Palette object.
  • Initialize (EventName As String, Bitmap As Bitmap)
    Initializs the object.
    
    EventName - Event name for the events fired.
    Bitmap - A Bitmap that will be analyzed.
  • SetRegion (Left As Int, Top As Int, Right As Int, Bottom As Int)
    Set a region of the bitmap to be used exclusively when calculating the palette.
  Properties:
  • MaximumColorCount As Int [write only]
    Set the maximum number of colors to use in the quantization step when using a Bitmap as the source.
    
    Good values for depend on the source image type. For landscapes, good values are in the range 10-16. For images which are largely made up of people's faces then this value should be increased to ~24.
  • ResizeBitmapArea As Int [write only]
    Set the resize value when using a Bitmap as the source. If the bitmap's area is greater than the value specified, then the bitmap will be resized so that it's area matches area. If the bitmap is smaller or equal, the original is used as-is.
    
    This value has a large effect on the processing time. The larger the resized image is, the greater time it will take to generate the palette. The smaller the image is, the more detail is lost in the resulting image and thus less precision for color selection.
    
    The value is the number of pixels that the intermediary scaled down Bitmap should cover, or any value <= 0 to disable resizing.
• Swatch
  Methods:
  • IsInitialized As Boolean
    Check if the object is initialized.
  Properties:
  • BodyTextColor As Int [read only]
    Returns an appropriate color to use for any 'body' text which is displayed over this Swatch's color. This color is guaranteed to have sufficient contrast.
  • Population As Int [read only]
    The number of pixels represented by this swatch
  • RGB As Int [read only]
    This swatch's RGB color value
  • TitleTextColor As Int [read only]
    Returns an appropriate color to use for any 'title' text which is displayed over this Swatch's color. This color is guaranteed to have sufficient contrast.
