Overlay on raster image with VB6

Hi, i am trying LT 14.5 Vector Pro.
Is possible add vector overlay on raster image using VB6?
The example "Vector and Raster overlay demo" is good for me, but i need to build it with VB6.
Thanks!

Mauro

Re: Overlay on raster image with VB6

Hello,

To do this you need to load the raster image on LEAD Main OCX control and load the vector image on LEAD Vector Control. Then make both controls hidden (.Visible = False). Then you need to use the Render method as follows:
+-----------------------+
Private Sub Form_Paint()
   If LEAD1.Bitmap <> 0 Then 'Use main OCX here
      LEAD1.Render Me.hdc, 0, 0, 0, 0
   End If
   If Not LEADVector1.IsEmpty Then
      LEADVector1.Render Me.hdc, 1, 1, Me.ScaleWidth / Screen.TwipsPerPixelX, Me.ScaleHeight / Screen.TwipsPerPixelY
   End If
End Sub
+-----------------------+

Thanks,
Maen Badwan

Re: Overlay on raster image with VB6

There's a SetOverlayImage() method for the RasterImage object. Have you looked at that? Search for "GetOverlayImage" in our .NET documentation and we have sample code that shows you how to set and get an overlay image. Let me know if you have any questions.

Re: Overlay on raster image with VB6

In that case, what you will need to do is first load the vector file as a RasterImage and then use the SetOverlayImage() method on the raster RasterImage. But the thing is that the Vector capability is only available in C/C++. We don't have it in .NET, but we have a work around here:

http://support.leadtools.com/SupportPortal/cs/forums/21587/ShowPost.aspx

That shows you how to load a vector file in .NET and rasterize it. Once you have it rasterized it's simply a matter of loading the other image with RasterCodecs.Load() and then calling SetOverlayImage() on it and passing the rasterized vector image to it. You could also use the CombineCommand depending on what you want to achieve. The demo in the link above gets you there about 90%, the rest is just adding a few lines of code to do the overlay.
