Re: Make edges smooth after cliping.

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Clipping and drawing are two different principles.

Drawing that uses antialiasing attempts to hide the alias effects of the basic pixel resolution of the output device by drawing on pixels that are outside of the shape and creating an average colour containing a mix of the origianal and new colours. The result is that the result appears to be better but is in fact not a true representation.

Clipping on the other hand, is a mechanical process of including or excluding pixels from a certain area. The clip boundary falls on the pixel boundaries and so the pixel cannot be antialiased.

Try filling a path with a brush created from the image.

Greeting!

I'm using the following code.

// Create graphics path represented by rectangle with rounded angles
GraphicsPath roundedRectangle = this.GetRoundedRectPath(rect, 13);
g.PixelOffsetMode = PixelOffsetMode.HighQuality;
g.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.HighQuality;
// Set clipping region
g.Clip = new Region(roundedRectangle);
// Draw loaded previously image
g.DrawImage(bmp, 10, 10);

After this code execution i get clipped image. It is clipped with
rectangle with rounded angles. But i have a problem: edges of the
clipped image is rough. Is there any possibility to make the edges of
clipped image smooth?

I really appreciate Your help and thanks in advance.
