Namespace:  Rhino
Assembly:  RhinoCommon (in RhinoCommon.dll)
Since: 7.5
Syntax
Copy
public static bool IsNormalMap(
	this Bitmap bitmap,
	bool bLossyCompressionSource,
	out bool bPositiveZComponent
)

Parameters

bitmap
Type: System.DrawingBitmap

[Missing <param name="bitmap"/> documentation for "M:Rhino.BitmapExtensions.IsNormalMap(System.Drawing.Bitmap,System.Boolean,System.Boolean@)"]

bLossyCompressionSource
Type: SystemBoolean
True if the source of the bitmap is an image with lossy compression (e.g. jpg). False otherwise. The check will be less strict if the image can contain errors due to lossy compression.
bPositiveZComponent
Type: SystemBoolean
True if the image is a normal map with the z-component mapped to the range 0 .. +1. False if the image is a normal map with the z-component mapped to the range -1 .. +1.

Return Value

Type: Boolean
Returns true if the bitmap appears to be a normal map. False otherwise.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type Bitmap. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).
