Hi,

I'm trying to build a web application where in I need to overlay multiple images onto one background for which I'm using combiner.ApplyMaskTransform function.

Everytime, when I try to do so, the system runs into 100% CPU usage and takes close to 3-4 minutes to combine the images. Is this normal? If not could anyone point me what I need to change to have the process completed faster.

Below is my code:
'Background image.
Dim background As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap(str)
'Mask.
Dim mask As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap(strMask)
'Create the transform.
Dim combiner As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms.Combiner
combiner.CombineMode = Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms.CombineMode.Copy

'Photos for the collage.
Dim photo1 As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap(usrFileName)
combiner.SourceBitmap = photo1

' m_num is the number of the images that need to be overlayed. values are read from database
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To (m_num -1)
'Combine with the image.
combiner.SourceRectangle = New System.Drawing.RectangleF(0, 0, photo1.Width, photo1.Height)
combiner.DestinationRectangle = New System.Drawing.RectangleF(hold_x.Item(i), hold_y.Item(i), hold_wd.Item(i), hold_ht.Item(i))
combiner.ApplyMaskTransform(background, mask)
Next
tmpFile = fileUploadPath & "\Temp\" & GetTempFileName() & "_collage.jpg"
background.Save(tmpFile)


Thanks in advance,
Arun

Thanks: 8 times
Hi,

You may try this method. It was given as sample by Aurigma Engineer last time. :)

Code:
    Private Function ManualCombine(ByVal image As Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap, ByVal mask As Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap) As Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap
        If image.Width <> mask.Width Or image.Height <> mask.Height Then
            Throw New ArgumentException("image")
        End If
        If image.PixelFormat <> PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb Then
            'Throw New ArgumentException("image")
            image.ColorManagement.Convert(PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb)
        End If
        If mask.PixelFormat <> PixelFormat.Format8bppGrayScale Then
            Throw New ArgumentException("mask")
        End If


        Dim result As New Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap(mask.Width, mask.Height, PixelFormat.Format32bppArgb)
        result.VerticalResolution = image.VerticalResolution
        result.HorizontalResolution = image.HorizontalResolution

        Dim imageData As Aurigma.GraphicsMill.BitmapData = image.LockBits()
        Dim maskData As Aurigma.GraphicsMill.BitmapData = mask.LockBits()
        Dim resultData As Aurigma.GraphicsMill.BitmapData = result.LockBits()

        Dim srcScan(imageData.Stride) As Byte
        Dim dstScan(resultData.Stride) As Byte
        Dim maskScan(maskData.Stride) As Byte

        Try
            For i As Integer = 0 To resultData.Height - 1
                Marshal.Copy(New IntPtr(imageData.Scan0.ToInt32() + i * imageData.Stride), srcScan, 0, imageData.Stride)
                Marshal.Copy(New IntPtr(resultData.Scan0.ToInt32() + i * resultData.Stride), dstScan, 0, resultData.Stride)
                Marshal.Copy(New IntPtr(maskData.Scan0.ToInt32() + i * maskData.Stride), maskScan, 0, maskData.Stride)

                Dim srcChannelIndex As Integer = 0
                Dim dstChannelIndex As Integer = 0
                For j As Integer = 0 To resultData.Width - 1
                    dstScan(dstChannelIndex) = srcScan(srcChannelIndex)
                    dstChannelIndex += 1
                    srcChannelIndex += 1
                    dstScan(dstChannelIndex) = srcScan(srcChannelIndex)
                    dstChannelIndex += 1
                    srcChannelIndex += 1
                    dstScan(dstChannelIndex) = srcScan(srcChannelIndex)
                    dstChannelIndex += 1
                    srcChannelIndex += 1
                    dstScan(dstChannelIndex) = maskScan(j)
                    dstChannelIndex += 1
                Next

                Marshal.Copy(dstScan, 0, New IntPtr(resultData.Scan0.ToInt32() + i * resultData.Stride), resultData.Stride)

            Next
        Finally
            result.UnlockBits(resultData)
            image.UnlockBits(imageData)
            mask.UnlockBits(maskData)
        End Try

        Return result
    End Function
