### <a id="Aspose_Imaging_FileFormats_Gif_GifImage_AdjustGamma_System_Single_System_Single_System_Single_"></a> AdjustGamma\(float, float, float\)
Gamma-correction of an image applies a nonlinear adjustment to the pixel values,
enhancing or reducing brightness based on the specified coefficients for the red,
green, and blue channels. This method helps to fine-tune the color balance and
luminance of the image, improving its overall appearance and visual quality.
```csharp
public override void AdjustGamma(float gammaRed, float gammaGreen, float gammaBlue)
Parameters
gammaRed
float
Gamma for red channel coefficient
gammaGreen
float
Gamma for green channel coefficient
gammaBlue
float
Gamma for blue channel coefficient
Examples
The following example performs gamma-correction of a GIF image applying different coefficients for color components.```csharp [C#]
string dir = "c:\\temp\\";
using (Aspose.Imaging.Image image = Aspose.Imaging.Image.Load(dir + "sample.gif"))
{
Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.GifImage gifImage = (Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.GifImage)image;
// Set individual gamma coefficients for red, green and blue channels.
gifImage.AdjustGamma(1.5f, 2.5f, 3.5f);
gifImage.Save(dir + "sample.AdjustGamma.png", new Aspose.Imaging.ImageOptions.PngOptions());
}
### <a id="Aspose_Imaging_FileFormats_Gif_GifImage_BinarizeBradley_System_Double_"></a> BinarizeBradley\(double\)
Binarization of an image using Bradley's adaptive thresholding algorithm with
integral image thresholding is a method for converting a grayscale image into a
binary image. This algorithm calculates a local threshold for each pixel based on
the average intensity of the surrounding pixels within a specified window. By
adaptively adjusting the threshold based on local pixel intensities, Bradley's
method is effective at handling variations in lighting and contrast across the image.
```csharp
public override void BinarizeBradley(double brightnessDifference)
Parameters
brightnessDifference
double
The brightness difference between pixel and the average of an s x s window of pixels centered around this pixel.
BinarizeFixed(byte)
Binarization of an image with a predefined threshold converts a grayscale or color image into a binary image, where each pixel is classified as either black or white based on whether its intensity value exceeds a specified threshold.
public override void BinarizeFixed(byte threshold)
Parameters
threshold
byte
Threshold value. If corresponding gray value of a pixel is greater than threshold, a value of 255 will be assigned to it, 0 otherwise.
Examples
The following example binarizes a GIF image with the predefined threshold. Binarized images contain only 2 colors - black and white.```csharp [C#]
string dir = "c:\\temp\\";
using (Aspose.Imaging.Image image = Aspose.Imaging.Image.Load(dir + "sample.gif"))
{
Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.GifImage djvuImage = (Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.GifImage)image;
// Binarize the image with a threshold value of 127.
// If a corresponding gray value of a pixel is greater than 127, a value of 255 will be assigned to it, 0 otherwise.
djvuImage.BinarizeFixed(127);
djvuImage.Save(dir + "sample.BinarizeFixed.png", new Aspose.Imaging.ImageOptions.PngOptions());
}
### <a id="Aspose_Imaging_FileFormats_Gif_GifImage_BinarizeOtsu"></a> BinarizeOtsu\(\)
Binarization of an image with Otsu thresholding is a method used to automatically
determine the optimal threshold value for converting a grayscale image into a
binary image. The Otsu thresholding algorithm calculates the threshold that
minimizes the intra-class variance of the pixel intensities in the two resulting
classes (foreground and background). This technique is particularly useful when
the optimal threshold value is unknown and needs to be determined adaptively based
on the image's histogram.
```csharp
public override void BinarizeOtsu()
Examples
The following example binarizes a GIF image with Otsu thresholding. Binarized images contain only 2 colors - black and white.```csharp [C#]
string dir = "c:\\temp\\";
using (Aspose.Imaging.Image image = Aspose.Imaging.Image.Load(dir + "sample.gif"))
{
Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.GifImage gifImage = (Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.GifImage)image;
// Binarize the image with Otsu thresholding.
gifImage.BinarizeOtsu();
gifImage.Save(dir + "sample.BinarizeOtsu.png", new Aspose.Imaging.ImageOptions.PngOptions());
}
### <a id="Aspose_Imaging_FileFormats_Gif_GifImage_ClearBlocks"></a> ClearBlocks\(\)
Clearing all the GIF blocks removes any existing data stored within the image.
This operation effectively resets the image to an empty state, removing any
previously added blocks. Use this method when you need to start fresh with a clean
slate for creating or modifying a GIF image.
```csharp
public void ClearBlocks()
Examples
The following example shows how to remove all blocks from a GIF image.```csharp [C#]
using (Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.Blocks.GifFrameBlock firstBlock = new Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.Blocks.GifFrameBlock(100, 100))
using (Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.GifImage gifImage = new Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.GifImage(firstBlock))
{
if (gifImage.ActiveFrame != null)
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Active frame size: {0}", gifImage.ActiveFrame.Size);
}
else
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Active frame is not set");
}
System.Console.WriteLine("Clear all the blocks");
gifImage.ClearBlocks();
if (gifImage.ActiveFrame != null)
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Active frame size: {0}", gifImage.ActiveFrame.Size);
}
else
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Active frame is not set");
}
}
// The output looks like this:
// Active frame size: { Width = 100, Height = 100}
// Clear all the blocks
// Active frame is not set
### <a id="Aspose_Imaging_FileFormats_Gif_GifImage_Crop_Aspose_Imaging_Rectangle_"></a> Crop\(Rectangle\)

### <a id="Aspose_Imaging_FileFormats_Gif_GifImage_GetOriginalOptions"></a> GetOriginalOptions\(\)
Retrieve the original file settings-based options, crucial for maintaining fidelity
and consistency in image processing and manipulation. This method allows seamless
integration of file-specific parameters into subsequent operations, ensuring
accurate rendition and adherence to the image's inherent characteristics.
This can be helpful to keep bit-depth and other parameters of the original image unchanged.
For example, if we load a black-white PNG image with 1 bit per pixel and then save it using the
Aspose.Imaging.DataStreamSupporter.Save(System.String) method, the output PNG image with 8-bit per pixel will be produced.
To avoid it and save PNG image with 1-bit per pixel, use this method to get corresponding saving options and pass them
to the Aspose.Imaging.Image.Save(System.String,Aspose.Imaging.ImageOptionsBase) method as the second parameter.
```csharp
public override ImageOptionsBase GetOriginalOptions()
Returns
The options based on the original file settings.
Grayscale()
The transformation of an image to its grayscale representation converts the color image into a grayscale version by removing color information while preserving luminance. This process simplifies the image to shades of gray, making it suitable for various applications such as printing, document processing, and grayscale analysis.
public override void Grayscale()
Examples
The following example transforms a colored GIF image to its grayscale representation. Grayscale images are composed exclusively of shades of gray and carry only intensity information.```csharp [C#]
string dir = "c:\\temp\\";
using (Aspose.Imaging.Image image = Aspose.Imaging.Image.Load(dir + "sample.gif"))
{
Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.GifImage gifImage = (Aspose.Imaging.FileFormats.Gif.GifImage)image;
gifImage.Grayscale();
gifImage.Save(dir + "sample.Grayscale.png", new Aspose.Imaging.ImageOptions.PngOptions());
}
