Parameters

ImageID: GdPicture image identifier. The editable multiframe gif image in which the frame will be added.
ImageToAddID: GdPicture image identifier. The image to append within the editable multiframe gif image.

Return Value

A member of the GdPictureStatus enumeration.

Remarks

This method can only be used with an editable multiframe gif image.

To check if an image is an editable multiframe gif image you can use the GifIsEditableMultiFrame() method.

To save modifications brought to the multiframe gif image you need to use the GifSaveMultiFrameToFile() method.

This method requires the Image Documents component to run.

Example

Saving the pages of a dicom document to an animated gif.

using (GdPictureImaging gdpictureImaging = new GdPictureImaging())
{
    int dcmImageID = gdpictureImaging.CreateGdPictureImageFromFile("image.dcm", false);
 
    // Create a gif with the first page.
    int gifImageID = gdpictureImaging.GifCreateMultiFrameFromGdPictureImage(dcmImageID);
 
    // Add the remaining pages as additional frames to the gif.
    int pageCount = gdpictureImaging.DicomGetPageCount(dcmImageID);
    for (int pageNo = 2; pageNo <= pageCount; pageNo++)
    {
        gdpictureImaging.DicomSelectPage(dcmImageID, pageNo);
        gdpictureImaging.GifAppendFrameFromGdPictureImage(gifImageID, dcmImageID);
    }
 
    gdpictureImaging.GifSaveMultiFrameToFile(gifImageID, "image.gif");
 
    gdpictureImaging.ReleaseGdPictureImage(gifImageID);
    gdpictureImaging.ReleaseGdPictureImage(dcmImageID);
}

Example

Saving the pages of a dicom document to an animated gif. using (GdPictureImaging gdpictureImaging = new GdPictureImaging()) { int dcmImageID = gdpictureImaging.CreateGdPictureImageFromFile("image.dcm", false); // Create a gif with the first page. int gifImageID = gdpictureImaging.GifCreateMultiFrameFromGdPictureImage(dcmImageID); // Add the remaining pages as additional frames to the gif. int pageCount = gdpictureImaging.DicomGetPageCount(dcmImageID); for (int pageNo = 2; pageNo <= pageCount; pageNo++) { gdpictureImaging.DicomSelectPage(dcmImageID, pageNo); gdpictureImaging.GifAppendFrameFromGdPictureImage(gifImageID, dcmImageID); } gdpictureImaging.GifSaveMultiFrameToFile(gifImageID, "image.gif"); gdpictureImaging.ReleaseGdPictureImage(gifImageID); gdpictureImaging.ReleaseGdPictureImage(dcmImageID); }
