DateTimeStamp

TgaImage.DateTimeStamp property

Gets or sets Date/Time Stamp. This field defines the value for the date and time that the image was saved. Even though operating systems typically time- and date-stamp files, this feature is provided because the operating system may change the time and date stamp if the file is copied. By using this area, you are guaranteed an unmodified region for date and time recording.

public DateTime? DateTimeStamp { get; set; }

Examples

Updating public properties of the loaded TGA image.

[C#]

using (TgaImage image = (TgaImage)Image.Load("test.tga"))
{
    image.DateTimeStamp = testTime;
    image.AuthorName = "John Smith";
    image.AuthorComments = "Comment";
    image.ImageId = "ImageId";
    image.JobNameOrId = "Important Job";
    image.JobTime = TimeSpan.FromDays(10);
    image.TransparentColor = Color.FromArgb(123);
    image.SoftwareId = "SoftwareId";
    image.SoftwareVersion = "abc1";
    image.SoftwareVersionLetter = 'a';
    image.SoftwareVersionNumber = 2;
    image.XOrigin = 1000;
    image.YOrigin = 1000;

    image.Save("test.tga")
}

Getting values of the public properties of the loaded TGA image.

    keyColor = image.TransparentColor;
    softwareId = image.SoftwareId;
    softwareVersion = image.SoftwareVersion;
    softwareVersionLetter = image.SoftwareVersionLetter;
    softwareVersionNumber = image.SoftwareVersionNumber;
    xOrigin = image.XOrigin;

    gammaValueDenominator = image.GammaValueDenominator;
    gammaValueNumerator = image.GammaValueNumerator;
    hasAlphaChannel = image.HasAlpha;
    hasColorMap = image.HasColorMap;
    height = image.Height;
    isGrayScale = image.IsGrayScale;
    pixelAspectRatioDenominator = image.PixelAspectRatioDenominator;
    pixelAspectRatioNumerator = image.PixelAspectRatioNumerator;
    size = image.Size;
    width = image.Width;
