Setting Canvas Size and Mode in Aspose.CAD for .NET

Introduction

Are you ready to unlock the full potential of Aspose.CAD for .NET and revolutionize your CAD rendering experience? In this step-by-step tutorial, we’ll delve into the intricacies of setting canvas size and mode using the powerful Aspose.CAD library. Whether you’re a seasoned developer or just starting, this guide will walk you through the process, ensuring you harness the capabilities of Aspose.CAD effectively.

Prerequisites

Before we dive into the tutorial, make sure you have the following prerequisites in place:

• Aspose.CAD Library: Download and install the Aspose.CAD library from the Aspose.CAD website.

• Development Environment: Ensure you have a .NET development environment set up on your machine.

• Sample CAD File: For this tutorial, we’ll use a sample DXF file. You can find one in the Aspose.CAD documentation.

Import Namespaces

To get started, import the necessary namespaces at the beginning of your .NET application:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Aspose.CAD;

Step 1: Load CAD File

Begin by loading the CAD file using the following code:

string MyDir = "Your Document Directory";
string sourceFilePath = MyDir + "conic_pyramid.dxf";

using (Image image = Image.Load(sourceFilePath))
{
    // Your code for further steps will go here
}

Step 2: Create CadRasterizationOptions

Create an instance of CadRasterizationOptions and set its properties:

CadRasterizationOptions rasterizationOptions = new CadRasterizationOptions();
rasterizationOptions.PageWidth = 1600;
rasterizationOptions.PageHeight = 1600;
rasterizationOptions.AutomaticLayoutsScaling = true;
rasterizationOptions.NoScaling = false;

Step 3: Create PdfOptions

Create an instance of PdfOptions and set its VectorRasterizationOptions property:

PdfOptions pdfOptions = new PdfOptions();
pdfOptions.VectorRasterizationOptions = rasterizationOptions;

Step 4: Export to PDF

Export the CAD file to PDF using the configured options:

image.Save(MyDir + "result_out.pdf", pdfOptions);

Step 5: Create TiffOptions

Create an instance of TiffOptions and set its VectorRasterizationOptions property:

TiffOptions tiffOptions = new TiffOptions(TiffExpectedFormat.Default);
tiffOptions.VectorRasterizationOptions = rasterizationOptions;

Step 6: Export to TIFF

Export the CAD file to TIFF using the configured options:

image.Save(MyDir + "result_out.tiff", tiffOptions);

Conclusion

Congratulations! You’ve successfully set the canvas size and mode in Aspose.CAD for .NET. This powerful feature opens up a world of possibilities for CAD rendering. Experiment with different options and discover the full potential of Aspose.CAD in your .NET applications.
