Whether you are a seasoned developer or a beginner, follow along as we break down each aspect into manageable steps, making your journey with Aspose.PSD seamless.

Prerequisites

Before we embark on this journey, ensure you have the following prerequisites in place:

• Visual Studio: Make sure you have Visual Studio installed on your machine.
• Aspose.PSD for .NET: Download and install the Aspose.PSD for .NET library from the releases.

Import Namespaces

In your Visual Studio project, start by importing the necessary namespaces:

using Aspose.PSD.FileFormats.Psd;
using Aspose.PSD.FileFormats.Psd.Resources;
using System;
using System.IO;

1. Set Up Your Project

Create a new project in Visual Studio and reference the Aspose.PSD library. Set your document and output directories:

string SourceDir = "Your Document Directory";
string OutputDir = "Your Output Directory";

2. Load PSD Image

Load your PSD image using the following code:

string sourceFilePath = Path.Combine(SourceDir, "YourInputFile.psd");
string outputFilePath = Path.Combine(OutputDir, "YourOutputFile.psd");
using (var image = (PsdImage)Image.Load(sourceFilePath))
{
    // Your code here
}

3. BackgroundColorResource Support

In this example, we’ll focus on the support of BackgroundColorResource. This resource allows you to manipulate background color.

//ExStart:SupportOfBackgroundColorResource
string sourceFilePath = Path.Combine(SourceDir, "BackgroundColorResourceInput.psd");
string outputFilePath = Path.Combine(OutputDir, "BackgroundColorResourceOutput.psd");
using (var image = (PsdImage)Image.Load(sourceFilePath))
{
    ResourceBlock[] imageResources = image.ImageResources;
    BackgroundColorResource backgroundColorResource = null;
    
    // Iterate through image resources
    foreach (var imageResource in imageResources)
    {
        if (imageResource is BackgroundColorResource)
        {
            backgroundColorResource = (BackgroundColorResource)imageResource;
            break;
        }
    }
    // Update BackgroundColorResource
    backgroundColorResource.Color = Color.DarkRed;
    // Save the modified image
    image.Save(outputFilePath);
}
//ExEnd:SupportOfBackgroundColorResource
Console.WriteLine("SupportOfBackgroundColorResource executed successfully");
