Examples
The following example takes an image that is all one color (0.2, 0.0, 0.4, 1.0) and doubles the red component adds 0.2 to the red, green, and blue components.
The following illustration shows the original image on the left and the transformed image on the right.
The code in the example uses the following steps to perform the recoloring:
Initialize a ColorMatrix object.
Create an ImageAttributes object and pass the ColorMatrix object to the SetColorMatrix method of the ImageAttributes object.
Pass the ImageAttributes object to the DrawImage method of a Graphics object.
Image image = new Bitmap("InputColor.bmp");
ImageAttributes imageAttributes = new ImageAttributes();
int width = image.Width;
int height = image.Height;
float[][] colorMatrixElements = {
new float[] {2, 0, 0, 0, 0}, // red scaling factor of 2
new float[] {0, 1, 0, 0, 0}, // green scaling factor of 1
new float[] {0, 0, 1, 0, 0}, // blue scaling factor of 1
new float[] {0, 0, 0, 1, 0}, // alpha scaling factor of 1
new float[] {.2f, .2f, .2f, 0, 1}}; // three translations of 0.2
ColorMatrix colorMatrix = new ColorMatrix(colorMatrixElements);
imageAttributes.SetColorMatrix(
colorMatrix,
ColorMatrixFlag.Default,
ColorAdjustType.Bitmap);
e.Graphics.DrawImage(image, 10, 10);
e.Graphics.DrawImage(
image,
new Rectangle(120, 10, width, height), // destination rectangle
0, 0, // upper-left corner of source rectangle
width, // width of source rectangle
height, // height of source rectangle
GraphicsUnit.Pixel,
imageAttributes);
Dim image As New Bitmap("InputColor.bmp")
Dim imageAttributes As New ImageAttributes()
Dim width As Integer = image.Width
Dim height As Integer = image.Height
' The following matrix consists of the following transformations:
' red scaling factor of 2
' green scaling factor of 1
' blue scaling factor of 1
' alpha scaling factor of 1
' three translations of 0.2

Remarks
An ImageAttributes object maintains several color-adjustment settings, including color-adjustment matrices, grayscale-adjustment matrices, gamma-correction values, color-map tables, and color-threshold values. During rendering, colors can be corrected, darkened, lightened, and removed. To apply such manipulations, initialize an ImageAttributes object and pass the path of that ImageAttributes object (along with the path of an Image) to the DrawImage method.
Note
In .NET 6 and later versions, the System.Drawing.Common package, which includes this type, is only supported on Windows operating systems. Use of this type in cross-platform apps causes compile-time warnings and run-time exceptions. For more information, see System.Drawing.Common only supported on Windows.
