ClipServer Interface Summary

IClipServer is the interface that allows you to access image clips from the ScanTools Plus master tif file. ScanTools Plus Link Runtime or ScanTools Plus has done the clipping based on the ScanTools Plus application definition. The CLIPS schema rowset describes each clip.

This is a creatable class, more than one is allowed.

You can access the clips sequentially in file storage order or perform random access if you know their position.

For sequential access, use this pseudo code:

 Open

  While MoveNext = true

   Iterate Clips collection or call GetClip

  End loop

 Close

For random access use this pseudo code.

 Open

  Set the Position property

  GetClip

 Close

The ScanTools Plus Link Data Editor sample uses the random access method.

The alphabetic list of properties and methods is provided below. For complete details, see the topic specific to each property.
