C# Hotspot Annotation Creating Overview
RasterEdge .NET imaging SDKs offer C#.NET developers a variety of image and document page annotation options that can be added to your C#.NET applications that utilize bitonal, grayscale and color images. This page is designed to offer hotspot image annotation controls to developers and end users that can be used to add color and multimedia
image hotspot markups to black and white images in C# project. And you can find complete C# image annotations in the page of
C# imaging - multi-type annotations on images.

- Custom annotations support allowing developers to define your image annotation types in complete C# class
- Load image files that will be annotated within a short time
- Add hotspot annotation to single or multiple image pages in C# developing environment
- Resize hotspot annotation to the most appropriate width and height with C# image resizing solution
- Full color and shape font style support for customizing hotspot annotation object
- Set edge property easily whenever image hotspot annotation is active or not
- Protect sensitive information with powerful redaction and encryption annotation objects in C# program
- Store hotspot annotation as metadata of document, image file, separate annotation file, database, etc.
- Save hotspot annotation to 30+ image formats, like GIF, JPEG, JBIG, BMP and PNG
How to Run Hotspot Annotation Project in C#.NET
Please follow guide tips below to create an accurate Windows developing project in C# class for image hotspot annotation, and then implement all the relative .NET imaging DLLs to the C# application.
- Firstly, please start your Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, 2008 or 2010;
- Secondly, you need to create a Windows project in Visual C# language;
- And then, implement all the necessary .NET imaging DLLs into your Visual C# application via adding reference operation;
- RasterEdge .Imaging.Basic.dll
- RasterEdge .Imaging.Annotation.dll
- Finally, run following image processing and annotating using statements:
For VB.NET programmers and end users, please go to
annotate image and document page in VB.NET project.

Method on Image Hotspot Annotation in C#.NET
Using following image annotating API solutions in C#, users are able to define your hotspot annotation properties, like locating hotspot annotation object on any area of the image, adjusting filled hotspot shape color and font, activating variable annotating brush tools, and more.
public static HotSpotAnnotation CreateHotSpotAnnotation(float x, float y, float w,
float h, AnnotationPen activeOutline, AnnotationBrush activeFill, AnnotationPen outline, AnnotationBrush fill);
public static HotSpotFreeHandAnnotation CreateHotSpotFreeHandAnnotation(LinePoint[] points, AnnotationPen
activeOutline, AnnotationBrush activeFill, AnnotationPen outline, AnnotationBrush fill);
