How to load the image without reducing the resolution?
1 min read
To maintain the image resolution, convert the image as byte[] format and use Byte[] datatype for image column to the grid. By default, when the image loaded in the grid cell is resized using ImageSize property, the resolution of the image gets affected.
C#
private DataTable CreateTable()
{
dt.Columns.Add("Name");
dt.Columns.Add("Id");
dt.Columns.Add("Date");
dt.Columns.Add("Country");
dt.Columns.Add("Ship City");
dt.Columns.Add("Ship Country");
dt.Columns.Add("Freight");
dt.Columns.Add("Postal code");
dt.Columns.Add("ImageColumn", typeof(byte[]));
for (int l = 0; l <= gridControl1.RowCount; l++)
{
DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();
dr[0] = name1[r.Next(0, 5)];
dr[1] = "E" + r.Next(30);
dr[2] = new DateTime(2012, 5, 23);
dr[3] = country[r.Next(0, 5)];
dr[4] = city[r.Next(0, 5)];
dr[5] = scountry[r.Next(0, 5)];
dr[6] = r.Next(1000, 2000);
dr[7] = r.Next(10 + (r.Next(600000, 600100)));
//Adding image as Byte[] array.
Byte[] imageArray = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(FindFile(@"flower" + l % 3 + ".jpg"));
dr[8] = imageArray;
dt.Rows.Add(dr);
}
return dt;
}
