The file path of the image resource to render as an annotation. Use the empty string to allow the viewer to prompt users to select a file.

You can subsequently use the GetLastPath method to retrieve the path of the selected file.

Set this parameter to true, if you want to stroke the embedded image using the defined border color, otherwise set it to false.
A color object that defines the required border color of the newly added embedded image annotation. It is the color of the border drawn around the embedded image if you set the Stroke parameter to true.
The border width of the newly added embedded image annotation, in inches. It is the width of the colored border drawn around the embedded image if you set the Stroke parameter to true.
The opacity value of the newly added embedded image annotation, from 0 (full transparency) to 1 (full opacity).

AddEmbeddedImageAnnotInteractive(String,Boolean,Color,Single,Single) Method

In This Topic
Allows users to interactively add a new embedded image annotation using the mouse on the current page of the document displayed in the GdViewer control. The annotation object is added following all the parameters you have specified and respecting the dimensions users will define using the mouse as well.

The type of the newly added annotation object is GdPictureAnnotationType.AnnotationTypeEmbeddedImage. You can change the annotation properties directly using the GdPicture14.Annotations.AnnotationEmbeddedImage class before or after the successful creation of the annotation object. Please refer to both the BeforeAnnotationAddedByUser and the AnnotationAddedByUser events, respectively to both the PreviewBeforeAnnotationAddedByUser and the PreviewAnnotationAddedByUser events, for how to achieve this.

Be aware that the editing mode for annotations must be enabled using the SetAnnotationEditorMode method, otherwise this method will fail.

Parameters

ImagePath
The file path of the image resource to render as an annotation. Use the empty string to allow the viewer to prompt users to select a file.

You can subsequently use the GetLastPath method to retrieve the path of the selected file.

Stroke
Set this parameter to true, if you want to stroke the embedded image using the defined border color, otherwise set it to false.
BorderColor
A color object that defines the required border color of the newly added embedded image annotation. It is the color of the border drawn around the embedded image if you set the Stroke parameter to true.
BorderWidth
The border width of the newly added embedded image annotation, in inches. It is the width of the colored border drawn around the embedded image if you set the Stroke parameter to true.
Opacity
The opacity value of the newly added embedded image annotation, from 0 (full transparency) to 1 (full opacity).
Remarks
The GetStat method can be subsequently used to determine if this method has been successful. If the editing mode for annotations is disabled, the method will fail.

Just to remind you, that this method changes the last path used by the current GdViewer control to the file path of the specified image.
