Does ImageProcessor ImageFactory Load System.Drawing.Image modify by reference argument

Question

ImageProcessor ImageFactory supports Load method with argument System.Drawing.Image. But Save method does not support similar argument. Is there a way with ImageProcessor ImageFactory to Load a System.Drawing.Image, manipulate the image, e.g., Brightness, then Save the modified image to System.Drawing.Image?

Answer 1

You can't use a reference to the original image since that is tightly bound to the input stream.

You can either. 1. Save to the output stream and use Image.FromStream to create a new image. 2. Use a binary formatter to perform a deep clone of the ImageFactory.Image property https://stackoverflow.com/a/43042865/427899
