Hey guys, I'm new to wpf. I need help with this. I'm using WPF Browser Application to do this project.

I have an image in the Image control...

C#

<Grid>
       
        <Image  Height="164" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="24,67,0,0" Name="image1" Stretch="Fill" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="255" Source="/CaptureImage;component/Images/Penguins.jpg"  />
        <Button Content="Button" Height="23" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="72,264,0,0" Name="button1" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="75" Click="button1_Click" />
    </Grid>

I have a file on my desktop page. The name of the file is "My WPF Images". My problem is, how do I capture this image and save it to my file? Help needed!! Thank you very much!!

hmmm. ok thx. Another question, using the same image box mentioned above, how do I change it to a jpg format picture? Is there a code to do it and same time save it?

If you are referring to the code found in the above mentioned thread, then converting the image to a jpg is very simple. use save method of the Image class (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9t4syfhh.aspx) to convert the image to desired format.

hey Prasad,

This website (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9t4syfhh.aspx)it says that it uses Window Forms. does it work on WPF Browser Application?? Because from what I know, Windows Forms and WPF are totally different.

Hello Alif,

Image class is in System.Drawing namespace. You should be able to use it without any problems.

Hey Prasad,

I have this code....

public partial class Page1 : Page
{
string imgPath = "C:\\Users\\user_2\\Documents\\Visual Studio 2010\\Projects\\CaptureImage\\CaptureImage";

public Page1()
{
InitializeComponent();

}

private void button1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
image1.Source = ImageFormat.Jpeg;
image1.Source = imgPath;
}

imagPath is the folder where I want to save my pictures. But I'm having trouble with the code in my button. Can you help me to identify the problem please??

Thanks.
