Thread: C# Form image "distortion"

Is the image being resized as it's displayed, or is the display size exactly equal to the actual image dimensions? C# is often bad at resizing by default; luckily it's pretty simple to fix. If it's just a logo, you probably should just make sure its display size is equal to its actual dimensions.


For others' reference, though, or yours if you can't control the source or displayed image size for whatever reason, here's code that resizes an image with much better quality. Here 'img' is your source image, 'resizedImg' is your resized image. Obviously you'd need to change 128,128 to your actual desired output size (the actual pixels of your display):

Code:

            Bitmap resizedImg = new Bitmap(128, 128);
            using (Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(resizedImg))
            {
                g.InterpolationMode = InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic;
                g.DrawImage(img, 0, 0, 128, 128);
            }
