| Palette Object | Description |
|---|---|
| IMAQ ReadFile |
Reads an image file. The file format can be a standard format (BMP, TIFF, JPEG, JPEG2000, PNG, and AIPD) or a nonstandard format known to the user. |
| IMAQ Write File 2 |
Writes the image to a file in the selected format. |
| IMAQ Read Image And Vision Info |
Reads an image file, including any extra vision information saved with the image. This includes overlay information, pattern matching template information, and calibration information, as written by the IMAQ Write Image And Vision Info VI. |
| IMAQ Write String |
Returns a string that contains the entire contents of the image encoded as an image file. The string can be saved to file, or, for example, transferred to a remote computer using FTP. |
| IMAQ GetFileInfo |

| IMAQ Load Image Dialog |
Displays a dialog box with which you can specify a path or paths to images. This dialog box is similar to the LabVIEW File Dialog primitive, but it provides a preview of the image files selected. |
