Hello,
If by "PdfImageBox" you mean the example project from our blog post (https://www.cyotek.com/blog/extending-the-imagebox-component-to-display-the-contents-of-a-pdf-file-using-csharp), then this is just a normal ImageBox control which exposes a GetSelectedImage method to return the image selection.

yes i want to add selection in pdfimagebox
Hello,
Not sure what to suggest - I grabbed the old source code from that demo, upgraded it to use the ImageBox package and was able to draw selection regions perfectly well.
Does your code have anything that clears the SelectionRegion property?
image grab is now working, but the draw select or the rectangle highlight are not showing , do you have skype ? iwant to donate if my projects done
I can't reproduce it not drawing the selection region, are you able to post your code?
Hello,
The PDF ImageBox sample from the Cyotek website uses a fairly old source code version of the ImageBox control that predates by around 6 months the improvements which added selection regions etc.
Install the CyotekImageBox NuGet package (https://www.nuget.org/packages/CyotekImageBox/), then delete the now unused ImageBox.cs, ImageBoxBorderStyle.cs, ImageBoxGridDisplayMode.cs and ImageBoxGridScale.cs files from the project. The PdfImageBox sample will then use the latest ImageBox control which offers the selection region behaviour.
I had assumed you'd already done this as your screenshot shows the new properties, but the code you posted looks like an unmodified copy of the Cyotek blog sample.

The Imagebox controll still shows the PDF ?
Yes, the PDF sample will continue to load the PDF. The sample uses the GhostScript API to convert PDF pages into images which are then loaded into the ImageBox. Upgrading the sample to used the embedded source version to the more up to date package won't break that.
ok thanks ill try it now
still not draw some highlight area.

Thanks Sir the code is now working ;D
Thanks for letting me know! I confess I'm really confused over what the actual problem was but I'm glad you got it resolved.
I'm sure you've fixed this by now, but in regards to your build warning, the solution is to delete the source code file ImageBoxSelectionMode.cs from your project as it is already a part of the compiled version. Again though I'm confused as how that file is there in the first place as I'm pretty sure it was written after the PDF sample was to begin with.
Still, glad you got it resolved - good luck with your project!
ill remake the PDfImagebox fresh then added the image selection from nugget follow your instruction then boom .add the other feature then done.
