WIA_IPC_THUMBNAIL

The WIA_IPC_THUMBNAIL property contains the 24-bits-per-pixel thumbnail data bits. The WIA minidriver creates and maintains this property.

Property Type: VT_UI1 | VT_VECTOR

Valid Values: WIA_PROP_NONE

Access Rights: Read-only

Remarks

The thumbnail data that the WIA_IPC_THUMBNAIL property contains must be in uncompressed bitmap data and aligned on 32-bit boundaries. An application reads the values of the WIA_IPC_THUMBNAIL_WIDTH and WIA_IPC_THUMBNAIL_HEIGHT properties and creates a BITMAPINFOHEADER structure (which is described in the Microsoft Windows SDK documentation). The application should be able to read the WIA_IPC_THUMBNAIL property (which represents the actual thumbnail image data) and use this property to write the data directly into the newly created bitmap to create the thumbnail image.

WIA_IPC_THUMBNAIL is used by WIA minidrivers and applications that are running on Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Me, and later versions of the operating system.

Requirements

Version: Obsolete in Windows Vista and later operating systems.
