    Syntax
    Example

    Here is an example that shows how to measure the diagonal size, in pixels, of image in image viewer:

    
    ''' <summary>
    ''' Returns the diagonal size of image in image viewer in pixels.
    ''' </summary>
    ''' <param name="viewer">An image viewer.</param>
    ''' <returns>The diagonal size of image in image viewer in pixels.</returns>
    ''' <remarks>
    ''' Creates a measurement annotation to measure the diagonal.
    ''' </remarks>
