Black frame for gaps with ImageViewerWpfControl

I have a customer that dont want to see a still picture from previous recording in ImageViewerWpfControl when its PlaybackController is positioned in a gap. Is it possible to show a black frame instead or a custom image.

Unfortunately, no, it is neither possible to show a black frame instead nor a custom image.

The regular camera view item in the Smart Client is based on this control and it is not possible to change the Smart Client behavior on this either.

Ok, thank you for feedback. Is it possible to put this as a feature request? My customer has put this as a semi-urgent issue, but I guess they will have to stick with the current behavior at the moment.

Possible workaround:

You might be able to develop a plugin that will compare the time of the image with the time of the timeline and draw a black overlay that cover the image.

I have never tried this but find it feasible to do this.

Sounds like a possible solution. I might have to try it out unless the customer reconsiders the urgency of the issue.

I see that in MIPSDK 2023 R1 the image is greyed out when there is no recording. Our users like it a lot. Thank you.
