Feature Request: Add Blur Effect for Hiding Sensitive Data in Images

[justwellsolets]

Description:

I am working on a project where I need to hide sensitive information (such as email, phone numbers, addresses, and banking details) in an image. Currently, I can use a rectangle with a solid fill color to cover the sensitive data, but this does not look visually appealing.

Requested Feature:

• Add support for applying a blur effect to specific regions of an image.
• Allow developers/users to select a portion of the image and apply a blur instead of using solid fill colors.
• Provide customization options such as blur intensity with shape (rectangular, circular, etc.).

Use Case:

This feature would be useful in scenarios where users need to redact sensitive data while maintaining the visual integrity of the image. It would be helpful for document processing, data privacy protection, and content moderation.

Proposed Implementation:

• Extend existing image annotation tools to include a blur effect as an option.
• Allow programmatic control over blur settings via API.

References:

• Many image editing tools provide similar functionality for privacy-related use cases.
• I believe this feature would greatly enhance the usability of Syncfusion’s image processing capabilities. Please consider adding it in a future update.

Looking forward to your response.

Thank you!
