Transform a colored image to a grayscale image using XAML?

问题

Using XAML preferably,

I need to dynamically apply a gray-scale filter on a colored image from bottom to top. That's to say, i would like to be able to change the offset value of the gray-scale filter applied to my image pro grammatically.

For example, I would like to programmatically set 50% of the image in color (from the bottom of the image to its middle), and the other 50% of the image in gray-scale (e.g. from the middle of the image to its top).

I have read a lot of different answers, tried a lot of different things, and thought about a lot of different ways to do this.

I could have two images, one on top of the other. One would be in gray-scale and the other would be in color. I would then programmatically change the size of the gray-scale image so that the image in color below it would partially show and create a sort of half-half view to the user.

However, this solution poses an issue that I do not seem to be able to resolve. When changing the height value of the gray-scale image, the image automatically rescale itself due to the 'Stretch' property which is set to Uniform (and that I do not wish to change to None).

Another way to do this would be to programmatically change the color pixels of the image. I have had some success with this in the past, however, this is too slow for what I am trying to do here (ideally, I would be changing the colors of the image from gray-scale to the original color of the image selected by the user every 50 milliseconds until a certain height is reached).
A third method could be to apply an Opacity Mask on the image and use LinearGradientBrush to change the offset value to the desired position. This is the code I am currently using, it works but simply apply a gray color to the image without changing the original colors of the image to gray-scale (resulting in a sort of a washed out colored image):

XAML:

<Image x:Name="myImage" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Source="C:\Users\Clement\Desktop\test.png" Canvas.Left="159" Canvas.Top="81" Width="500" Height="375" >
            <Image.OpacityMask>
                <LinearGradientBrush EndPoint="0.5,0" MappingMode="RelativeToBoundingBox" StartPoint="0.5,1">
                    <GradientStop x:Name="myImageLinearGradientBrushStop" Color="Black"/>
                    <GradientStop Color="Transparent" Offset="1"/>
                </LinearGradientBrush>
            </Image.OpacityMask>
</Image>

Code-behind (in a timerEventProcessor that repeats itself every 50ms):

myImageLinearGradientBrushStop.Offset = percent * 0.01;

As mentioned previously, I have browsed a lot of different websites, read a lot of similar questions and tried a lot of different answers and still cant satisfactorily solve the problem.

The XAML below uses a Grid with two rows to display two Images on top of each other. The Width and Heigh of the top Image are bound to the size of the bottom Image, which spans both Grid rows. An inner Grid is used to clip the top Image.

<Grid>
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefinition/>
        <RowDefinition/>
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>

    <Image x:Name="image" Grid.RowSpan="2" Source="..."/>

    <Grid>
        <Image Width="{Binding ActualWidth, ElementName=image}"
               Height="{Binding ActualHeight, ElementName=image}"
               HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top">
            <Image.Source>
                <FormatConvertedBitmap Source="{Binding Source, ElementName=image}"
                                       DestinationFormat="Gray8"/>
            </Image.Source>
        </Image>
    </Grid>
</Grid>

Thanks to Clemens' help, I was able to get a solution to my problem!

This is the final XAML code for those whom might be interested:

<Grid Width="500" Height="375">
            <Grid.RowDefinitions>
                <RowDefinition/>
                <RowDefinition/>
            </Grid.RowDefinitions>

            <Image x:Name="image" Grid.RowSpan="2" Source="C:\Users\Clement\Desktop\test_image.png" />

            <Grid Margin="0,0,0,166" Grid.RowSpan="2">
                <Image Width="{Binding ActualWidth, ElementName=image}"
           Height="{Binding ActualHeight, ElementName=image}"
           HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top">
                    <Image.Source>
                        <FormatConvertedBitmap Source="{Binding Source, ElementName=image}"
                                   DestinationFormat="Gray8"/>
                    </Image.Source>
                    <Image.OpacityMask>
                        <ImageBrush ImageSource="C:\Users\Clement\Desktop\test_image.png"/>
                    </Image.OpacityMask>
                </Image>
            </Grid>
        </Grid>

Here I simply added the OpacityMask to the Gray8 image to bring back its transparency.

Happy coding!
