### Description

The FrameBaseCollection class is the base class of the [ImageCollection](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/txtextcontrol/imagecollection/llms-full.txt) and [TextFrameCollection](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/txtextcontrol/textframecollection/llms-full.txt) classes. It contains their base functionality. The FrameBaseCollection class implements the IEnumerable and the ICollection interfaces.

### Syntax

```csharp
public abstract class FrameBaseCollection : ICollection, IEnumerable
```

```vbnet
Public MustInherit Class FrameBaseCollection
    Implements ICollection, IEnumerable
```

### Examples

The following example includes the count value from a Frame Base Collection object in application diagnostics. The created object is then available to the surrounding document workflow.

```csharp
Console.WriteLine($"Count: {frameBaseCollection.Count}");
Console.WriteLine("Frame Base Collection is ready for use.");
```

```vbnet
Console.WriteLine($"Count: {frameBaseCollection.Count}")
Console.WriteLine("Frame Base Collection is ready for use.")
```
