1. Win32lib bitmaps
Hi all,
I just want to know what kind of bitmaps I can read using win32lib.
Example: 256 colors, 16 bit, 24 bit
That's all.
Thanks

I believe that Win32Lib can read up to 32-bit bitmaps
using 'loadBitmapFromFile'. 'createDIB' can be passed a Euphoria bitmap of
up to 24-bit color. Don't read a high color bitmap using
Euphoria's 'read_bitmap' since it can only read bitmaps of 256 colors or
less.
A while back I added the 24-bit color support for 'createDIB' so that I
could make a Pixmap from an XPM (text based format) with more than 256
colors. This is now used in the 'xpmToPixmap' routine.
Hope I didn't confuse you too much...
