Pixmap "depth"

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

Hello all!

Graphics is not my fort=E9, but I'm having to wrap some graphics functions=
=20
for a library that I'm working on.  One of these functions returns the=20
"depth" of a pixmap.

Could someone please define the meaning of a pixmap's depth?  During=20
testing, I tried two different images ... one, a pixmap icon, and the=20
other, a JPEG image from my digital camera.  Both reported a "depth" of=20
16.  Because I don't know what "depth" means, I can't tell whether that=20
is the right answer, or whether I screwed something up.

Thanks,

Travis Beaty.
