How did you get your bitmap?

[Glasso]

Thank you for helping me figure this out, it is kind

The bitmap was generated from Lexikos & TIC's functions, such as

[Laszlo]

Unfortunately, I am not an expert in that. You have to ask those guys. The returned bitmap can be a C++ class or a structure, where the size can be calculated from the fields in the beginning. You have to know the size, when you want to convert the bitmap to hex.

[Glasso]

Thank you for the insight there and idea. I will ask them to visit here, and maybe this can be expanded

How to retrieve bitmap data from a GDI+ bitmap: Advanced Graphic/Image question.

[Glasso]

Thank you Lexikos.

Might you know a faster way to turn a bitmap into some kind of usable text code? I thought this hex conversion under this thread would be fabulous, ... though the Lexikos function does sort of what I am asking, ... it takes a darn long time to fully scan in even a small image before it is turned into text.

[Lexikos]

Are you using ImageData_GetPixel? Pass the ImageData variable to Bin2Hex instead.

[Glasso]

Pretty cool Lexikos! I think I am almost there!, ... But how would I get the correct size of ImageData right for this function

[Lexikos]

[Glasso]

Sweet

Lexikos - THANK YOU

i have just one more question. i get the flow of this now in terms of hex conversion, but question boggles my mind

1) what is IMAGEDATA, .. this is not a bitmap, or is it? not the same as PBITMAP or HBITMAP?

2) i am used to working with P & H bitmaps. may i ask, so i can see the end to end conversion, ... if IMAGEDATA is neither a pbitmap or hbitmap, what would be the step to take IMAGEDATA and convert it to either one of those?

[Lexikos]

1) ImageData is a raw bitmap - i.e. an array of 32-bit pixel data.
2) I suggest you post in a GDI+ related thread, or start a new one.
GDI+ has very little to do with this thread.

[Glasso]

Thank you so much Lexikos. Could you please do me a favor a look at this separated thread? I've advanced it just a bit

Kind regards, glasso

Laszlo,
I am having some problems with the MCODE function, ... basically I am having trouble clearing it out. If I pass a variable that happens to be smaller than the last one, ... it actually leaves a ghost of the tail of the last variable passed in. I suppose in the loop when it allocates the memory, it doesn't do anything to re-initialize itself, assuming something else was passed in before

Do you know how to fix this somehow
