Hi;
I figured out the reason I couldn't successfully mask out the background from
my programatiically created bitmap image was because I added it to a sprite and
then tried to mask the sprite; however, by then the background was no longer
distinguishable from the rest. Someone suggested I mask the bitmap, but
apparently that cannot be done (please correct if wrong). Apparently the way to
do this is to convert the bitmap into vector graphics first; however, googling
only reveals how to do this through the IDE, and even if I wanted to use the
IDE (I don't) that's impossible because the bitmap is generated and regenerated
continually by code. So, is it possible to convert the bitmap image into vector
graphics programatically? How? Tutorials I couldn't find?
TIA,
George
