Hi Zane!
RZR> Finally doing some graphics in 16-bit color, and I'm curious about
RZR> direct color. I'm supposed to pass a direct color RGB565 value to

RZR> First of all, shouldn't that passed value be only 16 bits? What's up

In my app, I have used pure wite transparent color, and I set it 0xFFFF
BmpSetTransparentValue((BitmapType*)m_BmpV3, 0xFFFF);
RZR> And secondly (most importantly), what's the best/simplest way

RZR> code?
I am using encoding to 5-6-6:
//make 5-6-5 bitmap coding (16bit)
//UInt8 R,G,B
R = (R-7) / 8;
G = (G-3) / 4;
B = (B-7) / 8;
//put all colors to one value
UInt16 color = (R<<11) | (G<<5) | B;
