>>1. How can I change the default color depth of the saved image (e.g. 64K BMP)
Unfortunately, for BMPs this is not possible in a fast and automatic way. We've added a function to create 1bpp (monochrome) bitmaps using some GDI (not GDI+) commands. >>2. What other parameters are there to experiment with when saving images to >>file ? You can use encoder parameters. Check on UTMAG, there I wrote an article "TIFFs and the new GDI+ classes" there I use encoder parameters to save Multiframe TIFFs and specify image compression. You can also save JPEGs in a seleceted quality, ranging from 0 to 100. Here you'll find a sample: HOW TO: Save Images in different formats with GdiPlus-X http://weblogs.foxite.com/cesarchalom/archive/2007/02/22/3352.aspx Convert Images to Monochrome with GdiPlus X http://weblogs.foxite.com/cesarchalom/archive/2007/05/26/3857.aspx Hope this helps Cesar ---------- InĂcio da mensagem original ----------- De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Para: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Data: Wed, 18 Jul 2007 20:16:38 +0100 Assunto: Another GDIPlusX question > Hi all > > I have a form with an imgcanvas on which I am drawing some shapes and > I'm then saving the image to file using variants of > > .Save("SwatchTest.BMP",_screen.system.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.BMP) > > By default the image saved has a color depth of 16M (for BMP, PNG, JPEG, > TIFF) and 256 (for GIF). > > 1.
