I'm just trying to learn if I want it.
But why does anyone care what the RLE format is? It's just used
internally.
We don't need to understand the internal format that a field's data
is stored
in, as long as we can get at it by properties.
If it is just internal than I don't think I care.
For the record, I'm pretty certain that isn't Utah RLE, but a very
very very
much simpler format. Take a look at it and see.
How can I if it is internal? Or do you mean Utah? Yeah, if Utah was
simple, I would have just run the experiment.
But I still wish someone
would explain to me why so many people seem to care?
I can guess. Well, there are problems in getting the size and
imageData right at the same time. Also, I'm told it is based, not on
the image, but on the display of the image. I think the size and
angle might affect it. Also, Chipp has found that it is not the same
platform to platform, that it seems be a collection of some rendering
values. My experiments show that PNG gamma affects the imageData
values. It has problems with a newly drawn image. It doesn't
collect size and pixels including alpha all in one place. It doesn't
have room for comments (I think the unused bytes in imageData become
zeros or did at one time). Maybe it would be less of a draw if
imageData worked as expected.
