Hi,

Is some one aware about Magick++ API for creating 8 bitmap (1 byte per pixel).
I am using Imagemagick version 7

Thanks in advance

Code: Select all

Magick::Image image(Magick::Geometry(512, 512), Magick::ColorRGB(1, 1, 1));
image.depth(8);
image.magick("BMP");

Hi Rodlie,
Thanks for your reply. I just used the api as you suggested.
Is the per pixel will take 4 bits here? Is the one bit for alpha ?
