PixelFormat

Synopsis

This enumeration lists the various formats that can be used for pixel image data. It is most commonly used when constructing a System.Drawing.Bitmap object and when locking the bitmap data with the System.Drawing.Bitmap.LockBits() method.


public enum PixelFormat {

   DontCare = 0,

   Undefined = 0,
