#MhPicture and 24bit Bmps
3 messages in this thread
Hi Mark, My capture board only outputs 24bit BMPS. I tried loading one into
MhPicture (256 color version) and I got a "Unrecoveralbe Error". Does
MhPicture handle 24bit to 8bit conversion?. BTW, is there a way to tell
MhPicture not to fit bmps into a picture control? Thanks.

Victor,
Would it be possible for you to send us the bmp on a disk so we can try to
duplicate the problem? Please be sure to include a READ.ME file that tells
us what to do!
Our picture control expects to see a standard 256-color BMP file and
doesn't do any "translating". Can you paste the same bmp into PaintBrush?

I'm not sure I understand your question. I can *guess* however! We recently
added a property to the control that tells it to "clip" the bitmap instead
of shrinking/stretching it if the bmp is not the same size as your control
and AutoSize=False.

Hi Mark,
I took the liberty to send you the file on BUG BBS. It should be there by
the time you read this message. The file is called VICTOR.ZIP under section
VBTOOLS2. I've included a read.me file per your instruction.
Yes, I was able to load the same bitmap into Paintbrush.
Thanks for the info on the new picture property. It is exactly what I
wanted.
Victor.
