Copy pixel data from System.Drawing. Bitmap

Hi.

I use System.Drawing. Bitmap to copy bitmap pixel data.
I use LockBits to retrieve a BitmapData which in turn provides me with the
Scan0 property which i then use to loop the pixel data using a byte *.
I am aware of that internally GDI+ stores RGB as BGR,
therefore i have to manually swap the R and B components of each
pixel.
Since GDI+ internally stores the components in BGR order, there is'nt a
way to copy the entire pixel data directly without looping the pixels, is
it?
Thank you!

Dennis,

No, it would appear that there isn't. If it was in RGB order, then you
could just copy the block of memory, but that doesn't seem feasable.

You could also try copying the block of memory, and then swapping the
bytes at every 1st and 3rd index (the R and B components). It might be
faster, and require less loop iterations.

Hope this helps.

Is someone can give me example? I want to create Bitmap with pixel data saved in a binary file, the data file only have red data block and green data block. I have implemented it with VC6.0, now I want to rewrote it with C#. My question is 1. using of Bitmap (Int32, Int32, Int32, PixelFormat, IntPtr) 2. how to implement memory copy efficiently in C#

hello, - I have a Bitmap Object named: bmp1 - I already have the numerical values of:red,blue and green colors + I have the X and Y cordinates. How do I set the pixel value via safe code on the bmp1 object? (the pixel location based on the X & Y values and it's color based on the red,blue and green values the I already have)

I have a bitmap (32 pixels high, 8192 pixels wide) that contains 255 images, each 32 pixels wide, that I would like to chop up into individual 32x32 bitmap files. Rather than spending hours in Paint or Photoshop I would like to do this programmatically. My code below attempts to load in the original bitmap, crop it at the desired location, and save it to the correct file. I don't think I'm doing this right, I tried messing with different...

On an academic note, I want to copy a Graphic to an Image (Bitmap). I have the Graphic object but not the origin image from which it originates; this is because I'm overriding the PrintDocument class OnPagePrint method which only provides me an e.Graphic (see code sample below). The FCL doesn't seem to natively support Graphic =(Image)Bitmap. I have tried BitBlt workaround in the source code to copy printer e.Graphic into the bmp...

When I zoom in on an image, GDI+ automatically smoothens the edges between the pixels. I am looking for a way to see the individual pixels as squares in the enlarged image, like in MSPaint. I searched in vain in the enumerations System.Drawing.Drawing2D.SmoothingMode and System.Drawing.Drawing2D.InterpolationMode to find the constant that does just that. How?

Hi, I made a "Paint" program, but I couldn't find a method to paint 1 pixel using graphic state ("Graphics g = Graphics.FromHwnd(this.Handle);") How can I paint 1 pixel? I guess I can make a Bitmap, change one pixel color and show it, but I'm sure there is another way of doing it. Please help, Ofir.
