While all images have RGB data, not all images have an alpha channel. Before
using wxImage::GetAlpha you should check if this image contains an alpha
- channel with wxImage::HasAlpha. Note that currently only the PNG format has
- full alpha channel support so only the images loaded from PNG files can have
- alpha and, if you initialize the image alpha channel yourself using
- wxImage::SetAlpha, you should save it in PNG format to avoid losing it.
+ channel with wxImage::HasAlpha. Currently the BMP, PNG, and TIFF format
+ handlers have full alpha channel support for loading so if you want to use
+ alpha you have to use one of these formats. If you initialize the image
+ alpha channel yourself using wxImage::SetAlpha, you should save it in
+ either PNG or TGA format to avoid losing it as these are the only handlers
+ that currently support saving with alpha.
@section image_handlers Available image handlers
To use other image formats, install the appropriate handler with
wxImage::AddHandler or call ::wxInitAllImageHandlers().
- - wxBMPHandler: For loading and saving, always installed.
- - wxPNGHandler: For loading (including alpha support) and saving.
+ - wxBMPHandler: For loading (including alpha support) and saving, always installed.
+ - wxPNGHandler: For loading and saving. Includes alpha support.
- wxJPEGHandler: For loading and saving.
- - wxGIFHandler: Only for loading, due to legal issues.
+ - wxGIFHandler: For loading and saving (see below).
- wxPCXHandler: For loading and saving (see below).
- wxPNMHandler: For loading and saving (see below).
- - wxTIFFHandler: For loading and saving.
- - wxTGAHandler: For loading only.
+ - wxTIFFHandler: For loading (including alpha support) and saving.
+ - wxTGAHandler: For loading and saving. Includes alpha support.
- wxIFFHandler: For loading only.
- wxXPMHandler: For loading and saving.
- wxICOHandler: For loading and saving.
Loading PNMs only works for ASCII or raw RGB images.
When saving in PNM format, wxPNMHandler will always save as raw RGB.
+ Saving GIFs requires images of maximum 8 bpp (see wxQuantize), and the alpha channel converted to a mask (see wxImage::ConvertAlphaToMask).
+ Saving an animated GIF requires images of the same size (see wxGIFHandler::SaveAnimation)
