\section{\class{wxImage}}\label{wximage}
This class encapsulates a platform-independent image. An image can be created
via image format handlers. Functions are available to set and get image bits, so
it can be used for basic image manipulation.

This function is similar to \helpref{SetData}{wximagesetdata} and has similar
restrictions. The pointer passed to it may however be {\tt NULL} in which case

unused colour in the image, setting this colour as the mask colour and then

Sets the pixel at the given coordinate. This routine performs bounds-checks
for the coordinate so it can be considered a safe way to manipulate the
data, but in some cases this might be too slow so that the data will have to
