The following example shows how to create a PixelFormat and find the value of its properties.
public PixelFormat createPixelFormat() { // Create a PixelFormat object. PixelFormat myPixelFormat = new PixelFormat(); // Make this PixelFormat a Gray32Float pixel format. myPixelFormat = PixelFormats.Gray32Float; // Get the number of bits-per-pixel for this format. Because // the format is "Gray32Float", the float value returned will be 32. int bpp = myPixelFormat.BitsPerPixel; // Get the collection of masks associated with this format. IList<PixelFormatChannelMask> myChannelMaskCollection = myPixelFormat.Masks; // Capture the mask info in a string. String stringOfValues = " "; foreach (PixelFormatChannelMask myMask in myChannelMaskCollection) { IList<byte> myBytesCollection = myMask.Mask; foreach (byte myByte in myBytesCollection) { stringOfValues = stringOfValues + myByte.ToString(); } } // Return the PixelFormat which, for example, could be // used to set the pixel format of a bitmap by using it to set // the DestinationFormat of a FormatConvertedBitmap. return myPixelFormat; }
