Hi !<br />
<br />
I have one 256 color bitmap on a picture box. I want to print some text on it and then save it in the same 256 color format. <br />
I have to keep these palette. Using savepicture always change the bitmap palette to 24bit (monitor setup).<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />

Hi !<br />
I'm afraid you can't do that if you insist to use savepicture method. Ths only solution I can think off is used direct-x with vb and extract the bitmap from that 256 color file and then print some text on it. Then just convert them to 256 format again.<br />
BTW, the convertion of 24bit to 256 were very complex.<br />

<div>
instead of using this code:<br />
<br />
savepicture picture1.picture<br />
<br />
use this <br />
<br />
savepicture picture1.image<br />
<br />
you will get different results<br />

</div>


instead of using this code:

savepicture picture1.picture

use this

savepicture picture1.image

you will get different results


<div>
I'm using &nbsp;'savepicture picture1.image' to save changed bitmaps.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately VB can't keep the palette.<br />
<br />

</div>


I'm using  'savepicture picture1.image' to save changed bitmaps.

Unfortunately VB can't keep the palette.

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
