Ok that was the wrong place to post that question 
I reposted here[^]
And I thought there was alot of forums at the other one...
"Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot?
Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. It's a dumb question... skip it."

Ok, thanks Mark. I will watch both those links and see what kind of answers come in. Maybe it is a known bug with a hotfix already available.

Here[^] is an MSDN forum entry that talks about a blue "halo" around images and an admitted bug in the GetHBITMAP function. It is dated from May 2005 so one would figure there would be a fix by now. I will keep looking.

Thanks for the link!
I would guess it's a pretty simple bug to fix - maybe it doesn't get reported.
It may not be often that we (programmers) need a HBITMAP from a Gdiplus::Bitmap.
Still, I never know - I may want to do it tomorrow and it's not going to work 
One reply so far on the MS GDI board but it wasn't useful.
Thanks for the update!

Here[^] is some code someone did to fix the problem. Search for
"FixedGdipCreateHBITMAPFromBitmap" on the page to find it 
Not necessarily useful - just FYI.

 Thank you! I am SO glad someone else argued with him - I know that's where it was
going in my thread on MSDN (with the same guy!).
Anyway, did you draw any conclusion from all that?

Yeah, that that guy is extremely stubborn
If he is right, and the result we are seeing is the expected result, then the designers of GetHBITMAP should be shot as it makes absolute no sense.
I think I will just use my workaround as all I have been able to find on the subject is some people complaining about the bug, but no one being able to point to a hotfix or easy to implement solution (hooking the Gdiplus dll is not an easy solution).
I will continue to watch these threads but I will not hold my breath waitng for a solution.

BTW, I am using version 5.1.3102.2180 of the gdiplus.dll file.
I do not know if that makes a difference.

My first guess would be the SetFromCOLORREF method. Try passing in a ARGB defined color, and also try using one of the other c'tors. I have a feeling that internally the color is screwed up before your call to get the bitmap.
Can you see the internal members of the color object in the debugger and verify that it is set up correctly?
|
|
|
|

In my original post I checked the Color object at the point labeled "b:" just before the call to GetHBITMAP() and as far as I can tell by looking in the debugger the values are set properly. It does not change after the call to GetHBITMAP() yet the colour in the final bitmap is always wrong.

strange. Out of curiosty, try grabbing a few pixels from the bitmap, just on the offchance it's being corrupted while being sent to your ImageViewer ( highly unlikely I know ). Other from that I can't think of anything.

Is it possbile to select a DIB in a window DC and use
normal drawing functions like Rectangle, Ellipse ..
How?

Hey Jeremy LTNS

Howdy howdy.
I think I found my new home on the Internet. If I end up getting into flame wars over something like OpenGL, then I must say there's no hope for me.

Well it's good to see you back here. Didn't know you personally but I always enjoyed,
respected, and learned something from your posts in the past.
Cheers!
Mark
mental note - start opengl flame war in the future, just for fun

The drawing operations usually can't keep up with the display when this happens. So, if you have the flickering issues you either need to A: slow down the animation or B: use double buffering by drawing to an off/memory buffer and the blitting that to the display so the delay isn't noticeable.

Oh wow, that's a trip back. If you're seriously doing DOS graphics programming, you might want to spend some time with the old Abrash columns[^]...

Define Crazy: I spent days and almost $100 trying to track down that black book w/ the CD in good condition. So, I get it and it sits collecting dust alongside my other books. But, it does look neato sitting there.

Heh.
I think i first read it in electronic form; it came on CD with The Zen of Graphics. Gosh, it's been probably ten years or more since i bought that book... loved it though; the guy can really write.
