Image List Creation Flags

  • Article

The set of bit flags that specifies the type of image list to create. This parameter can be a combination of the following values, but it can include only one of the ILC_COLOR values. Used by ImageList_Create and IImageList2::Initialize.

Constant/value Description
ILC_MASK
0x00000001
 Use a mask. The image list contains two bitmaps, one of which is a monochrome bitmap used as a mask. If this value is not included, the image list contains only one bitmap.
ILC_COLOR
0x00000000
 Use the default behavior if none of the other ILC_COLORx flags is specified. Typically, the default is ILC_COLOR4, but for older display drivers, the default is ILC_COLORDDB.
ILC_COLORDDB
0x000000FE
 Use a device-dependent bitmap.
ILC_COLOR4
0x00000004
 Use a 4-bit (16-color) device-independent bitmap (DIB) section as the bitmap for the image list.
ILC_COLOR8
0x00000008
 Use an 8-bit DIB section. The colors used for the color table are the same colors as the halftone palette.
ILC_COLOR16
0x00000010
 Use a 16-bit (32/64k-color) DIB section.
ILC_COLOR24
0x00000018
 Use a 24-bit DIB section.
ILC_COLOR32
0x00000020
 Use a 32-bit DIB section.
ILC_PALETTE
0x00000800
 Not implemented.
ILC_MIRROR
0x00002000
 Mirror the icons contained, if the process is mirrored
ILC_PERITEMMIRROR
0x00008000
 Causes the mirroring code to mirror each item when inserting a set of images, versus the whole strip.
ILC_ORIGINALSIZE
0x00010000
 Windows Vista and later. Imagelist should accept smaller than set images and apply original size based on image added.
ILC_HIGHQUALITYSCALE
0x00020000
 Windows Vista and later. Reserved.
