Image List Creation Flags

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.
