Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to construct a new BitmapSource by using a member of the BitmapPalettes class in a similar way.

BitmapSource image5 = BitmapSource.Create(
    width,
    height,
    96,
    96,
    PixelFormats.Indexed1,
    BitmapPalettes.WebPalette,
    pixels,
    stride);

FileStream stream5 = new FileStream("palette.tif", FileMode.Create);
TiffBitmapEncoder encoder5 = new TiffBitmapEncoder();
encoder5.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(image5));
encoder5.Save(stream5);

Dim image5 As BitmapSource = System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapSource.Create(width, height, 96, 96, PixelFormats.Indexed1, BitmapPalettes.WebPalette, pixels, stride)

Dim stream5 As New FileStream("palette.tif", FileMode.Create)
Dim encoder5 As New TiffBitmapEncoder()
encoder5.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(image5))
encoder5.Save(stream5)

Remarks

BitmapPalettes properties whose names end with "Transparent" have an additional "color" that is fully transparent. In the case of palettes that already have 256 colors, the last color is replaced by the transparent color.

Only Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) and Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) image formats support palettes.
