Problem when saving bmp files
Hi,
I have a QImage generated from a char* data array. When trying to save it to the bmp the file is correctly created but is not readeable by the window wiewer (paint open it but the data is crappy).
I guess that my QImage is not correctly initialised, but I don't find Where :(
Here is a part of my code:
Code:
// allocate the memory for the input picture
unsigned char* Orig_Image = NULL;
Orig_Image = new unsigned char[Nb_Lines * Nb_Pixels];
memset(Orig_Image, 0, Nb_Lines * Nb_Pixels);
// create a B/W color table for the image
QVector<QRgb> colorTable;
for (int i = 0; i < 256; i++)
colorTable.
push_back(QColor(i, i, i
).
rgb());
.... edit the data array here
Image
= QImage(Orig_Image,Nb_Pixels,Nb_Lines,Nb_Pixels,
QImage::Format_Indexed8);
Image.setColorTable(colorTable);
if(!Image.
isNull()) Image.
save(QFileDialog::getSaveFileName(this,
"Load a picture or file",
QString(),
"BMP"));
delete(Orig_Image);
Any clues are appreciated! :)

from the qt docs http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/qimage.html
"Warning: Painting on a QImage with the format QImage::Format_Indexed8 is not supported."
Re: Problem when saving bmp files
hum ok... so there is no possibilities to save a 8bits bmp picture with Qt?
Re: Problem when saving bmp files
It is strange because on the doc it is also written:
BMP Windows Bitmap Read/write
if there is no solution on Qt is it possible whit another library?
