AP Save BMP 8 bits


AP Save BMP 8 bits ( image ; file ) -> Function result

Parameter	Type	Description
image	Picture	Name of a 4D picture variable
file	Text	Name of the file in which the BMP will be saved
Function result	Longint	0, if the operation was successful; otherwise a system error code

Description

Compatibility Note: This command is now obsolete; it is kept only for compatibility reasons and will be removed in future versions of the plug-in. It is strongly recommended to use the 4D commands of the "Pictures" theme.

AP Save BMP 8 bits saves any 4D picture variable in a regular 8-bit BMP picture (256 colors and no compression). If an identically named file is located where you want to save the picture, it is replaced without warning. This command works on both Macintosh and Windows platforms.

If the operation is successfully completed, the function returns 0; otherwise, it returns a negative error code.
