bitmap images(256 color mode)

[rswy]

Hi,
While saving images as bitmap files do 256 true color images have to be dealt with separately?
There was a piece of code in the Compaq VF forum which worked well for 16,32 and 24 bit color modes but not for the 256 color mode.I'd like to know if there is some way by which this can be made possible.
Thanx

There's another implementation of bitmap saving in my XFTGDI module (See XSaveBitmap). I think I didn't test it with 256-color mode, but it evolved from Windows SDK C sample, so it's supposed to work.

P.S. Don't get excited by existence of iDepth argument -- color depth conversion is just in plans :-).
