Fields
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Alpha | Specifies that pixel data contains alpha values that are not pre-multiplied. |
| Canonical | The default pixel format of 32 bits per pixel. The format specifies 24-bit color depth and an 8-bit alpha channel. |
| DontCare | Specifies that pixel format is a don't care. |
| Extended | Reserved. |
| Format16bppArgb1555 | Specifies that pixel format is 16 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 32768 shades of color of which 5 bits are red, 5 bits are green, 5 bits are blue and 1 bit is alpha. |
| Format16bppGrayScale | The pixel format is 16 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 65536 shades of gray. |
| Format16bppRgb555 | Specifies that pixel format is 16 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 65536 shades of gray. |
| Format16bppRgb565 | Specifies that pixel format is 16 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 32768 shades of color of which 5 bits are red, 5 bits are green and 5 bits are blue. |
| Format1bppIndexed | Specifies that pixel format is 1 bit per pixel indexed color. The color table therefore has two colors in it. |
| Format24bppRgb | Specifies that pixel format is 24 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 16777216 shades of color of which 8 bits are red, 8 bits are green and 8 bits are blue. |
| Format32bppArgb | Specifies that pixel format is 32 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 16777216 shades of color of which 8 bits are red, 8 bits are green and 8 bits are blue. The 8 additional bits are alpha bits. |
| Format32bppPArgb | Specifies that pixel format is 32 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 16777216 shades of color of which 8 bits are red, 8 bits are green and 8 bits are blue. The 8 additional bits are pre-multiplied alpha bits. |
| Format32bppRgb | Specifies that pixel format is 24 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 16777216 shades of color of which 8 bits are red, 8 bits are green and 8 bits are blue. |
| Format48bppRgb | Specifies that pixel format is 48 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 16777216 shades of color of which 8 bits are red, 8 bits are green and 8 bits are blue. The 8 additional bits are alpha bits. |
| Format4bppIndexed | Specifies that pixel format is 4 bits per pixel indexed color. The color table therefore has 16 colors in it. |
| Format64bppArgb | Specifies pixel format is 64 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 16777216 shades of color of which 16 bits are red, 16 bits are green and 16 bits are blue. The 16 additional bits are alpha bits. |
| Format64bppPArgb | Specifies that pixel format is 64 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 16777216 shades of color of which 16 bits are red, 16 bits are green and 16 bits are blue. The 16 additional bits are pre-multiplied alpha bits. |
| Format8bppIndexed | Specifies that pixel format is 8 bits per pixel indexed color. The color table therefore has 256 colors in it. |
| Gdi | Specifies that pixel data contains GDI colors. |
| Indexed | Specifies that pixel data contains color indexed values which means they are an index to colors in the system color table, as opposed to individual color values. |
| Max | Specifies that pixel format is 64 bits per pixel. The color information specifies 16777216 shades of color of which 16 bits are red, 16 bits are green and 16 bits are blue. The 16 additional bits are alpha bits. |
| PAlpha | Specifies that pixel format contains pre-multiplied alpha values. |
| Undefined | Specifies that pixel format is undefined. |
