TCustomBitmap.Monochrome property

Declaration

property Monochrome: Boolean read GetMonochrome write SetMonochrome;

Description

Monochrome is a Boolean property which indicates whether the raw image data is represented using pixels of a single color.

The property value is True when the descriptor for the shared raw image data has a color depth of 1. The PixelFormat property will also contain the value pf1bit.

Setting a new value in Monochrome causes the value in PixelFormat to be changed. When set to True, PixelFormat is set to pf1bit. When set to False, the value pfDevice is assigned to the PixelFormat property.

Changing the value in Monochrome (and PixelFormat) causes the image data to be discarded, and the Handle for the internal shared image is freed.

No actions are performed when Monochrome is set to the existing value for the property.
