Bitmap vs BitmapEx

[Andreas Viklund via DotNetMonster.com]

Hi!

I am not really sure how to use the OpennetCF BitmapEX class. Could you use
it in the same way as the .NET CF's bitmap? It does not have the getpixel
and setpixel property, but lockbits and unlockbits, which I want to use,
but I cant figure out how to load a jpg-image to the BitmapEx. Is that
possible?

Is it possible to copy a Bitmap to a BitmapEx, or the other way around?

Best regards

As with Bitmap you can use the constructor which takes a filename e.g.

BitmapEx mybitmap = new BitmapEx("\\My Documents\\picture.jpg");

Dim mybitmap As New BitmapEx("\My Documents\picture.jpg")
