Initializes a new instance of the GcBitmap class.

Initializes a new instance of the GcBitmap class and creates the image.

The image content is not initialized and can contain any random data.

If subsequent rendering is going to cover the whole surface of the bitmap, or if CreateGraphics(Color?) will be called on the bitmap with a non-null background color, clearing it (which is a lengthy operation for large bitmaps) is not needed. If some areas of the bitmap are going to be left untouched, they must be cleared to avoid the possibility of random artifacts showing.

Creates a BilevelBitmap from the current GcBitmap.

This method does not perform any transformations of the color palette. It is expected that the source GcBitmap has already been converted to bi-level palette using some thresholding or dithering effects. The ToBilevelBitmap(ColorChannel, bool, bool) method just copies data from a specified color channel to a new instance of the BilevelBitmap class.

Creates a GrayscaleBitmap from the current GcBitmap.

This method does not perform any transformations of the color palette. It is expected that the source GcBitmap has already been converted to grayscale palette using a GrayscaleEffect or something like that. Alternatively, you can use this method to extract individual channels of a color image without any prior conversion, and treat the resulting GrayscaleBitmap simply as a representation of some image data with 8 bits per pixel. The ToGrayscaleBitmap(ColorChannel, bool) method just copies data from a specified color channel to a new instance of the GrayscaleBitmap class. If you need to copy some color channel to an existing instance of GrayscaleBitmap, use the ExportColorChannel(GrayscaleBitmap, ColorChannel) method instead.
