Converting a Bitmap to a 4-Color Format

Because Microsoft Windows® CE versions 2.0 and later support 8-bit color, color resources for these applications do not require conversion.

  1. Open the image in the resource editor.

  2. Double-click the blank area of the left pane of the graphics editor window to open the Bitmap Properties dialog box.

  3. Choose a number in the Colors drop-down box.

    Select 4 to convert the bitmap to a 4-color image.

    **Note   **Do not keep two separate image sources to develop for target devices at the same time. If the link flags are set correctly, the images convert automatically between 4-color and 16-color bitmaps during linking.
