SDL_GetRGBA - Man Page
Get RGBA values from a pixel in the specified format.
Header File
Defined in SDL3/SDL_pixels.h
Synopsis
#include "SDL3/SDL.h" void SDL_GetRGBA(Uint32 pixel, const SDL_PixelFormatDetails *format, const SDL_Palette *palette, Uint8 *r, Uint8 *g, Uint8 *b, Uint8 *a);
Description
This function uses the entire 8-bit [0..255] range when converting color components from pixel formats with less than 8-bits per RGB component (e.g., a completely white pixel in 16-bit RGB565 format would return [0xff, 0xff, 0xff] not [0xf8, 0xfc, 0xf8]).
If the surface has no alpha component, the alpha will be returned as 0xff (100% opaque).
Function Parameters
- pixel
a pixel value.
- format
a pointer to SDL_PixelFormatDetails
describing the pixel format.- palette
an optional palette for indexed formats, may be NULL.
- r
a pointer filled in with the red component, may be NULL.
- g
a pointer filled in with the green component, may be NULL.
- b
a pointer filled in with the blue component, may be NULL.
- a
a pointer filled in with the alpha component, may be NULL.
Thread Safety
It is safe to call this function from any thread, as long as the palette is not modified.
Availability
This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
