public RasterImage createAlphaImage()
public:
RasterImage^ CreateAlphaImage();
The newly create image, which contains the source image alpha channel data.
Only 16-bit, 32-bit, and 64-bit images can have an alpha channel. If the source image has another color resolution, the result is an image filled with zeros.
Typically, the alpha channel contains a mask that is used for transparency.
For more information, refer to Implementing Transparency.
For more information, refer to Grayscale Images.
