🌸 NAME 🌸

al_clone_bitmap — Allegro 5 API 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bestie, here’s the exact code vibe:

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

ALLEGRO_BITMAP *al_clone_bitmap(ALLEGRO_BITMAP *bitmap)

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here’s the tea: this function creates a new bitmap with al_create_bitmap(3), and copies the pixel data from the old bitmap across. slay. 💅

The newly created bitmap will be created with the current new bitmap flags, and not the ones that were used to create the original bitmap. important!! 🫶

And if the new bitmap is a memory bitmap, its projection bitmap is reset to be orthographic. no cap. ✨
