al_get_pixel(3) 🎀

okay so real talk: this page is from the Library Functions Manual, and it’s all about the Allegro 5 API. Buckle up, bestie — it’s a short one but lowkey important. ✨

NAME 🌸

• al_get_pixel — Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

ALLEGRO_COLOR al_get_pixel(ALLEGRO_BITMAP *bitmap, int x, int y)

DESCRIPTION 💅

Grab a pixel’s color value from the bitmap you specify, bestie. That’s the whole vibe.

heads up: this operation is slow on non-memory bitmaps. If you’re gonna use this function multiple times on the same bitmap, consider locking the bitmap first. no cap, it’s giving “please optimize me” 😭

that’s the whole page, periodt 💖 source/version: Allegro reference manual — and ngl there’s no date line printed here, so I’m not inventing one 🫶
