al_get_pixel_block_size(3)

💖 NAME 💖

al_get_pixel_block_size — the Allegro 5 API function that gives you the byte size of a pixel block. This page is from the Allegro reference manual (filed under Library Functions Manual), and she's here to hand you the byte count tea. 💅

📜 SYNOPSIS 📜

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

int al_get_pixel_block_size(int format)

💬 DESCRIPTION 💬

Okay so bestie, here's the whole vibe: this function returns the number of bytes that a block of pixels with this format occupies. That's it — no hidden side quest, no weird caveat, just the byte count for the block. Slay. ✨

⏰ SINCE ⏰

5.1.9. She's been around since then, periodt. 🫶
