al_reset_bitmap_blender(3)

💅 al_reset_bitmap_blender(3) — the Allegro 5 glow-up page ✨

okay bestie, so you're deep in the Allegro 5 API (iconic library, no notes) and you found al_reset_bitmap_blender. it's a tiny little function but it's lowkey doing main character work for your bitmaps. let's get into it 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

void al_reset_bitmap_blender(void)

that's it. that's the whole vibe check. no arguments, no return value, just vibes 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like, <pink>resets the blender for this bitmap to the default</pink>. periodt. 💖

and the tea is: after you've reset the bitmap blender, the values you set for al_set_bitmap_blender(3)/al_set_separate_bitmap_blender(3) are the ones that get used instead. so it's giving "back to factory settings, bestie" — you're clearing out whatever custom blender this specific bitmap was rocking and handing control back to the general setters. slay 🔥

literally just call it and the bitmap's blender is default again, iykyk ✨
