Hi PhoneyDeveloper,
Yes, I had read those and am coming to the conclusion that what I want is not directly supported. I have also discovered that UIImage SHOULD only contain an image of maximum size 1024 x 1024 pixels, which is also "interesting"
I will now try and manually alter the buffer and remove all the alpha bytes (that is, I will have to check first if I really do have 8 bits per colour component in my graphics context
I am also wondering if there is another way I could get at the pixel data in my photo. Let's see .... will post the result soon.
thank you,
S
