NAME

SYNOPSIS

9              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>
10
11              ALLEGRO_BITMAP *al_create_sub_bitmap(ALLEGRO_BITMAP *parent,
12                 int x, int y, int w, int h)
13

DESCRIPTION

15       Creates a sub-bitmap of the parent, at the specified coordinates and of
16       the specified size.  A sub-bitmap is a bitmap that shares drawing  mem‐
17       ory  with a pre-existing (parent) bitmap, but possibly with a different
18       size and clipping settings.
19
20       The sub-bitmap may originate off or extend past the parent bitmap.
21
22       See the discussion in al_get_backbuffer(3) about using  sub-bitmaps  of
23       the backbuffer.
24
25       The parent bitmap's clipping rectangles are ignored.
26
27       If a sub-bitmap was not or cannot be created then NULL is returned.
28
29       Note  that  destroying parents of sub-bitmaps will not destroy the sub-
30       bitmaps; instead the sub-bitmaps become invalid and should no longer be
31       used.
