ALPHA_8 bitmaps and getPixel

Question

I am trying to load a movement map from a PNG image. In order to save memory after I load the bitmap I do something like that.

 
 `Bitmap mapBmp = tempBmp.         


        

Answer 1

Seems to be an Android bug in handling ALPHA_8. I also tried copyPixelsToBuffer, to no avail. Simplest workaround is to waste lots of memory and use ARGB_8888.
