cannot save BMP file

[Jane.Yu]

Hi, I am trying to save an image to a BMP file, but it always shows error (invalid image type). For the Tiff format it is OK. Can anyone tell me the reason?

Thanks a lot,

Jane

Hello,

I suppose your image is 16bit, bmp doesn't support it, but tiff does.

Have a look at this page to know what type of image to input: https://www.ni.com/docs/en-US/bundle/ni-vision-labview-api-ref/page/imaqvision/imaq_write_image_and_...

Yes the image type is I16. Thanks!
