Description

The ToPng method of the Bitmap class is used to export the bitmap image as a PNG format byte array. This method is useful when you need to save or transmit the bitmap data in a widely supported image format like PNG.

Usage

To use the ToPng method, you first need to have an instance of the Bitmap class. Once you have the bitmap ready, simply call the ToPng method on the instance to get the PNG byte array.

Example

// Example of using the ToPng method

// Assume 'bitmap' is an instance of Sandbox.Bitmap
Sandbox.Bitmap bitmap = new Sandbox.Bitmap();

// Perform operations on the bitmap, e.g., drawing, setting pixels, etc.
// ...

// Export the bitmap to a PNG byte array
byte[] pngData = bitmap.ToPng();

// The pngData can now be saved to a file or used as needed
