Hi Jacobulus

What do you think of the format of the Color Table in the BMP file format? Apparently the Color Table entries are 4 bytes long for all DIB Headers except BITMAPCOREHEADER. Do you think it's worth mentioning this obsolete detail?

Also do you think it would be useful to redeclare the 4-byte Color Table format from RGBAX 8.8.8.0.8 to 8.8.8.8.0 ? It would give the indexed color (palettized) bitmaps Alpha channel and transparency capability!

I think I could convince Microsoft to revise their MSDN documentation about RGBQUAD.rgbReserved, because the documentation team is down the hall from me... See:

I don’t really know much about the BMP format. You’d probably get a better response from the people reading talk:BMP file format, or from someone like user:Dicklyon. –jacobolus (t) 07:20, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
