.SH "NAME"

SDL_CreateRGBSurfaceFrom \- Create an SDL_Surface from pixel data

.SH "SYNOPSIS"

.PP

\fB#include "SDL\&.h"

.sp

\fBSDL_Surface *\fBSDL_CreateRGBSurfaceFrom\fP\fR(\fBvoid *pixels, int width, int height, int depth, int pitch, Uint32 Rmask, Uint32 Gmask, Uint32 Bmask, Uint32 Amask\fR);

.SH "DESCRIPTION"

.PP

Creates an SDL_Surface from the provided pixel data\&.

.PP

The data stored in \fBpixels\fR is assumed to be of the \fBdepth\fR specified in the parameter list\&. The pixel data is not copied into the \fBSDL_Surface\fR structure so it should not be freed until the surface has been freed with a called to \fISDL_FreeSurface\fR\&. \fBpitch\fR is the length of each scanline in bytes\&. 

.PP

See \fI\fBSDL_CreateRGBSurface\fP\fR for a more detailed description of the other parameters\&.

.SH "RETURN VALUE"

.PP

Returns the created surface, or \fBNULL\fR upon error\&.
