The bitmap tool creates an untitled mask bitmap from the
Differences window, swapping black and white, and applies the mask to the baseline and result bitmaps.
-
Choose one of the following actions:
- Keep the baseline and result bitmaps with the mask applied
- Save the bitmap files. The mask is now a permanent part of the bitmap files.
- Unapply the mask
- Close the mask bitmap window. Saving is optional.
- Keep the mask as it is
- Save the mask file.
- Edit the mask
- Choose
and close the mask bitmap window. This un-applies the mask.
The Open Agent and Classic Agent capture bitmaps in different color depths. By default, the Open Agent captures bitmaps using
the current desktop settings for color depth. The Classic Agent captures bitmaps as 24-bit images. If you create a mask file
for the captured bitmap using the Bitmap tool, the mask file is saved as a 24-bit bitmap. If the bitmap mask file does not
have the same color depth as the bitmap that you capture, an error occurs. To ensure that
VerifyBitmap functions do not fail due to different color-depth settings between the captured image and the mask image, ensure that the
bitmaps have the same color depth.
