# al\_draw\_tinted\_bitmap(3)

Allegro 5 API

## NAME

al\_draw\_tinted\_bitmap - Allegro 5 API

## SYNOPSIS

-

  ```
  #include <allegro5/allegro.h>
  void al_draw_tinted_bitmap(ALLEGRO_BITMAP *bitmap, ALLEGRO_COLOR tint,
     float dx, float dy, int flags)
  ```

## DESCRIPTION

Like [al\_draw\_bitmap(3)](/al_draw_bitmap/3.md) but multiplies all colors in the bitmap with the given color. For example:

-

  ```
  al_draw_tinted_bitmap(bitmap, al_map_rgba_f(0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5), x, y, 0);
  ```

The above will draw the bitmap 50% transparently (r/g/b values need to be pre-multiplied with the alpha component with the default blend mode).

-

  ```
  al_draw_tinted_bitmap(bitmap, al_map_rgba_f(1, 0, 0, 1), x, y, 0);
  ```

The above will only draw the red component of the bitmap.

See [al\_draw\_bitmap(3)](/al_draw_bitmap/3.md) for a note on restrictions on which bitmaps can be drawn where.
