.SH SYNOPSIS

\f[C]
#include\ <allegro5/allegro.h>

ALLEGRO_LOCKED_REGION\ *al_lock_bitmap_blocked(ALLEGRO_BITMAP\ *bitmap,
\ \ \ int\ flags)
\f[]
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
Like al_lock_bitmap(3alleg5), but allows locking bitmaps with a blocked
pixel format (i.e.\ a format for which al_get_pixel_block_width(3alleg5)
or al_get_pixel_block_height(3alleg5) do not return 1) in that format.
To that end, this function also does not allow format conversion.
For bitmap formats with a block size of 1, this function is identical to
calling
\f[C]al_lock_bitmap(bmp,\ al_get_bitmap_format(bmp),\ flags)\f[].
.RS
.PP
\f[I]Note:\f[] Currently there are no drawing functions that work when
the bitmap is locked with a compressed format.
al_get_pixel(3alleg5) will also not work.
