After I modified copy.c to update the BITMAPFILEHEADER and BITMAPINFOHEADER of the output of the program, I get a file output, but I cannot open it because of the error, "Invalid or Unsupported Image Format". When I remove the modifications I made below, the file opens. Thanks in advance for helping.

  • Often, unrelated code can cause problems. Can you post all of your code please?

  • @CliffB I added the rest of my code. So far the for loop towards the bottom increases only the width of the bmp by a scale factor of n.

Your calculation for bi.biSizeImage is wrong. The number of bytes per line is bi.biWidth * sizeof(RGBTRIPLE) + outputPadding, and there are abs(bi.biHeight) lines.

  • So I changed it to bi.biSizeImage = (bi.biWidth * sizeof(RGBTRIPLE) + outputPadding) * abs(bi.biHeight); but the same error still comes up.

  • With your code posted above, I can view the output file (it's missing some vertical resize, but no error message when viewed within the IDE)

  • It finally worked when I tried using chrome instead of safari. I guess I'll use chrome for cs50 from now on. Thanks for your help.
