Description
This function saves a portion of a device context as a PNG format bitmap file to disk. If this function fails for some reason, it will return false and you can get the error code from the MGL_result function.
This function supports saving in native formats of 1, 4, 8, 24, and 32 bits. Images with bit depths of 15 or 16 bits will be expanded to 24 bits.
Note that the source rectangle for the bitmap to be saved is not clipped to the current clipping rectangle for the device context, but it is mapped to the current viewport. If you specify dimensions that are larger than the current device context, you will get garbage in the bitmap file as a result.
