# SDL_ConvertPixelsAndColorspace

Copy a block of pixels of one format and colorspace to another format and colorspace.

## Header File

Defined in [<SDL3/SDL_surface.h>](https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/blob/main/include/SDL3/SDL_surface.h)

## Syntax

```c
int SDL_ConvertPixelsAndColorspace(int width, int height, SDL_PixelFormatEnum src_format, SDL_Colorspace src_colorspace, SDL_PropertiesID src_properties, const void *src, int src_pitch, SDL_PixelFormatEnum dst_format, SDL_Colorspace dst_colorspace, SDL_PropertiesID dst_properties, void *dst, int dst_pitch);

```

## Function Parameters

|                        |                                                                                            |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **width**              | the width of the block to copy, in pixels                                                  |
| **height**             | the height of the block to copy, in pixels                                                 |
| **src_format**         | an [SDL_PixelFormatEnum](SDL_PixelFormatEnum) value of the `src` pixels format             |
| **src_colorspace**     | an [SDL_ColorSpace](SDL_ColorSpace) value describing the colorspace of the `src` pixels    |
| **src_properties**     | an [SDL_PropertiesID](SDL_PropertiesID) with additional source color properties, or 0      |
| **src**                | a pointer to the source pixels                                                             |
| **src_pitch**          | the pitch of the source pixels, in bytes                                                   |
| **dst_format**         | an [SDL_PixelFormatEnum](SDL_PixelFormatEnum) value of the `dst` pixels format             |
| **dst_colorspace**     | an [SDL_ColorSpace](SDL_ColorSpace) value describing the colorspace of the `dst` pixels    |
| **dst_properties**     | an [SDL_PropertiesID](SDL_PropertiesID) with additional destination color properties, or 0 |
| **dst**                | a pointer to be filled in with new pixel data                                              |
| **dst_pitch**          | the pitch of the destination pixels, in bytes                                              |

## Return Value

Returns 0 on success or a negative error code on failure; call
[SDL_GetError](SDL_GetError)() for more information.
