Remarks
When a texture is rendered, during the copy operation the source alpha value is modulated by this alpha value according to the following formula:
srcA = srcA * alpha
Alpha modulation is not always supported by the renderer; it will return -1 if alpha modulation is not supported.
You can call SDL_GetRendererInfo() to fill in an SDL_RendererInfo structure with the information about the current renderer. This structure will have SDL_TEXTUREMODULATE_ALPHA set in the mod_modes mask if alpha modulation is supported.
