This should probably be easy in Cocoa targets but for now I'm pretty  
sure you have to jump through some hoops:

1). Grab a REALpictureDescription with REALLockPictureDescription  
asking for a pictureMacintoshGWorld

2). Use QDBegin/EndCGContext on REALpictureDescription.pictureData to  
get a CGContextRef

3). Use CGBitmapContextCreateImage (or some other mechanism) to get a  
CGImageRef from the CGContextRef

This should be pretty straightforward but there's code up to step #2  
in the PNG Utilities plugin if you want an example (hit the link in  
my sig). Unfortunately CGBitmapContextCreateImage requires Mac OS X  
10.4, and supporting lesser systems may require copying the data out  
of the CGContextRef and creating the CGImageRef manually (PNG  
Utilities copies the data, but for different reasons).

Frank.

Hi,

just to confirm.

For Linux the kRBPixelRGB24 mode is the fastest for
REALBuildPictureFromBuffer. Correct?

Before I used kRBPixelBGRX32.
