# BitmapTransform Class
 
This is a base class of all transforms presented in Graphics Mill for .NET.
 
**Namespace:** [Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/N_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms.htm.md)
 **Assembly:** Aurigma.GraphicsMill (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.dll)
 
## Syntax
  
```
Public Class BitmapTransform _Inherits UnitConverterHandler _Implements IPixelFormatSupport
```
 
```csharp
public class BitmapTransform : UnitConverterHandler, IPixelFormatSupport
```
 
## Remarks
 This abstract class contains partial implementation for all Graphics Mill for .NET transforms. In particular it provides method [IsPixelFormatSupported(PixelFormat)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_BitmapTransform_IsPixelFormatSupported_1_3e209c07.htm.md) and property [SupportedPixelFormats](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/P_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_BitmapTransform_SupportedPixelFormats.htm.md) that allows to determine what pixel format are supported by this transform and whether some certain format can be used. Also, it contains partial implementation of method [ApplyTransform(Bitmap)](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/M_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_Transforms_BitmapTransform_ApplyTransform_1_fd4033ef.htm.md) (and its overloads) which is used to apply the transform at the bitmap.
