Title: Frames & Edges
Post by: dluby on June 09, 2006, 09:12 AM

Hi,

I captured a screenshot and applied a frame (RaggedBR2.png) to it, saved it (PNG format) and it still appears fine in ScreenCaptor.

Then I copied it and after pasting it into Lotus Notes (ver. 6.0) or Microsoft Word 2003 the image appears complete but with a jagged line through it, while it should have the lower right of the image missing.

Is this my misunderstanding of how this should work?

Thanks

Damian

it's possible the application you pasted the image into doesn't support .png transparencies, if you can see the bottom right corner.

I've just pasted the image into IrfanView (ver. 3.98) and its also showing the bottom right corner. I then tried to open the file from within IrfanView and its still the same (this was to avoid any possible problems with copying/pasting being the culprit).

I've just saved the image as JPG and opened it IrFanView and its fine.  I then opened the PNG format image from Word and it opened fine (but not from IrfanView). It may be an issue with copying/pasting and maybe IrfranView doesn't automatically use transparencies? Ah sure not to worry!
