Re: [Swftools-common] Problems with PNG placement

[Mick]

Hi Chris,

Not sure I explained the problem well enough. Let me try again. The 
first row (top row) and first column (left column) of pixels in the 
image are being duplicated. This is making the image one pixel wider and 
one pixel longer and as a result the last row (bottom row) and last 
column (right column) of pixels are not appearing (effectively being 
pushed off the stage).

It would not be possible to see this with the image you attached in your 
last message as all the pixels are red. If a black border, one pixel 
thick were added around the edge of the image, then the problem would 
present itself. The resulting swf would display an image with a black 
border two pixels thick on the left and top, and no border on the bottom 
and right.

I have included the original attachments again (zipped up this time) so 
you can have a better look. I used a border that changed from black to 
yellow so I could establish if the pixels were being duplicated or if 
the image was being corrupted and the last row/column were being shown 
as the first row/column. The png was created using the GIMP.

Hope this makes more sense.

Cheers,

Mick
