Any news?

Any chance to have this fixed? Or, at least, any workaround?

Enrico,

In function FW_ReadImage() at FWH\source\function\imgtxtio.prg please modify this:

elseif ( UseGDI() .or. lGdipImage ) .and. cExt $ "PNG,JPG,JPEG,GIF,TIF,TIFF,EMF,WMF"

with

elseif ( UseGDI() .or. lGdipImage ) .and. cExt $ "PNG,JPG,JPEG,GIF,TIF,TIFF,EMF,WMF,PAK"

I don't like this fix very much. What if I'd want to load an image with a different extension? Better having a default format used for any unknown extension.

Enrico,

> Better having a default format used for any unknown extension

There is no a default format for unknown extensions

Why don't you want to use the standard format BMP ?

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

There is no a default format for unknown extensions

I know. That's why I proposed to implement a default format so that we can use any extension for an image of that default format (ie. if default format is BMP we can use TEST.PAK or TEST.ABC instead of TEST.BMP).

Why don't you want to use the standard format BMP ?

I'm using a BMP renamed PAK (customer request, sorry).

Please note that it used to work in previous FWH releases.

The present code recognizes the image type by the file extension.
We will modify the function to recognize bmp files renamed to any non-image file type extension and communicate the revision to you asap.

Thank you.
