| Author/Date | GIF format problem |
| Roman 28/03/2002 3:59am | Today I worked with I.Mage and
found one bug with GIF format. I open GIF file, edit it and save changes. Later, when i tried to open this file by any other graphic editor (Photoed by MS for ex.) It says wrong file format. PS: I opened this file again with I.Mage saved it as PNG format. In this case I can open it with photoed and save to GIF. |
| Matthew Allen 28/03/2002 9:03am | Do you still have the broken GIF file?
Send it to me if you do, I'd like to see it. |
| Roman 28/03/2002 11:45am | I did it. Please see and replay.
WBR. |
| fReT 01/04/2002 8:07am | I got the file.
After looking through the GIF spec again I found that you have to write a little "trailer" block, 1 byte long at the end of the file. It doesn't mean much, other than the file is officially finished. Obviously some applications required that and others don't care. But for completeness I've added code to write it out in v0.95 Thanks for the input |
