hi,
Has rb changed somthing with internal picture format:
I was testing 'LoadSaveJPEG by Purple Shark Software' and 'Micono
RbJPEGLib' by Micono.
If I save picture from rb45 made app then saved jpg picture is
hor&vertically swapped when saved on win98 mashine, but if compiled
with rb4.0 then everyting is correct.
On the otherhand everything is working normally when done on macos9.1
and macos9.2.
Anybody seen this? or have workaround?
Yes, I've seen it. It's forcing users to load QT on Windows. I know that
it comes loaded on the new OS, but clients have a fear that their
Windows customer will not want to download QT for Windows. I tried every
rational argument, but this remains a big fear for some people.
So I tried both plugins and did contact Micono. I received on reply,
but that's it. I tried Purple Sharks and got the same thing, I just gave
up except in the cases where the app only reads JPEGs.
While I understand the logic, relying on QT for Windows is a bit bit of
a drag. Hopefully, clients will become less and less paranoid about it.
