Hello,

we use the latest version of ImageEn (Build 6.0.0.25.9884).

Our customer wants to convert a transparent PNG file to BMP.
He creates the PNG file with Photoshop.

But after the conversion the output BMP has fragmented segments
of different colors on the former-transparent parts of the image.

We use this code:

var
  bmp: TIEBitmap;
begin
  bmp := TIEBitmap.Create;
  try
    bmp.Read('C:\input.png');
    bmp.Write('C:\output.bmp');
  finally
    bmp.Free;
  end;
end;


Does anyone has an idea how to fix this issue?

Hi

Can you also attach your source PNG file.

Also, try calliing RemoveAlphaChannel prior to saving:

Hi,

Before saving it as a bmp file you need to render the image to a white or black background image without alpha channel. That should fix the problem. Bmp does not support transparencies.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, the function RemoveAlphaChannel(True) fixed the problem.

Hi

FYI, in the next update it will auto-merge for non-alpha formats.
