Images showing as shadows

Post by andyh1234 » Fri May 21, 2021 7:11 pm

Hi,

Has anyone else come across this issue. I have a stack. been working fine for years but now half of the graphics load as black shadows of the png, only showing black and white outlines of the alpha channel. The path is fine, I've tried importing them as controls as well and saving the image in other formats.

I just cannot put a handle on it, is there a stack wide setting that could be causing the images to render this way, or something I could try to reset on a stack wide setting.

Building for windows and mac, not mobile.

Thanks

Andy

Just to add as I have just discovered this, if I set the rotation of the image to 1 (from 0) the images render perfectly.

I wonder if that rotation thing would solve Richmond's issue ?
