1) btw it doesn't allow for font=normal (font)
OK I can make it recognise this. By the way, should Default be the same as Normal or should it be 0 in your opinion?
2) Unfortunately,the truecolor poi rendering of say
DayXpm="32 32 0 1" Colormode=16 is incorrect and causes mapsource to hangup.
Ah, a fix for another bug introduced that one. I only expect to read in colour mode 0 true colour images at the moment. The question is how to represent a true colour image with a transparent pixel. I would suggest DayXpm="2 2 0 1" "#124455" "none" "#124455" "none" and the compiler would pick an unused pixel to be the transparent one. I take that you are adding an extra pixel to the list and specifing the colour mode directly, something like this? DayXpm="2 2 0 1" ColorMode=16 "#ff00ff" "#124455" "#ff00ff" "#124455" "#ff00ff" Everywhere else I just ignore any specified colour mode and use the lowest colour mode that can represent the given image and I would like to be able to do that for true colour images too. Do you know if colour mode=32 true colour images are allowed? ..Steve
