Hi Helge
I believe I've run into that issue before when creating composited
images. I fixed it with the following hack in libImaging/Paste.c:135 @
paste_mask_RGBA
Replaced the for loop with the following:
for (y = 0; y < ysize; y++) {
UINT8* out = (UINT8*) imOut->image[y+dy]+dx*pixelsize;
UINT8* in = (UINT8*) imIn->image[y+sy]+sx*pixelsize;
UINT8* mask = (UINT8*) imMask->image[y+sy]+sx*4+3;
for (x = 0; x < xsize; x++) {
for (i = 0; i < pixelsize; i++) {
*mask = 255; // XXX Disable masking (transparency bug)
// if (i == 3) {*out = 255; out++, in++;continue;} //
XXX Disable masking (transparency bug)
*out = BLEND(*mask, *out, *in, tmp1, tmp2);
out++, in++;
}
mask += 4;
}
}
}
(You may want to swap the comments, I don't remember which line fixed
it, it's been a while)
