I'm playing around with rotating images and am wondering about the phenomenon of "fuzzy edges".
Let us just suppose I have a GIF image which I want to rotate in increments of 45 degs: all very simple: described in Help files & so forth. What is not explained is that the edges of the image (if it is plain colour) or the whole image (if it is a picture) will deteriorate markedly as it rotates. This effectively means that the 'rotate' term is not much use. If one has a family of images (in the case above I would need 8) that each represent the image rotated at certain increments one can keep replacing images (like a slide show) to give an impression of rotation. One could use an animated GIF.....or a Quicktime Movie....or....blah, blah, blah. Makes your stack much larger! The problem with this is if one is using the rotating image as the template for the windowShape...... The 'rotate' term is great, in theory; but how can one keep the image quality intact? Ideas gratefully received.
