End of this topic. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-09-03 14:20:45] techtonik@php.net I doubt that users can call this _feature_. Should I post another bug to be marked "won't fix" for future reference to users who will ask again and again? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-09-03 14:17:59] techtonik@php.net >> Why it is impossible to change the behavior to keep >> transparency by default? > BC Break, and second as you see with your picture, it is > not the best result you can have, people tend to mix > transparec and transparent color.

This doesn't seem like a feature to me, sorry. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-09-03 12:10:10] pajoye@php.net > JFY, a new fourth parameter "ignore_transparent" was > already added to imagerotate in PHP 5.1 - see I added it in HEAD after 5.0.x was branched, but thx for the notice :) > Why it is impossible to change the behavior to keep > transparency by default? BC Break, and second as you see with your picture, it is not the best result you can have, people tend to mix transparec and transparent color. There is an interpolation, which range to use to ignore the bgd color or a transparent color? There is no easy way without making the function way too complex. > Why change transparent to black while rotating in PHP4? It's a new _feature_. We do not add new feature to PHP4 and/or PHP5.0 Status closed then --Pierre ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
