Hmmmm. I have a strange problem. The application for which I develop plugins seems to have changed its QuickTime image support from one version to the next. In all previous versions (v 10.1 back), the PICT images with alpha transparency extracted from Resource Fork data work fairly well. In the newest version (v 10.5), though, it appears that the alpha channel is causing problems (image shows as grey, black, or just alpha outlined grey areas).
Since I am depending upon the image support of the application, there isn't much that I can do. If I could find an image import library with decent PICT support that works in MacOS 10.any then that might do the trick (for instance, I've replaced the crappy QT PNG support used by the application for libPng in the recent past - this not only allowed PNG support on 64-bit Windows but increased load times by about five times).
Does anyone have suggestions/links to such an image import library for C/C++?
Thanks,
Robert
