I’m having a strange problem when pasting images I’ve copied from other applications. The width and height of the images are less than the original – by fractions of a pixel! The widths and heights aren’t whole pixels! The only time I’ve had any luck is when pasting images that were copied via PrtScr, the Windows Snipping tool, another screen capture utility I have, or GIMP.
I never have the problem importing saved images. And it’s not just a measurement issue, if I position the image a 0,0 over a shape or background that’s supposed to be the same size, you can see a border on the right and bottom of the image where the background bleeds through, both in the Flash IDE environment, and when published. The last row of pixels is semi-transparent, just as to be expected due to anti-aliasing a subpixel size.
Smoothing is disabled in the Photoshop import settings just in case.
I’m running Vista Ultimate x64
For the sake of testing, I’ve tried this with multiple sources:
PrtScr: source - 3200x1600, pasted image: 3200x1600 — CORRECT
Snipping Tool: source - 162x141, pasted image: 162x141 – CORRECT
ScreenHunter: source - 283x258, pasted image: 283x258 – CORRECT
GIMP: source - 700x700, pasted image: 700x700 – CORRECT
Photoshop CS3: source - 750x567, pasted image: 749.4x566.5
Fireworks CS3: source - 526x279, pasted image: 525.1x278.1
Paint Shop pro: source - 375x375, pasted image: 374.6x374.6
What in the world is going on?
I tried posting this to the Adobe flash forum/newsgroup and have received ZERO responses over a couple of weeks now. But I did give it time, so please no talk of cross posting :ne: This has been frustrating enough as is…
