Thanks for responding Jussi, The image is a result of an image.load previously in the code. It may have been loaded as a gif, jpg, png or bmp. 'this works ok imgfile = user.home &/ "tmpfile.jpg" imageout.Save(imgfile) '------------------ 'this works ok imgfile = user.home &/ "tmpfile.png" imageout.Save(imgfile) '------------------ ' this does not work. error message say 'cannot save file' imgfile = user.home &/ "tmpfile.gif" imageout.Save(imgfile)
I have written a few apps in gambas, with plenty of file handling, but I don't generally use gifs. I tried it with images, pictures, pictureboxes. and in every case I can save anything but a gif. Its driving me nuts. I cannot see any other postings about this problem. So I guess it must be something with my setup. Have you any ideas of what to try next?
