That cb relevant, but I've explored further & have some results. When I crop a JPG image with Fotoxx or Gwenview, then view it with Gwenview, the colors remain vivid ; this is true whether I rename the new version in Gwenview or not. It's only when I crop a PNG image in Gwenview & save it in place (ie with the same name), that the colors are faded & that's only when viewed with Gwenview, not eg with Feh. So I can avoid the problem either by cropping only with Fotoxx or by renaming them whenever I do it with Gwenview or by converting PNGs to JPGs before cropping them. The bad case does look like a Gwenview bug, but KDE bugs tend to disappear into the ocean, if reported. Thanks for the comments. I will try redoing the faded versions, tho' that will mean getting them from the I/net again. Any further suggestions re causes of the bad case are welcome. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
