Hi Robert and Stephan, I can see the problem using osgviewer. The images I use are available from: http://cvs.flightgear.org/viewvc/data/Textures/Sky/
Here I list some images that show the problems: [Black Edges instead of transparency] broken_n.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced cirrus_n.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced cl_cb.png: PNG image data, 512 x 512, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced cl_cu.png: PNG image data, 1024 x 512, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced cl_cu2.png: PNG image data, 512 x 256, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced cl_cumulus.png: PNG image data, 1024 x 1024, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced cl_ns.png: PNG image data, 1024 x 1024, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced cl_ns_white.png: PNG image data, 1024 x 1024, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced cl_stratus.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced cloud.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced few_n.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced inner_halo.png: PNG image data, 64 x 64, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced moon.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced outer_halo.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced scattered_n.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced sun.png: PNG image data, 128 x 128, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced [CGBitmapContextCreate got error] broken.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit gray+alpha, non-interlaced cirrus.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit gray+alpha, non-interlaced cl_cumulus2.png: PNG image data, 1024 x 1024, 8-bit gray+alpha, non-interlaced cl_st.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit gray+alpha, non-interlaced few.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit gray+alpha, non-interlaced scattered.png: PNG image data, 256 x 256, 8-bit gray+alpha, non-interlaced Stephan, I tried kCGImageAlphaFirst as you said, but it only showed the following errors on loading RGBA images (e.g. cl_cumulus.png): <Error>: CGBitmapContextCreate: unsupported parameter combination: 8 integer bits/component; 32 bits/pixel; 3-component colorspace; kCGImageAlphaFirst; 4096 bytes/row. <Error>: CGContextDrawImage: invalid context Could you make some tests with these images on your end too?
