Works really well Boddhi but it's dependant on a Library and so there is concern that it won't work with future PB versions. Many PB Developers have got stung in that way in the past :cry:

If it sounds simple, you have not grasped the complexity.

I thought this topic looked familiar, and I was right: Boddhi posted about this lib 10 years ago in 2010, and then again here in this topic in 2020. Both were posted in November of their years, too. Very strange!

Why such a long gap between announcements? Oh well; I look forward to the November 2030 re-post.

Hello,

New version 1.50 - PB 6.00+ - Windows X64.

Well, you see, you won't have to wait until 2030 for a new release! :wink:

And nothing strange either!

I develop this library for my personal need and make it available for those who are interested.
I modify it according to my needs or if someone reports a bug or asks me for an improvement.
But to be honest, I hardly ever have either of them! So, either my lib is perfect (which I wouldn't pretend to say...) or it doesn't interest many people.
It therefore only evolves when the need arises.
Especially since intermediate versions had been published on the French forum. Only the missing English translation update prevented me from posting on the English forum.
Voilà.

@IdeasVacuum
Eternal debate on the use of userlibs.
As with everything, there are pros and cons, I won't go over that :wink:
As long as my brain allows me to continue coding, I will keep it up to date. Note, however, that it has existed for 12 years already and rare are the free software or developments (PB or not) that are maintained for so long, right? :wink:
I'm not forcing anyone and it's up to you to use it or not. No problem with that :D

Happy Holidays to all. :D

Hi boddhi,

I would like to try your lib, but I need it for an x86 project. Could you also make the lib available for this?

Another thing is, does this lib support heic images (High Efficiency Image File Format)? Its mostly used on smartphones..

Kind regards
