When GIF files are saved the transparency information is lost, it is replaced by some determined color (always the same for the same image but can differ between images). This seems to affect all GIF images: I tried on my files, files from internet and "Tigers.gif" that comes with the library.
procedure TestGIF;
var
GIF: ImagingComponents.TImagingGIF;
begin
GIF := ImagingComponents.TImagingGIF.Create;
try
GIF.LoadFromFile('Tigers.gif');
GIF.SaveToFile('Tigers-COPY.gif');
finally
GIF.Free;
end;
end;
All other file formats were disabled by relevant switches in "ImagingOptions.inc".
