PureBasic Forums - English

Is it possible to use your splendid gadget with a windows with image background ?

both links are broken;
any chance of re-up?

It was among a bunch of stuff I lost last year. If someone has it and can email it to me I'll upload it again but failing that I just don't have it.

I'll post it here for a few weeks (maybe during that time it will be caught by the Wayback Machine ).

@Edit: Removed temporary link.

Thanks to davido and Demivec the project is back online! Link in the first post works again and for added safety I've posted the .pbi code there too. So it shouldn't get lost again.

The code is crashing on all eight animated gifs at this page - https://www.fastcodesign.com/1665547/8- ... -l-reynaud

I don't know the reason for the decoding problem but the reason for the crash is there are two instances of code like the following which assume a valid ptr, but the ptr is null with those images due to decoding problem: Needs to be: The image still won't render but the crash is fixed.

H Keya, netmaestro

Windows 10 / PureBasic 5.51 (x86 / x64)

All eight examples worked from the link Keya provided; didn't make any changes to the code (download from the first post).
- saved GIFs directly to the GifDecoder folder, adding to the existing images

They're working here too, so I really don't know what could be going wrong for you. Tested on PB 5.51 x86 and x64 Windows 7.

[edit] No longer applicable.

sorry guys i mustve used been using a modified or older version. I still think that ptr check is good though hehe. brilliant work as always netmaestro!

Thanks Keya, you've taught me a few things along the way and I hold your opinion in high esteem

I completed the 24bit version today, code is added to the first post (it's also included in the download along with the original)
