BMP 1.05

Post by dilwyn »

Bob Spelten jr. has released version 1.05 of the BMP graphics viewer and converter, available from the Graphics page on my website at https://dilwyn.qlforum.co.uk/graphics/index.html

Convert BMP graphics (from 24-bit to 1-bit types) to QL graphics files - screens, PIC files, PSA/PAC files, or Page Designer pages. Convert from QL graphics files to BMP (16-bit or 24-bit) for transfer to other systems. View files, convert QL file types and convert between screen modes.

The QL files can now be RLE compressed as PAC files, using similar compression to compressed GD2 sprites, thanks to routines from Per Witte. RLE compression under the operating system is normally only used for GD2 sprites.

There is a 'scaling' option to allow a picture being viewed to be resize to fit the window. And some support for Mode 12 (Thor XVI) screens and QDesign compressed _Pgn and mode 2 mono files.
