Author Topic: Image::SaveToFile with .psd (Read 1692 times)

Hello

I am currently trying to load a .psd file, modify it and then save it as a new file. I have it working with all of the other supported file types but for some reason I can only load .psd files. I know they are loading because I have them rendering to the window, but when I try and save it using SaveToFile, it fails. I have no idea why, its not my code as the other supported image formats work.

I'm using SFML 1.6 with the libraries recompiled for VS2010.

Thanks in advance

Saving PSD files is not supported by SFML.

By the way, why did you choose this format? There's no way to make good use of it with SFML (basically, only Photoshop can).

Ah okay, thank you for your help. May I suggest making that clear on the features page. You mention supported image types, maybe just split this into two lines with .psd taken off of the saving one.

I have just written a little application that takes an image, modifies it and then saves the modified image as a new file. I was only trying to support .psd files because I thought "why not?" seen as they were listed as a supported image format.

indeed.

In the documentation :

The supported image formats are bmp, png, tga and jpg.

On the features page :

Yes, this needs to be corrected.
