"Image format is not supported"
john26

Gideros seems to object to one of my bitmaps giving this error:
main.lua:1486: noedit.png: Image format is not supported.
I can't see anything wrong with the PNG file "noedit.png". I made it in MS Paint and other programs accept and display it. Eg Windows Picture and Fax Viewer shows it as does MS Paint. Corona also accepts this PNG.
The code is at line 1486 is
editbutton=Sprite.new()
editbutton:addChild(Bitmap.new(Texture.new("noedit.png")))
Any ideas?

I opened the file in Paint and saved again as a PNG and it works fine in Gideros. Seems the other programs silently recognised it as a BMP and displayed.

BTW it's great the level of support you get here. Direct response from the programmer within hours. Certainly wouldn't get that in certain other places...
