g'day Mattias,

thanks for that detailed explanation of the details of TLazIntfImage and FPImage !

that has highlighted another important issue that i was not aware of: our code also makes heavy use of palette operations to reduce images to very compact grayscales - so i'll have to think through the lack of them in FPImage very carefully. there's a nice irony here: palettes were developed (in part) because early PC's had very limited (graphics) memory - so palettes are an anachronism in this day of 256M video cards - but an anachronism that is essential to our work.

as far as 64 bit Lazarus is concerned, i wasn't expecting it to work now, but it's clearly going to happen eventually - in contrast to Delphi 64.



cheers,



Mat
