Photo rendition question

05 Nov 2023, 11:20

edit: Looks like this got put in V2 AHK ask for help.
It belongs in Version 1 ask for help.

Since I move to Win10, Photo rendition via GUI, ADD, PICTURE has a problem.
However, this is a just a question, since the problem may not be AHK.

When I use a HIGH CONTRAST theme, some (usually not all) solid black areas of a picture are sometimes rendered as the selected BACKGROUND COLOR for that theme.

What windows utililty (I assume it is a windows utility) is responsible for rendering a photo via GUI, ADD, PICTURE?

It is possible that this is related to AHK, since this mis-rendering of the picture only occurs with GUI, ADD, PICTURE--- not with Irfanview, VLC video rendition, PAINT 3D, Windows PHOTOS app, or SNIP & SKETCH.

Although I do not have an answer, if you want some responses from readers, my advice is to post both your script and your image file. The goal is to enable the forum reader to run a script that demonstrates the problem that you are experiencing.
