avoid the grey of an img with an invalid filename

[jmburnod]

Hi All,

I have an img with a valid filename
I set the filename of this img to an invalid filename, it becomes grey
I set the filename of this img to empty, it remains grey
I expect it becomes white

Is there a way to avoid the grey ?

Best regards

Jean-Marc-

I'm going to make a guess here: you want the image to be white in order to blend in with a white background as if there were no image present. If that is the case, when you sent the filename to empty, why not just hide the image? And show it again when you set the filename to an existing file?

Hi Mark,

nevertheless I consider this a BUG!

The images should become transparent again after setting the filename to empty again, but it doesn't!
I think the image should NOT turn grey at all after setting an invalid filename!
And I already reported this at least 6 years ago.


@Jean-Marc,

in your case you should check "the result" immediately after setting the filename and hide the image if the result is not empty!

Hi Mark and Klaus,
Thank for reply

Ok. I'll do that

Klaus-

I agree, but the question was not "is this a bug?" but "how do I do this?"
