GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 309829
Off by one error (width) when saving .ico files
Last modified: 2009-01-01 20:09:51 UTC
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu (breezy up to date 2005-07-08) When I try to save an image which is 256 pixels wide as an .ico file I get an error message telling me I .ico files can be at most 256x256. Saving an image which is 256 pixels high is no problem. Sounds like a misplaced </<= to me.
The message says "Windows icons cannot be higher or wider than 255 pixels.". What's your point?
It ended up being a translation error (which combined with me confusing canvas size and layer size lead me to suspect a bug). I checked and this has not changed in gimp-2.3.2. (Does this need to be sent somewhere else or does it reach the translation team regardless?) po-plug-ins/sv.po #: plug-ins/winicon/icosave.c:940 msgid "Windows icons cannot be higher or wider than 255 pixels." msgstr "Windows-ikoner kan inte vara högre eööer bredare än 256 bildpunkter." which should read msgstr "Windows-ikoner kan inte vara högre eller bredare än 255 bildpunkter."
Reassigning to product l10n then.
Janne, can you have a look at this?
This has become obsolete by changes in GIMP. The message has changed for GIMP 2.6.
