Description Nick Smith 2006-05-25 05:14:02 UTC 
When saving as an ICO, you should be able to choose 24-bit color as an option.

Currently there's 1, 4, 8, and 32.  32-bit functions the same, but has an alpha
channel.  24-bit doesn't have alpha channel and no transparency is used.
Comment 1 Aurimas Juška 2006-09-24 08:13:01 UTC 
I suggest to confirm this enhancement request:
* Winicon can open icon in this format
* This format is widely supported

I don't think no transparency is used. It looks like this format has standard 1-bit mask.
Comment 2 weskaggs 2006-09-24 16:13:08 UTC 
Okay, confirming.

        * plug-ins/winicon/icodialog.c
        * plug-ins/winicon/icoload.c
        * plug-ins/winicon/icosave.c: applied patches from Aurimas Juška
        that add support for saving 24 bit files and fix a bug in the
        load routines for this format (bug #352899).
