PUB97: Rotated GIFs May Look Hazy (155089)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q155089 SYMPTOMS
If you import a GIF image (or other bitmap-type graphic) and rotate it,
it may appear with a hazing effect and/or with bands that appear to
break up the image.
This effect disappears if you change the rotation angle slightly
or if you change the zoom percentage.
This effect occurs only if you are running a display setting of 15-bit
(32,768), 16-bit (65,536) or 24-bit (16.7 million) colors. If you are
using a 256-color display setting, it does not occur.
RESOLUTION
This is a display problem only. Rotated graphics that display this
system usually print correctly and export correctly as part of
a Web page.
STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information
here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
