You're absolutely right about *unintentional* withdrawal of facts in my original message, but no, I'm not using Remote Desktop. However, my XP SP3 has 16-bit colors and apparently 8.5.7 can't display those photos correctly in this case either. Most probable reason why the issue was first discovered in Remote Desktop is because most of RDP sessions are limited to 16-bit colors. > If so, this requires an updated Tk and not a patch to gitk - > tk 8.5.8 should be ok if this is the problem. Unfortunately, the situation is improved with 8.5.8, but definitely not resolved (tested on msysGit devel branch). The sequence image create photo && wm iconphoto on 16-bit displays in XP SP3 renders the background black, not transparent. The fact that I'm using Classic color schema may play some role too. I'd speculate that 8.5.8 on Windows 7 (admittedly, it's much harder to switch to 16-bit colors there) may have exactly the same issue, given that 8.5.7 has exactly the same symptoms. Is there a way to replace the "simplistic" if {$::tcl_platform(platform) eq {windows}} with something more elaborate that takes into account 16-bit colors? -- Kirill. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
