OctaneRender® 1.025 beta2.58 test release [obsolete]

I've done some more testing.
Results:

Libra office draw and write. Both paste in correctly , however alpha channel pastes in as black rather than clear.With Photoshop elements again, Alpha channel pastes in as black rather than clear.

I suspect therefore, apart from the alpha Channel problem and according to Matej's results above, that this might be a Linux system problem rather than a windows problem.

Well, I have tested again the Clipboard Copy/Paste feature, and it works fine in Gimp 2.6, Photoshop Elements (a very old version), and Dogwaffle Pro 5.1 (painting program). I had done Ctrl+C over the icon instead of clicking on it ! Stupid me !

Thanx for this release, the new features are very welcome.

No crashes so far.

Unfortunately, the alpha transparency and parameter vanishing bugs mentioned here...

... are still not fixed.

Images with transparency is a non-standard clipboard format on windows. Photoshop doesn't support pasting images with transparency from other applications, GIMP and Microsoft Office do.

I tested on Linux (CentOS 5.5 64-bit) and pasting works in GIMP (including transparency) and with OpenOffice (without transparency).

I tested copying into Gimp from the clipboard and it worked fine. This is on Fedora 15. Matej when was the last time you re-booted? Sometimes some of the desktop services die or get killed. At least I have seen this happen with Gnome on Fedora. You could try restarting X or logout and login again, or reboot and see if that helps.

Hm, I booted yesterday and even after a logout it still doesn't work. Apparently it works for all of you, so it must be my system. I can live without this functionality, so no worries.
