I have only just started trying to use the Layers functionality in
Photodesk 3.14-17 on ARMX6 (5.25 + gfx:accel:) and Iyonix (5.24).
I have both the PD 3.03 Release Note and Chris Terran's 2010 PD Manual to
hand (as well as the original 1996 Spacetech manual), but cannot make just
two layers work as described.
Layer #0 is to have an 8-bit sprite and Layer #1 is to have an 8-bit
sprite. Both sprites are defined with Paint's mask 'colour', but only the
Layer #1 sprite has a transparent area.
Try as I might, no changes supposedly fixed in the receiving image either
fix on their layer, or show in the Layer thumbnails or in the Clipboard
thumbnail.
Paint describes one sprite as in Mode 28 and the second sprite as in Mode
&201680B5. DPlngScan also reports them as differing: one as Mode 28 and
the other as Type 4. Could this be relevant?
