polaroid effect, shadow updates

Post by jaano »

Hi all
v6.3.3
I tried out the polaroid effect now, it seems, the effect doesn't like white border:

Code: Select all

image.border!(18, 18, "#f0f0ff")
I mean, that's ok to see the difference on white background, but it really looks bad, if the background is some color and the polariod is not white :)
I think, the variable is called undercolor, is it changeable?

Anthony, you did a version update on your server, right?
Because look at that:

If I execute your code for it on the Usage/thumbnails/"Polaroid-like Thumbnails" first example, I get the same result, but I know, just some few days ago, it showed the shadow correctly.

Best regards

Opps yes I see you have definatally found some bug.

I'll just re-install the latest beta and re-generate examples to verify, then report a bug if still present.

My current installed version is being used for development of various code optimization and new -layers methods at the moment, so it will take little while.
