TkPNG is an open source binary package that adds PNG photo image support to
|
|
Tcl/Tk. Although other extensions such as Img also add support for PNG images,
|
|
this package was designed to be lightweight, not depending on libpng nor
|
|
implementing other image formats, and suitable for inclusion in the Tk core. Tk
|
|
does not currently have native support for any image formats that allow for
|
|
alpha (partial-transparency) channels, although it does have support for alpha
|
|
blending internally. Using alpha channels for smooth blending and anti-aliasing
|
|
is a great way to improve the appearance of GUI applications built with Tcl/Tk,
|
|
especially when combined with Tile.
