Designer Pro X pastes images as jpeg?

[Acorn]

Hi Soeno

I believe this was an intended change made in version 12 and can be controlled by the following registry key

key name: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Xara\XtremePro x64\16\Options\Filters ( alter the version number to match your version)
Value name: OptimiseJpegFromPng

With the program closes, right click on the value name and select modify. Change the value data from 1 to 0 and click on OK.

Bhavesh, just tried the Registry change - no difference to v16 action, still a rectangular blob with no transparency.

Why ever "optimise" a PNG that may have transparency into a JPEG with none?
