There are still things that are not properly implemented in cybergraphics.library or the drivers yet like a really working support for the alpha channel. At the moment *** I still need to read, modify, write RGB values instead of just writing ARGB or RGBA. Cybergraphics pretends to support the alpha channel, but I've never seen that it works on OS 3.x. The alpha channel is also not really supported by (most/all ?) picture datatypes.

And then, if this problem should finally get fixed, you need to update all those programs that wanted to use these missing features in the past but couldn't do it.

*** Or are there already any improvements for alpha channel support in OS 3.1.4 or P96 v2.2 ?
