Image Manipulator Object Erode + Dilate bugs.

[Tiles]

The Erode and Dilate effects in the Image Manipulator Object fails to work proper. Bad karma, i need them.

The erode effect causes black bars. Here a shot with 10 times erode applied:


The dilate effect causes another kind of a bar:



The file to reproduce is attached. 118 kb. Maybe it is something with my code. Start app and click at the erode button. Then click at the dilate button.

Anyone an idea how i can erode and dilate in Overlay directly without the Image Manipulator?

i cant reproduce the dilate bug in my app - but the erode is a def bug. it seems to be how the engine work (like a shadow) but you would have to contact the creator!

Strange that you cannot reproduce the dilate bug. As you can see at the screenshot it happens here. But thanks for confirming the Erode bug

Hmm, is Herb still around? His page that is mentioned in the extensions is gone.

By the way, what exactly does the calculation do to achieve erode and dilate? Maybe i can achieve the same result with a fastloop. I really need erode and dilate.

Sometimes the easiest solution is the best. Erode and Dilate makes a one pixel border. So i paste the image into another overlay which is two pixels wider, perform my erode and dilate there, and paste the result back into the first overlay while cutting away the one pixel border. Problem solved. Phew
