Description Ghislain GIRARDOT 2015-11-03 13:47:44 UTC
If you export a tga file with Krita, no matter what the image is (could be a 100% black image with no transparency at all, 8bits, 16bits, with layers or no layers), and if you open it in Krita, it is half transparent.

But, if you open this exact same tga file in any other application, it is just fine. Gimp opens it as it is, without any transparency.

Also, if you create an image in Gimp, export it in tga, open it in krita, it is just fine and has no transparency either.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create an image in Krita, no matter what. 100% pure black image would do the trick
2. Export in Tga
3. Open the Tga in Krita.

Actual Results:  
The opened tga is half transparent.

Expected Results:  
It shouldn't be.

The bug has been reproduced in 2.9.7 on linux as well as on windows with the lastest stable release.

Same here on Xubuntu 15.04
Also, opening in a image viewer (Ristretto) doesn't show any issue

archive with TGA file with transparency

I've tried opening TGA that has transparency (texture from 3d app - Modo 901) in Krita 2.9.9 (git a60bf1f) . Transparent areas open (and save) as black. Sample file attached.

I can't reproduce this problem on Ubuntu 14.04 with Krita 3.1.1.

I'm able to reproduce this behaviour on Ubuntu 14.04 with Krita 3.1.1 (black areas instead of transparent)

I cannot reproduce the initial report in 4.2.0, but can confirm the second report. I've edited the title to reflect the latest TGA issue, but please submit one issue per bug report going forward. Thanks!

Fix loading broken TGA files

There are TGA files in the wild that report not having alpha
channel in the flags in 32-bit mode (although they have it).

Just ignore this TGA field and read alpha channel all the time.
