Err Cannot clone a color image to black and white image

Post by davidh »

1. Open two images A and B
2. Add to both Monochrome but tint them with some color in the Tint tab.
3. Add to the B tree Clone transformation, load the Monochrome from the tree A as an auxiliary image and do some minimum random cloning.
4. Reopen Monochrome in tree A and reset the Tint to make it black and white.
5. Do the same with Monochrome in tree B.
6. Reopen Monochrome in tree A and change Tint back to some color -> You are warned that you Cannot clone a color image to black and white image. However the message window cannot be closed. You neeed to kill PWP.

Even successful closing the message will probably leave you in a trap.
Some implicit conversion will solve it?

Fixed for next release -- I removed the limitation of not being able to clone color over black and white.
