Perplexing issue with image only shown in black and white!

Question

I'm trying to show a splash screen with a simple bitmap view and running it in the RGBA8888 mode, I'm only seeing the image being shown in black and white. I'm trying the example from the ScreenSaver example. I can't figure out why this is happening and can't see any differences between the RBA8888 profile I have an the eval version example is using. Please help!

Hi!

Can you please double-check the attribute PlatformPackage within the used profile - maybe this is set to LumA44, which is a color format that supports only gray values (4 bit gray and 4 bit alpha).

Best regards,

Manfred.

Hello Manfred, no I don't have it set to grayscale. The weird thing is I can see colors from other simpler pngs (not photos) show up but photos seem to show up in black and white. Please see pictures of my settings below. Thank you!

Never mind Manfred. All of a sudden it works fine now. It's weird, maybe it needed to be restarted for some reason. Appreciate your prompt help as always though!
