Call to drawBitmap2 causes exception on FR165 and FR165m

When calling drawBitmap2 on fr165 and fr165m, an Exception: Source must be native color format

occurs in the simulator, SDK 7.4.3. The image is png format. Specifying packingFormat as png or not specifying (default) gives the same result.

I am trying to use transform and tintColor options.

Behavior on an actual device is unknown.

Yes that appears to work. But no manual palette was specified. like this:

<bitmap id="bz1" filename="bz1.png" packingFormat="png" automaticPalette="false"/>

So what is going on there?

On the FR255s I have the similar problem, but to get it to work on the FR255s I need to use:

<bitmap id="bz1" filename="bz1.png" packingFormat="png" >

I previously specified automaticPalette="false" with a manual palette, and it didn't work

I have just hit this too, and your suggestion worked.

Something is wrong though since we should not hit a crash and an undocumented exception without this. But at least I have a solution.

In your resource file where you declare your bitmap can you try adding automaticPalette="false" as one of the properties of the bitmap and see if that resolves the problem?

Maybe including your PNG, the drawable xml and the code to draw it would be useful
