Can be more specific? Do you now of any other application that has something like this? An example would be ShowImage. The short of it is, things like reading/saving file formats are abstracted out into an addon-based kit of their own (src/kits/translation). Apps can thus iterate through the roster of available formats, and use any of those to save to the appropriate format without having to reimplement those themselves. Those translator add-ons in turn can export configuration views which let you fine tune how they save (i.e. the one for JPEG allows adjusting the level of compression and a few other things). The translation kit portion of http://www.haiku- os.org/legacy-docs/bebook/ should answer any questions you have on the details of using those add-ons/retrieving the configuration view from them. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/3813#comment:8> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
