More Imagedata Issues

[Rob Cozens]

All,

I've spent a little more time this morning trying to further reduce 
the scope of my ignorance...

1.  I created a stack and imported the wininfo.gif and wininfo2.gif 
images from the Rev Image Library, and duplicated the first
     From the Message Box, "the paintCompression of image 3" puts "gif"

2. set the imageData of image 3 to the imageData of image 2
     From the Message Box, "the paintCompression of image 3" puts "png"

Why?

Rev knows the paintCompression of image 3.  When it changes image 3's 
text property based on the imageData why is it converted to png 
format instead of, in this case, gif format?
