I didn't specify any compression (thus, neither LZW), but also get the same
error...

Is there any way to save tif's at the moment?
Adobe Photoshop for ex uses 'none', 'zip' or 'jpeg' as alternative
compression methods.

Anyway, if it IS possible to save an wxImage as tif at the current time
being, could someone help me out?
(and if it isn't could anybody enlighten me with a date?)

Thanks!

If you search at the archive, you can see that on 30/05 I and Robin, had
a discussion about the tif save problem. At the end, Robin say me that
it will say into the sources, but since that message, I don't see any
response.

I'm trying to make a little interface to external FreeImage dll/so with
ctypes, but I have some problems with a function (I don't are a C
programmer, so "pointers" and others mysterious words make me a bit
confusion).
If you want to help me... I'll very happy!

I thinks no.

Hi,

For me the trick was to do:

wxProgressDialog wait("Please Wait", "Saving image...", 3);
// progress bar will show one third of the way along
wait.Update(0);

wxImage img = pBmp->ConvertToImage();
img.SetOption(wxIMAGE_OPTION_COMPRESSION, COMPRESSION_NONE);
img.SaveFile(absolutePath, (wxBitmapType)imageType);

It works, but it does take several seconds... so that's why the
progress bar is there.

I've seen the thread, and started this new one to pinpoint the core problem
(the issue without the LZW part)

I'm not as experienced as a lot of others here, sorry. But I'm sure Someone
can help us out.... ?

Ahaaa, I already hoped the SetOption would turn up with a surprise.
(The should better list these options in the Reference at wxImage:: ... )

Only 1 problem: COMPRESSION_NONE is not defined, "COMPRESSION_NONE" as
string does nothing...
I don't seem to find the right value for wxIMAGE_OPTION_COMPRESSION. You
don't accidently have the proper value list?

Oh, and wx_image_option_compression is really the string "Compression"

img.SetOption("Compression", 8) should do the trick.

Sorry, Okay, I still haven't had my cup of coffee, but I actually
tried to make sure it would work, and It's SetOptionInt... anyway
here's what worked:

img = wx.EmptyImage(100,100,False)
img.SetOptionInt("Compression", 1)
img.SaveFile("/tmp/test.tif", wx.BITMAP_TYPE_TIF)

It turns out that neither compression 8 (deflate) or 6 (jpeg) is
enabled in the windows wxPython binaries either (brand new 2.6.1.0 on
XP.) For my own purposes in the project I'm doing I'm going to have
to substitute a more feature-complete version of libtiff.

(Setting False on the EmptyImage means "don't clear the image" and
shows uninitialized memory as fun patterns.)
