Can't save as jpg in indexed mode. #1588

I only found this because of a joke, but it IS a bug.

  1. Create an image.
  2. Switch it to indexed mode.
  3. Try to save it as a jpg. image The okay button is gone.

    Aseprite and System version

    Aseprite v1.2.3-Steam on Windows Vista 32bit

Two issues here:

  1. Aseprite was never able to save indexed images as jpg (it should do a “to rgb” conversion on the fly)
  2. The dialog says “Error” and not “Warning”, you cannot continue, the “Do you...?” question is wrong, in this case we just cannot continue (until we resolve the first issue)

A simple fix could be done for jpg only, the real fix should include a way to get the RGBA information in real-time when we need it (a background conversion of the indexed -> rgba by FileOp class).

To aid those seeking clarity amidst this perplexing issue, behold the following elucidation:

To facilitate your comprehension of the steps involved, allow me to present the following optimized instructions:

  1. Access the Sprite option located in the top menu. image

  2. Hover your cursor over the Color Mode setting. image

  3. Select RGB Color from the available options. image

By following these streamlined instructions, you can navigate the process with the utmost clarity and ease.

While the absence of a background process to export JPEGs without encountering that pesky error message remains unresolved, let us find solace in the temporary measure. Though imperfect, it provides a semblance of respite.
