SYMPTOMS
If you import a GIF image (or other bitmap-type graphic) and rotate it, it may appear with a hazing effect and/or with bands that appear to break up the image.

This effect disappears if you change the rotation angle slightly or if you change the zoom percentage.

This effect occurs only if you are using a color palette of 15-bit (32,768), 16-bit (65,536), or 24-bit (16.7 million) colors. If you are using a 256-color color palette, this effect does not occur.



RESOLUTION
This is a display problem only. Rotated graphics that display this symptom usually print correctly and export correctly as part of a Web page.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
