Maybe the wrong thing is related on the aspect ratio.

Try  using v1.55, in full screen, using a 4k image, resolution: 3840x2160, and let me know if error still happens.

I mean, try to make the aspect ratio divisible by your resolution 1920x1080.

I just read the method you wrote. You mean it's okay if you work with the image within the screen's maximum resolution, right? Let's try it.

I've tried the way you did. I think I found the exact problem! I found a problem using dithering the entire 1920x1080 image! I post the results for you to see. One image is Pixelate WH=2,2, and one image is WH=8,8.The topmost dithering is not applied.

In v158 version, I hope you can fix the problem that fullscreen is not displayed properly by pressing F. It works fine in v155! The fullscreen function is very convenient.

Well, just uploaded a new version with a quick fix for the dithering. 

To fix the full screen issue. On .exe right button and set properties, and in compatibility settings set: Windows 7. It shoud fix the F problem.

Let me know please.

Ok I will test it.
And, I desperately want the alpha channel insertion function to be included in your program even when using the palette. If you find it difficult to make this feature, I'm willing to help you out for free at no cost. If you want, feel free to reply to me in comments.

I tried turning on the fullscreen by pressing F in admin mode after setting it to Windows 7 compatibility. It doesn't work normally.


%%NOTE: I uploaded the Fullscreen ScreenShot
And I tried reducing the image size to 1920x1080 again. The problem you were talking about has been resolved, but there is a strange vertical line at the bottom. This phenomenon is the same for 2x2,8x8.


Dithering is not generated properly in full screen mode. 


The last image is a phenomenon caused when stored in Fullscreenmode.

If you fix the strange vertical stripes again, I think I can use it without any problems!
%%NOTE:All of this was tested with the v157 hotfix.

Its weird, the full screen works perfect now in my side.

And if the fullscreen not works correctly then the dither not will be ok and that happens.

Maybe the problem after all is how windows manages the fullscreen. Have you tried with compatibility mode W8? No idea just to try.

Although it doesn't work on fullscreen, everything works fine except for the problem of strange vertical lines at the top 5 spaces from the bottom. If you fix that problem, I think I can use it without problem.
Let's test again with Windows 8 compatibility.

I have finished testing on all parts. I have found that Windows 7 mode and Windows 8 mode do not work equally well, and weird patterns can be created during the resolution adjustment process. The problem with the fullscreen was an issue with this issue. Report errors.

I tried running v157 on my other windows 7 computer, but the full screen didn't work. This is a computer with a 4K monitor.
This computer does not have an internet connection.

I am very sorry to ask you too. Fixing the code is hard for me too. Just, I'm making a game. I want to let you know that the pixatool you made is saved me. Had it not been for the bug, I wouldn't bother you. Sorry.
