Visual Q 0.5.6 English Version

[Jon_J]

I searched on subjects pertaining to Visual Q, and didn't find anything on this subject.
When I rotate a screenshot.bmp in Visual Q, it needs to be saved.
When saving the file to *.bmp format, there is a dialog that comes up that accepts quality and reducing settings.
Well, it's in a foreign language.. It doesn't look like kanji. I have no language skills except for English.
Can anyone tell what this is, from the screenshot posted here?

I would like to know what these settings do, but I cannot tell what they mean.
Thank you,
Jon

Actually, it is Japanese kanjis, but since you have Cacko installed which by default removes all japanese support, it cannot display the kanjis.

So does that mean the binary needs to be hacked in a hex editor to translate the kanji to english?
Another question. It says English version on the download site. (I don't remember where  the site is now).
Did the person who translated this program not finish all the dialogs?
About info in attachment.
BTW, the site shown in the about dialog is a dead link.
Thank you,

yep, needs binary hacking since text is embedded in the binary. yeah, i got the "english" version too, but it still displays some menus in japanese.

for the screen you selected, the options are:

RGB channel: closest dither, pattern dither, none
Alpha channel: closest dither, pattern dither, none
Palette: detailed colour analysis, approximate nearest colour

Thank you meanie for the translations.
I understand that the first tab is for Lossy compression, such as *.jpg
It has a scale which is adjustable when saving as a .jpg (0% - 100%)
The dropdown has 3 selections:
1. (1bit) (does this equal 16 color palatte?)
2. 256?? (8bit) (I'm pretty sure this equals 256 color, 8bits)
3. Not sure what this means, I'm hoping 16 or 24 bit (65,000 or 16 million colors)

I haven't used the Transparent tab yet. I need the correct graphics file format to use that feature.

Can anyone post the visual q binaries? The links are broken to the developer's site. Thanks.
