As the size of the image is not known in advance it seems its up to the app per http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qml-qtquick-image.html
Note: Images are often the greatest user of memory in QML user interfaces. It is recommended that images which do not form part of the user interface have their size bounded via the sourceSize property. This is especially important for content that is loaded from external sources or provided by the user. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1373462 Title: [background] Preview/Background is black for some images To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/libqtelegram/+bug/1373462/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
