Transparency question - EleVertyPL - 05-15-2023

I have been doing textures for minecraft, and changed the scale from 16x to 32x, and some pixels became half-transparent. I have my interpolation set to cubic and dont want to change it because it automatically makes the texture look like 32x. Is there any tool that can make them un-transparent while leaving the color unchanged? Here is what i mean:

Could you post your original 16 x 16 pix image.

In the meantime I think it might be pixel graphics with no anti-aliasing. The best way to scale is using interpolation = None That avoids adding those semi-transparent anti-aliased pixels.

However, using say cubic interpolation you can remove some of the anti-aliasing, the edge pixels using Layer -> Transparency -> Threshold Alpha and adjust the slider. Just the edge pixels those center dots remain.

The second option worked perfectly, thank you! I can now make textures more efficiently.
