Xnconvert - Border Action - issue

[unclearthur]

Hi. I've just upgraded to xnconvert 1.98 (Windows 10, 64 bit) and am seeing the following issue:

If I start with an image (png, gif), say 355 x 459 px.
Apply one "Border Action" to add a single frame of width = 1 pixel.
The resulting output image is 351 x 455 px with no visible border.

Using the old version of XnConvert (1.94) the produced image would have been 357 x 461 px, ie just a simple 1 px added on each side.

Basically, to add a 1 px border as previously, I have to specify a 3 px border in 1.98. This is problematic as I have a number of presets made which would have to be changed.

Is this expected behaviour ..... or am I missing something?

Also, I do not understand what the "Background" color selection inside the "Border" action is for.

Thanks for any replies,

Adding to this, I switched to the next earlier version 1.96 and it seems OK.
