Hey,

I have a custom Perspective component and after adding thumbnail images to my palette entries, I'm getting the following error in the designer:

```python
Graphics2D from BufferedImage lacks BUFFERED_IMAGE hint

```

The thumbnails load and look correct, but the logs are very noisy 🤷‍♂️.

Here's how I'm reading my images:

```python
ImageIO.read(Components::class.java.getResource(path))

```

Any advice?

Something is drawing into these images after you read them. Figure out what that is.

It actually wasn't the thumbnail that was causing the errors, it was the `InteractiveSvgIcon`.  
After much trial and error, removing the opacity tags from my SVGs made the problem go away 🤷‍♂️.

This SVG causes errors:
