Problem with saving large bitmaps

Post by DPlotAdmin »

If you attempt to save a bitmap image (whether BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG, or TIF) or copy a bitmap to the clipboard with the specified size greater than the resolution of your display, the resulting image may be clipped. This problem will be fixed in the next release of DPlot.

In the meantime you can get around this problem by forcing DPlot to use its own clipping routines rather than a Windows API function.
  • Shut down DPlot if it is running.
  • Start Notepad. Open the file %APPDATA%\DPlot\dplot.ini
  • Scroll to the end of that file and add these 2 lines:
    [Debugging]
    UseDPLOTClipping=1
  • Save the file and exit Notepad.
