Re: [40d16] export local image isn't working

I tested on my window XP and i confirm that while playing in windowed mode, pressing e to "Export image" does not work at all (indeed the "Export raw info" works perfectly)

But when going fullscreen (F11), when pressing e, the .bmp is correctly created in the DF directory.
So it seems only when in windowed mode the export image does not work.

Can't say for the previous version of DF only tested on 40d16

For myself, after trying both Mayday's version and the standard version of 40d16 if the WINDOWEDX: or FULLSCREENX: for graphics or characters is under 1024 or 800 then the export image/info command does not work for me, setting the x to 1280 and it works fine.

If you look in the error log, it should say something like "Image export not possible because of zoom/window settings."
In 40d16, the window size is automatic depending on the size of your graphics/tileset, so if you use graphics that aren't 8x12, you won't be able to use export local image in windowed mode. :(

So even though these settings work perfectly well in regular 40d and display fine in 40d16, because of how the program reads grid size in 40d16 it does not allow you to export the image and information for the world you've generated?

[GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDX:800]
[GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDY:600]
[GRAPHICS_FONT:curses_square_16x16.png]
[GRAPHICS_FULLSCREENX:1024]
[GRAPHICS_FULLSCREENY:768]
[GRAPHICS_FULLFONT:curses_square_16x16.png]
[GRAPHICS_BLACK_SPACE:YES]

And yes with those settings in regular 40d the error message "Image export not possible because of zoom/window settings." does not occur. But if you use those size settings in fullscreen or windowed for 40d16 the command does not work.  So why does this occur?
