Make sure the <strong>NVIZ</strong> viewer is on top of all other windows in the current workspace. If any windows cover the <strong>NVIZ</strong> viewer, they appear as part of the saved image. With the exception of the <strong>Max. Resolution PPM</strong>, the image has the same dimensions as the <strong>NVIZ</strong> viewer. </p> <BR><BR> <DL><DD> <img src="nvimg/panel/image_dump.gif" alt="Image Dump" width="302" height="323"> </DD></DL> <BR><BR> <dl> <dt><strong>IRIS RGB Image</strong></dt> <dd>Saves the scene to an Iris RGB image file. <br><br></dd> <dt><strong>PPM Image</strong></dt> <dd>Saves the scene to a PPM image file.

The oversized image renders as a series of tiles that are automatically assembled by the program <em><strong>pnmcat</strong> </em>. If <em><strong>pnmcat</strong></em> is not available, you need to manually assemble the tiles with another graphics program. The aspect ratio of the oversized image matches the aspect ratio of the original <strong>NVIZ</strong> viewer. <br><br></dd> </dl> </body> </html>
