Charlie, Take a look at the latest executable in the experimental directory. When I save a 1200x900 virtual image (starting from 800x600) the restored image comes back okay, but into 640x480. This seems to be different from what it did before. Also, 1600x1200 images try to restore to 1280x1024. Since my screen can't handle this, I am unable to restore them. I seem to recall being able to do this at one time. Would you please take a look at loadfdos.c and see if you can spot what I broke. Thanks. Jonathan

i saw nothing bad in loadfdos.c for me, it works all fine! when restoring, entries with a shortcut assigned come at the top even if they don't fit the image being restored.. i didn't cause this (like SF9 - 1280x1024) also, when restoring, take care of the comment, like: !VIRTUAL at 640 x 480 - that is the real resolution, try to find another resized mode.. i have another problem: when i insert a line into fractint.cfg to have a virtual mode kept, and those virtual dimensions have aspect different from 0.75 (like 2048x786), then selecting this mode at the <DEL> screen, the default mandelbrot has wrong aspect ratio (it's stretched horizontaly) i did many attempts to fix this (the inital aspect) but always failed.. charlie ______________________________________________________________________ Reklama: Zahraj si online hry a vyhraj Nokia 3650 a dalších 99 cen. http://ad2.seznam.cz/redir.cgi?instance=43806%26url=http://www.razdva.cz/~se...

It was broken because I had moved that section of code. I put it back where you had originally had it, and now it works fine.
i have another problem: when i insert a line into fractint.cfg to have a virtual mode kept, and those virtual dimensions have aspect different from 0.75 (like 2048x786), then selecting this mode at the <DEL> screen, the default mandelbrot has wrong aspect ratio (it's stretched horizontaly)
i did many attempts to fix this (the inital aspect) but always failed..
What values are you using for ax and bx? Send me the line you've added to fractint.cfg. What happens when you try the same thing with a disk video mode? Jonathan

When I try this, I get exactly what I would expect. The image is the same as if you started with 1024x768 and change it on the <v> screen to 2048x768. What are you expecting the image to look like? Jonathan

i thought it should change the aspect ratio.. (like if it was set to 0) but now i see it should behave the way the others do (diskvideo and viewwindow) since setting it manually to 0 fixes the image, i have no more complaints.. ..besides this: fractint still allows cheating.. follow: 1. start fractint 2. hit <DEL>, find a diskvideo mode (eg. 800x600x256), select it (<ENTER>) - "undersize": 3. hit <DEL> again, find screen mode 320x200x256, DON'T select it, but <ESC> 4. hit <v>, enter virtual x=160, y=100, <ENTER> - or oversize: 3. hit <DEL> again, find a VESA mode (eg. 640x480x256), DON'T select it, but <ESC> 4. hit <v>, enter virtual x=1280, y=960, <ENTER> the former should fill only upper-left quarter, the latter will start virtual screen, or mess the screen overwriting itself.. generaly, after escaping <DEL> screen, the <TAB> screen shows not the activated mode, but the mode the cursor was at before <ESC>..! but the <v> screen still thinks it's a diskvideo (if it has been activated before), so it let's you change virtual x/y.. this bug was nice before the virtual screens were in, but now it has no use.. :o) charlie ______________________________________________________________________ Reklama: Na Internet teď může mít díky Oskarovi přístup úplně každý.
