Re: [ferret_users] Problem in saving plot in linux-ferret f-14



Hi-
When you have an x-window on the screen and ask to save the command as a gif, the image is saved from your screen. See http://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/Ferret/documentation/users-guide/animations-gif-images/CREATING-GIF-IMAGES for more on how this works.

When you save the image, is there another window blocking part of the plot window on your screen?  What is test.gif? Is that what you got when you ran Ferret without the x-server software?

Dear Ferreters,

I have Ferret, v6.5, installed on a Linux F-14 machine [Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.35.6-45.fc14.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Oct 18 23:57:44 UTC 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux], and saving a plot directly by command "yes?frame/file=x.gif" is working correctly for me since a couple of years ago, but now it seems not working anymore. I've tried by using ferret -gif mode, it worked without opening an x-windows server, but unfortunately the plot was worst. 

Here is what I did (for instance):

   $ ferret
   yes? LET circle = ((i-20)^2 + (j-20)^2) ^ 0.5
   yes? CONTOUR/i=1:40/j=1:40 circle * exp((10-(i+j))/50)
   yes? frame/file=a.gif

and the image is attached.

Thank you so much.

Sandro Lbs,
