PNG_driver: boundary at right side is one Pixel off

[schulzea]

I want to export an image with the PNG driver, but there seems to be a problem. Always I get a vertical line with 1 Pixel width. I use the following configuration for the export:

export GRASS_WIDTH=317

export GRASS_HEIGHT=317

export GRASS_PNGFILE=$GISDBASE/tester.png

export GRASS_TRANSPARENT=TRUE

export GRASS_TRUECOLOR=TRUE

d.mon start=PNG

d.rast map=tester

d.mon stop=PNG

r.info for this raster shows col=317 and row=317

When I use r.out.pgn everything is fine. I get an image (317x317) without this vertical line. But I need the transparence.

I use grass 6.2.2 under Ubuntu. Is an error of myself or a bug?

Seems to be related to #72 (PNG driver: boundary rendering is off by one pixel)

d.out.file is another method to test. All d.out.file and d.out.png do is setup and run the PNG driver for you.

you could try setting: export GRASS_TRANSPARENT=TRUE

before running d.out.png if you want it to have transparency.

I use grass 6.2.2 under Ubuntu.

can you test to see if it is still there in 6.3.0?

well, I test it with version 6.3.0. The same result. And I tried d.out.file and d.out.png. Without success. And both use the PNG-Driver. I'm right?

It seems to be a problem with the PNG-driver. The strange is, that no data is lost. But I get an additional vertical line of one pixel at the right side of the image. But the dimension of my result image is still 317x 317.

I don't understand this.
