Description (last modified by martinl)

Thank you so much for an amazing piece of free software.

When trying to save the display as an image in wxGUI, I get the error below. No image file gets created. I have tried to vary the contents of the display, the dimensions of the image etc. but the result is consistently the same. 

Traceback (most recent call last):

6.4.2\etc\wxpython\gui_modules\mapdisp.py", line 1159, in

Component: Default → wxGUI
Keywords: display added
Summary: d.out.file fails → Saving the display as an image in wxGUI fails

If I remember, this was fixed at some point. Can you please try to update to GRASS 6.4.3 and test there? (6.4.3 is the current stable release, if you want to test this bug also for development/svn versions such as GRASS 7 you are welcome, but the update to 6.4.3 may solve your problem.)
