I had a problem wrapping an bitmap onto an Imagine object. The bit-map was a DPaint file of dimensions 1200 x 1700 ( x 2 colors). At the rendering stage I was told there was "Not enough RAM" for the brush. I resized the brush in DPaint to half to 618 x 876 and everything rendered fine. But I really wanted the higher resolution that the larger bitmap gave me. I have 7 Megabytes of RAM. Other programs have no problem displaying the larger bitmap, so why can't Imagine deal with it? It is only a 36 K file. How large can a brush be? *********** I posted this message here once before, addressed to Impulse. It was marked as received but I got no reply. I emailed the question to Impulse. Steve Gillmor of Impulse replied, saying to call Impulse with the question, to get on the Imagine mailing list (?) or to "ask one of the experts there." Can anyone help me? This is an important question for me! And, what is the Imagine mailing list? – Roger
