I seem to recall this problem being discussed before but of course I wasn't paying attention. I have finally got around to upgrading IP, I am now running Version 9 Revision 01. The problem is my ARexx exec is no longer working. It loads in a GIF and renders it into HAM-E format. The render command is returning immediately with a return code of 0, it is not actually doing anything. This is the command: RENDER 1 320 480 2 0 filename 256 It used to work, any ideas? I did look in the IP addendum but could not see any changes to the render command format. Thanks, -=Martin=- – via Whap!

The render command was changed; you'll find the changes listed towards the end of the document, along with the rest of the ARexx command changes. –Ben

Ben: You're refering the the IA.LZH file in the library right. I read the section describing the changes to the render command, you added some additional modes etc., but I can't see any fundamental changes in the command syntax. The command is documented as: render <lace> <width> <height> <mode> <usepalette> <name> [numcolors] My command is: render 1 320 480 2 0 filename I'm sure it's something stupid but what am I missing? -=Martin=- – via Whap!

Um…. do you have "entire" in there before you use it? You have to tell it what you want to render. –Ben

Ben: Yes I do have entire immediately before the render. -=Martin=- – via Whap!
