Comment(by martinl): Replying to [comment:6 neteler]: > > This might be something different but probably related. Call of `d.rast` when `d.mon wx0` is active causes creation of `map.png` in the current directory: > > I observe this for a long time already but until recently I wasn't able to find a cause. > > I tried as well - must be display driver related of course. A rather annoying problem... related to this issue something changed in display architecture (probably Glynn will know more), now you don't need to start any monitor to render data {{{ d.mon -p No monitor selected d.vect streams --v Using display driver <cairo>... cairo: collecting to file 'map.png' cairo: image size 640x480 Plotting... 8554 lines plotted d.vect complete. }}} I would see this behaviour as misleading from the user point of view. In GRASS 7.0: {{{ d.mon -p No monitor selected d.vect streams ERROR: No graphics device selected. Use d.mon to select graphics device. }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/2509#comment:9> GRASS GIS <http://grass.osgeo.org> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list grass-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
