Subject: MI 6.0 FIX for Save Window As> Advanced>
For those of you that have run across this problem in MI 6.0, or may in the
future...
In maps that use regions with a transparent fill pattern you are advised to
UNCHECK ALL of the boxes in the "Save Window As>, Advanced>" options dialog box
and to select the Dither Method of Halftone in its pulldown menu. This will
ensure that your fill patterns for transparent regions will not become altered
in the conversion. I've only tried this on Bitmaps and Jpegs. I don't know
about other file type conversions.
Regards,

Subject: MI Save Window As> Advanced>
I have a map in the Layout Window that I need to have reproduced into Lotus
Notes. With MI 4.5 and 5.0 all I had to do was "Save Window As" Bitmap then
"Import" into Lotus Notes. It was quick, easy and gave good results on
transparent layers. I have discovered that MI 6.0 is much more complicated in
completing this process. If I understand the User's Guide correctly, when
importing maps with transparent layers you must use the Advanced options. My
imported image continually shows large rectangle (much like low resolution
graphics) where I have transparent layers. Instead of large rectangles I should
see tiny little dots. At least that is what was produced in 4.5 & 5.0. Of
course the user's guide doesn't provide good explanations on these options. Has
anybody run into this problem? What was your fix?
