If you press the command button "Whole.v" on the upper right of the window or the [G] key, you can check the whole image of the map or other data.
You can also output map image as PNG format image in this item by selecting whole range or specified range.
After displaying the overall image of each item, press the "Back to Select" button displayed in the upper right of the window or press the [Enter] key to return to the top screen of "Check each whole view".
The blue letters displayed to the right of the buttons indicate the key assignments for each command.
(Mainly assigned to [Z] to [M] on the bottom of the main keyboard.)
Press the "Abort" button or the [Enter] key to abort this operation and return to the edit screen.
[Whole view of map 1]
You can display the whole image of map 1 by selecting "Check whole of map [1]" on the "Check each whole view" command screen.
Map's whole view will be displayed on the entire edit screen, and its scale rate will be changed depending to their map's width and height.
[Whole view of map 2]
Basically it's the same as the above "Whole view of map 1", and this is the operation for map 2 side.
If you select "Check specified range" on the "Check each whole view" command screen, you can display the whole view of specified range.
For this operation, itfs necessary to set the specified range in advance in "7-9-1. Specify or cancel the range" described later.
(This command can't be operated if the specified range isn't set.)
If you select "Check copy data" on the "Check each whole view" command screen, you can display the whole view of obtained (copied) data in "7-9-2. Copy specified range data" described later.
Please use it to check what kind of copy data you currently obtained.
(If there is no copy data, this command can't be operated.)
If you select "Output as PNG image" on the "Check each whole view" command screen, you can output the whole image of the map currently being edited as a PNG format image.
When outputting an PNG image, select one of the following 6 levels for its size.
The size of the output map image (the number of pixels) is basically calculated by the following formula.
(same for height)
Then, the calculated size value described above will be resized according to one of the 6 sizes described before as for the maximum width (and height), and the objective PNG image will be outputted.
For example, if the map width and height are "100x100" and the size of the chip used is "64x64 pix", the output basic pixel size will be "6400x6400" pixels.
And if you select "640 pix" as output size for this size, it will be scaled to 1/10 and will be output.
Also, if you select "3840pix", it will be output with a scale of 0.6 = 6/10.
The longer of the width and height is adopted as the base length of the scale rate.
For example, if the above map size is "100x50" and "640pix" is selected, the output size will be "640x320" pixels.
(Similarly, if the map size is "50x100", the output size will be "320x640" pixels.)
On the other hand, if the number of basic pixels of the map is smaller than the 6 specified sizes, it will be output with the original size by the specified size range.
(For example, if you select "1920pix" in spite of the actual output size is "1280x640" pixels, it will be output by the original size of "1280x640" pixels.)
Incidentally, when the overlaid display mode has been set to "ON" in "7-1-4. Switch overlay display mode of maps", maps 1 and 2 will be overlaid and combined to output an image.
(And its composite concentration value conforms to the concentration value set in "7-1-9. Change display brightness of overlaid maps".)
For example, if you want to create a strategy map for a certain
game with this editor,
It's possible to output the objective PNG image by the above method, I guess.
The operation of the outputted PNG image file to be saved is the same as when saving a normal file in Windows, a dialog is displayed, and the procedure is to select a file with the same name and overwrite it, or enter a new file name and save it.
[Whole map image output]
If you select "Whole" at the "Output as PNG image" item, the whole view of map will be output as a PNG image.
[Output with specified range]
If you select "Range" at the "Output as PNG image" item, the limited range map image will be outputted with the range which has been specified in advance.
Please use it when you want to output a map image of a limited range.
(This command can't be operated if the specified range isn't set.)
If you want to modify the input value, press "Reinput" button or the [X] key.
Pressing the "Redo" button or the [C] key returns to the top screen of this command screen.
Press the "Abort" button or the [Enter] key to abort this operation and return to the edit screen.
