Hi, anything bigger than 8k x 8k doesn't work. Is this normal? Thanks, Jim. |

I think it's determined by hardware and drivers. Here is some info for D3D9 and OpenGL. http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/post.php?topic=102141&post=1218143 |

Limits vary based on your hardware -- on older videocards with less video ram, you may be restricted to 4096x4096, 2048x2048 or even 1024x1024. (Depending on what you're doing: pixmaps (which reside in normal computer RAM) may possibly allow larger sizes than the videocard is capable of drawing, although usefulness may be limited) |

For casual markets I havent gone over 2048x2048 and havent had an issue (that I know about)... |

I once ran into a case where the card wouldn't render an image over 512x512. It was a very old system though. |
