The function usually works well, as long as I don't try to export the
display of an eclipse path. There the colors run wild, at least on my
system (windows/nt).
The *.bmp file looks like a 24bit true color image so the problem is
probably not with some different palette usage.
Depending of the display settings, I get various results:
256 colors: The *.bmp matches the display (both ugly)
16bit High Color: The "partial" display flips over from light green
to
dark blue, halfway to the central line.
32bit True Color: just a few greys, much of the colored objects
completely missing.
I have no 15bit or 24bit modes to try, maybe the work better.
I still use the "PrtScr" version to get my images
