Re: [l2h] In segmentation parts, how to create .png images or else BUT NOT .gif

[Jacques B. Siboni]

By writing down a problem it helps to solve it!

I believe I have solved the problem by adding the ENV parameter:

$IMAGE_TYPE = 'PNG';

With this I can compile the slave without recompiling the master.

All the best
