I am trying to generate frames by using the sequencer to generate
rotation angles for an object. The rotation is around the z-axis
and works perfectly in the image window. I want to write the frames
into a MIFF format file so I use the "Save Image" dialog to:

enable Allow Rerendering
set format to MIFF
set Image Size to 800x608
set output file name to "frames"
enable Continuous Saving

When I run the sequencer I get a MIFF file containing the correct
number of frames, but when I extract them the first frame has the
size that I set and the rest have varying sizes which seem to be
automatically determined by a bounding box for the rotating object
which changes as the orientation changes. The first frame is the
only one that shows the colorbar (there are only 2 objects in the
image, one rotates).

I have tried this with YUV format as well and get the same results.

How can I get OpenDX to save the images as I see them in the image
window?

I have OpenDX 4.2 running on Win2000 with Exceed 7.0.

Thank you,
Jon.
