PIC do save the mode format (and picture size too), but as far as I know, SCR are just SBYTES of the screen (raw format). Which means that not only you you need the same mode, but also the same sizes! (That's was no problem with old QL: only either 512x256x4 or 256x256x8+, and mode 8 was rarely used anyway! and only one organisation of the memory too) -- Grimbert J�r�me
