Hi Gregori,
If you are just saving an image without rendering it (eg - "png" without
"ray") then the raw OpenGL output is sent to the file. Meaning, if you
have the command line/menu window open in front of the graphics window,
your images will be cut off where they overlap. This might or might
not be the problem, but I've had it bite me once before so I thought I'd
get it out there.
