I have a 512x240 bmp file which I converted using timutil.
When I use timv to display the image on the yaroze, the image is clipped
and is not shown as the full image. If I scale the bmp file down to
256x240 and convert that to a tim file, then all of the image is shown.

Does the timview program have a problem with setting the correct
resolution large enough for the image? Or does it use a fixed
resolution? The documentation was totally uninforming.

Would it be possible to get the source to timview? This would make an
excellent demo program. I have gone through the instructions given on
one of the newsgroups here on how to display a static background using a
tim file, but the method does not work for me, and it is missing some
other details.

Thanks
