The Save Window As dialog box lets you capture the active window and save it as a supported image format. You can then use the exported file with other applications.
To open this dialog box, on the HOME tab, in the Output group, click Save Image.

- Browser window
- Map window
- Layout window
- Layout window

- Legend Designer window (version 11.5 and later)
Only these formats are supported by the Legend Designer window:
- Window Bitmap (*.bmp)
- JPEG File Interchange Format (*.jpg)
- Portable Network Graphics Format (*.png)
- Tagged image File Format (*.tif)
- TIFF CMYK (*.tif)
- TIFF CCITT Group 4 (*.tif)
- TIFF LZW (*.tif)

Image Size
Same as Window
The default Width and Height of the image are automatically displayed. When you choose this setting, the image is saved with the default dimensions.
Custom Size
When you want to make the image larger or smaller, scale the image by either entering the width or height or resize the window manually. When you change either the height or the width, MapInfo Pro changes the other dimension to preserve the image's proportions.
Width/pixels
Designate width in pixels. If you enter invalid (out of range) values for height/width in pixels, an error will occur producing an infinite loop.
Height/pixels
Designate height in pixels.
Resolution
Designate resolution in DPI (dots per inch).
