Hi all. I've just managed to persuade POV to compile under Borland's
wonderful C++ Builder, and thought I'd have a go at making a GUI
extension. I can get the example to compile alright so no problem there,
but the functions in the defined interface seem a bit limited unless I'm
missing something obvious. What I would like to do is find out what
resolution the currently rendering image is being rendered at eg
640x480, 800x600 etc. All I can think of to do at the moment is check
(in order) the main INI file, the secondary INI file and the command
line, and use the last settings found for Width and Height. Is there an
easier way to do this? I'm surprised this info isn't in the external
variables block, or a parameter of the StartRendering event, so I hope
I'm just overlooking it.

Hope someone can help.

Andrew
