[GRASS-user] Question about "Generating PNG from display" functionality

Use ps.map

You can use the new cartographic composer module from the GUI and create a ps.map script to get started. Then you can just call the script from the command line, substituting different input maps.

Greetings

I want to generate a PNG from what is being displayed in Map Display
Window (raster+vector+scale bar) but I want to generate a file in a
specific size (HxW) that is different from the one that this tool
suggests me. What happens is that the scale bar/north arrow is removed.
but when I try with the size that the tool suggests me it is plotted
with the scalebar/northarrow

Second question: can I generate this from command line?
Thanks
Antonio
