Has anyone run across errors saving out a tif file? The message states "failed to save ....."

Thanks

Anything wider than about 3000 pixels will not save if you have Antialiasing on in the Export options.

Somebody else found a solution to this problem a while back, but I don't remember whom:
Try increasing your virtual memory substantially (5-20 000 MB) and see what that does. You should be able to export to larger files with AA on. Alternatively this will allow you to export really big with AA off and the reduce in Photoshop or similar to a meaningful size which will soften the edges to good quality.

Its certainly a strange problem, and i think its must vary with the amount of memory youve got available, as toxic suggess.

I just had a quick play around and managed to export up to about 4500 with AA on, also had the task manager open at the same time, and SU does use a load of memory when exporting these big pics.
