Okay, that sounds good! Thanks for reporting back.

Glad you got that to work.  Do you recall if that was the same in v18? Because 
maybe the default 
has changed, and maybe it's something I could fix.
If so, could you add a brief entry on our reporting form:

This is something I was *sort of* aware of... I did make a change in v18 to 
support image export
on the mac, and it *may* be the same change that is needed to support the gif 
export.  Do you 
recall if this functionality worked in v18?
Also, could you please add an entry on the form for this issue for sure, so I 
will make sure to 
look into it for our next beta release:
