Layout for small pattern doesn't work for large A0 sheet paper, all other paper size OK 20150904 develop build

Created testpattern2.val (attached) of with individual measurement file new_susan.vit (attached) Created 1cm closed detail seam allowance Created layouts using layout default settings for each paper size except for large A0 size.

When selecting A0 paper size, this error appears: 'Several workpieces left not arranged, but none of them match for paper'

    Where? I don't see any attachment files.

    I can enter 841mm x 1189mm in the A0 width and height, with 'auto-crop' option checked, and the layout is generated without error.

    If I don't select the 'auto-crop' option, I get this message: 'Cannot create image. Size too big'

    QImage class has some limits.

    Isn't that what the error message says, maybe I don't understand fully: 'Cannot create image. Size too big'

    Is there any way to change from 96ppi to something lower?

    Can we add to the message like this: 'Cannot create image. Size too big. Re-try Layout with 'auto-crop length' option checked, and/or reduce ppi'

    How this will help you avoid limitation? Instead better use vector formats.

    oops. I entered 841 x 1189 'centimeters' Should have been 'millimeters'

    To recap, the error was caused by 0.3 x 0.3 in the A0 width & height

    Then when I corrected it by entering 841 x 1189, I should have selected 'millimeters'.

    This issue is resolved. Thanks

    One question - why doesn't Valentina retain the new A0 width & height settings?

    I enter 841 x 1189 'millimeters' for A0.
    The next time I create a layout with A0, the settings are 0.03 x 0.03 centimeters.
    I've tried saving the pattern, saving the layout, closing Valentina and reopening.
    A0 always returns to 0.03 x 0.03 cm.

    Is this an operator error, or should I open another issue?

    Valentina remember last settings that was used. When you do many tries it will help you do it more quick.

    It doesn't remember the last settings used, it always returns to 0.03 x 0.03 cm. It forgets the new '841 x 1189 millimeters' setting.

    I also tried '84.1 x 118.9 centimeters' - it didn't remember this either. It returned to 0.03 x 0.03 cm.

    As i thought, Alex made a mistake. And compiler show two warnings about it. But he ignored them. :(
