_SaveSmall Embedded Bug

Rhino
, , , ,

There is an inconsistency with _SaveSmall compared to using _Save or _SaveAs. It defaults to SaveTextures=No where the others default to SaveTextures=Yes.

_SaveSmall also doesn’t present an option for SaveTextures, nor does -SaveSmall present any command line options if the file already has a name.

Here are some sample output files with a picture frame in them

-Save SaveSmall=Yes
-SaveAs SaveSmall=Yes
_SaveSmall

Clipboard-SaveAs-Small.3dm (198.8 KB)

Here is the relevant sections from _Audit3dmFile:

@Gijs Did this get logged? As much as we try to avoid _SaveSmall, someone on the team occasionally uses it and wipes out all of our reference images.
