d.to.rast(1grass)           GRASS GIS User's Manual          d.to.rast(1grass)

NAME
       d.to.rast   -  Saves  the  contents  of the active display monitor to a
       raster map.

KEYWORDS
       display, export, raster

SYNOPSIS
       d.to.rast
       d.to.rast --help
       d.to.rast output=name  [--overwrite]  [--help]  [--verbose]   [--quiet]
       [--ui]

   Flags:
       --overwrite
           Allow output files to overwrite existing files

       --help
           Print usage summary

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

       --ui
           Force launching GUI dialog

   Parameters:
       output=name [required]
           Name for output raster map

DESCRIPTION
       d.to.rast  saves  the  content of the currently selected monitor into a
       raster map. The active monitor can be selected  with  d.mon.  d.to.rast
       can  be  run from GUI Console tab, too. This module is not sensitive to
       computational region settings.

EXAMPLE
       We combine different raster and vector map layers to create a composite
       layer  which  can be draped over elevation in 3D view.  First, we add a
       couple of maps to layer manager:
       g.region raster=elevation
       d.rast map=elevation
       d.rast map=lakes
       d.vect map=roadsmajor width=4
       d.vect map=roadsmajor width=2 color=yellow
       # create a raster map from the display
       d.to.rast output=composite

       Then uncheck all layers except for elevation and switch to 3D view.  In
       Data tab, set color map to the newly created composite map.

       model.
