Hehehe, mix the terms myself. To me a pixel is a dot. They both represent the smallest unit I can work with, barring the fact that a pixel is made up of actually 3 dots.
I'll try to use PPI from now on when not referring to print quality.

I may have posted this request before: item / object scaling. I usually use Hero system which has a scale of 1 hex (which is 1") = 2 meters and while that is close to 1" = 5 feet of d20 it would be nice to have the software handle that difference automatically.

Already been mentioned for minis, but a general ability to mark zones /
regions that are not walls, floors, or adventure rooms would be useful.
These might be: victory areas for minis, outlines of permaent spell
effects, markings to indicate holes in the ceiling. Currently, I'm fudging
this with walls, but obviously that confuses the program somewhat.
There's also a question of whether these zones should all be of one type,
or whether they should be divided into 'map features' and 'dm markings'
- to enable them to be independently toggled on and off for printing.
Other biggy: ability to select arbitrary regions for printing. Currently, to
print just a part I need to copy it to a new map and then carefully align it
so it falls on the right place/s on the pages.
Similar: ability to select squares for printing and then add a "border"
which pulls in a small amount of the surrounding image (eg to make sure
I get walls, doors, and other stuff that's part-on, part-off a square drawn
properly. I could select a full square around the outside, but often I don't
want that much extra space or a full square border means it won't fit on
the page.
Terrain tags: ability to add little terrain icons to squares (eg D&D minis).

Nom.au, what are terrain icons and what do they look like. Couldn't you just create a version of them and stamp them on your map?

Something will be very cool for Dundjinni:Fractal map. Fracal are cool to
generate many campaing maping feature 
It's will be cool to fix the TEXT feature of Dundjinni in the mac version it's
very buggy to use.

Hex numbering would be cool... like the possibility to enlarge hexes.

Arrigo,
Could you expand on what you want please?
I understand a feature to enlarge hexes and putting numbers in the grid.
Is this what you are asking for?

WayneFrancis,
yes I was meaning that. I am currently putting hex numbers numbers by hand in my current map and the thing is a bit boring... (and it's only 19x26 grid...) In addition enlarging hexes (or squares) would help in creating tactical maps without using other programs to hex, crop and editing them...
And now another request... the ability to import other files in Dundjinny to have a base layer over wicht to work (example I need to draw a real coastline in a campaign map...)

Know what I'd like to see added to Dundjinni ?
A menu option that would make it evident as I am mapping where the page borders are ! Either a slightly heavier (2 or 3 pixel?) grid line dividing the map into a 4x4 mega grid (while also displaying the smaller grid) or a tiling effect where every other page is slightly gray.
- Eric
