version 6.3, as far as I know that's the latest (and the greatest :P)
one, right?

Got to get it a bit better accurately now with the crosshair, by using

xs = Normalize([0,self.xsize_widget])
ys = Normalize([0,self.ysize_widget])

instead of those read out range values....but it isn't perfect yet...
