OK, at least the obvious bugs are fixed. It is still not perfect,
but I'm content to wave my hands at the rest of the darn things for
the time being. I *really* have better things to do today.
I haven't yet tried this with massive images, but I do know
the part of the code that selects the image value was written
in 2003 and I do things *much* differently with the combination
of TVImage and TVInfo (similar functionality). So it is possible
I can speed up that algorithm considerably. I just don't have
time to work on it anymore today, though.
The part that concerns me the most is the "flashing" while
dragging complaint. I've had reported problems with this on Macs,
but haven't been able to snag a Mac yet to see what the problem
might be. My youngest is going on a road trip next week. Maybe
I'll see if he can drop off his Mac before he leaves. I'm guessing
I'll have to delete about 10000 movies to get that IDL workbench
installed. :-(
