Sorry. This was one of those silly last minute
changes that are so simple, you don't even bother
to check the program again, even though you KNOW
that these are exactly the kind of changes that
tend to stick a knife in your back. :-(

Fixed now.

Morning David,

Many thanks for that - all is well now.

I update my Coyote library using SVN - this doesn't include the cgwindow.old.pro file at the moment, so I downloaded the latest zip file and got it from there.

Thanks again for your help,

David

Sigh...

This is what happens when you move your mouse button
hand from your right to your left to avoid repetitive
strain injury, I guess. :-(

Fortunately, I have foreseen problems.

There is a file named cgwindow.old.pro in your
Coyote directory. Simply rename your current cgwindow.pro
to cgwindow.junk.pro and then reinstate the old
one.

I'll get this sorted out this morning.

David
