Sure did. I created a bootable CD and installed that on a clean partition. Update CD creator won't work without at least fp12, DDpak 2 &Java 1.1.8, so I have all of that stuff > Are you running with DIMIC? Never heard of it (or have, just not abreviated) >How much RAM do you have on that current system? 223.6Mb It's Definitely fp 12,13,14,15 that have this problem. I know it's not a bad installation of colorworks because It was on a seperate partiton. All I had to do was create another program object. It worked fine before.

That should be enough for at least a 1GB image with Dynamic In-memory Image compression, with a lot of headroom left. >It's Definitely fp 12,13,14,15 that have this problem.

I updated the old SDD 7.03 drivers to SNAP 213 SE, and still the same. when I setup 1280*1024 canvas it came up at 60% size, and about the right 40% of that was jet black. Wow! I guess as I have always worked on images smaller than screen dimensions, that's the reason I've never encountered it. I know I remember having a "conversation" with a German guy who had problems with Colorworks and SDD on a Matrox card. that was about 6 months ago. When you look at the superb quality of the artwork and printing in the printed manual, it's amazing, considering what they would have cost to produce, that SPG are still there with their Web Graphics tools on the Darkside, and hadn't gone down the drain. It would have to be the most expensive software manual ever produced! Will check out the gradient controls. -- Regards, Mike Failed the exam for -------------------- MCSE - Minesweeper Consultant and Solitaire Expert -------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
