Ed,
>> I ended up usinng "optics" (magnify and continue).
Yeah, you did the right thing, although _if_ a poco function was available it
would have been more efficient or seamless.
>> Wasn't POCO supposed to do everything?
Well, it does do an awful lot! I just found out that you can write POCO
programs for OPTICS and this could include scaling and then rendering a cel.
You'd need the POCO manuals and a knowledge of C to figure out how to work it,
though. However, I'm quite surprised that a simple cel/stretch is missing,
without going through optics. Functions for doing all kind of other things to
cels are available. Sounds like a wishlist item. Shall you report it or shall
I? Probably you, since it's your baby <g>. Just post a message to sysop in the
wishlist section and it should be added to Adesk's internal wishlist.
