<<Aaron (if you catch this), Is there any way to have the routine, when
started, go in and compare existing thumbs to existing pics, then automatically
delete any stray thumbs?>>
David, whenever you tell Eyebrowse to do a build for a directory, it will check
for any stray thumbs and get rid of them. And since build will work its way
down the directory tree structure, just execute a build from the root directory
and it will delete any stray thumbnails for your entire drive.
<<I've also noticed the routine randomly creating thumbnails in the directory I
have open. I'll just be sitting there doing nothing, and suddenly a thumbnail
or two will be created. Is this a known problem with the first upload? Also,
(I'm almost done, I promise) when I run the program from a module set at
800x600x24 (my materials edit), any 800×600 image that is displayed full screen
takes an unusually long time to display (20 seconds, versus a 756×480 or
640×480 which take 3 – 4 seconds).>>
Eyebrowse will take any opportunity it can get to create thumbnails. If you
don't tell Eyebrowse to do anything for a few seconds, it will take the
initiative and use that dead-time to create a thumbnail or two.
Sometimes to make an image fit on your screen, that image has to be resized.
The extra delay is due to this image resizing.
