Which panels would you like "frozen"? I think the suggestion is good, but
it needs to be more detailed.
The dual ranges, of course, aren't in the manual. They *are* in the new
addendum, which you'll be receiving soon. By the way, we added some NEw
range stuff on top of the dual ranges… we just finished implementing
"Poly-Ranges". Poly ranges take the colors in your range, put one at each
vertex of a polygon, rect, screen, or – they "spot" the colors around the
circumference of a freehand or elliptical region – and then the spread from
one to another in MANY directions at once. Best to use only a few colors,
or the computation gets unbelieveably long. You can use 256 if you want,
but that takes *forever*.
You know the color triangle? You can make that with a three color range of
red, green and blue; set poly range, smooth range, and draw a triangle.
Bingo. :^)
Anyway, we'll have that up this week, I think. Looks like IP 6.4 will have
a large number of bug fixes, too. :^( At least they're fixed. :^)
