Charles,
<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> The ability for us to be very smart about bitmap handling, by only embedding the original JPEG and not de-compressing the image in the native file, is a perfect example. We're the first drawing program in the world to do it (as far as I know) and the benefits are huge. Expect the feature to appear in our competitors. It may take years however. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Hm, I have to apologize if I have to correct your opinion here: Satori Film FX and their picture editing software had been the first - some 3 or 4 years ago. Another fine British code factory by the way ;-}. They used 64 bit internally, which produced extremely smooth transitions. Compared to that beauty even Photoshop results look blocky.
I don't know what happened to them, but I think they didn't survive the Internet hype.

We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.
