Unfortunatly no. The problem comes in that the text is only drawn at one set speed. On a 160x160 device its not quite as bad to have the text update as you move the scrollbar. On a 320x320 device you have twice as much space to draw, but it's still going at the same speed. The end result is that it takes twice as long to draw text on hires devices than lores. I do have some ideas on how to fix the source problem (text drawing speed), but I found that while the scrollbar was being moved the display just became extremly choppy and scattered, and generally looked bad. So I changed it to act this way. This ofcourse wouldn't quite be as bad on a Tungsten becuase of the faster processor; so maybe it wouldn't be too bad to re-enable it for that, but for other devices it would just slow things down too much. One day this will hopefully be fixed so everything'll be all nice and smooth and no delays (and everything would appear on one page, with word docs, wap sites, broken websites, etc etc :) -- Adam McDaniel Array.org Calgary, AB, Canada _______________________________________________ plucker-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
