Cool, thanks - Achim, I looked at the qtz you got it more or less (the math reduced sprite is still slightly larger).
I basically want to know the *exact *number, from Apple (or really, from anyone, but not a visual comparison/kinda close thing, like this). -George Toledo On Thu, Sep 9, 2010 at 12:45 PM, Achim Breidenbach <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello George, > > find attached a composition that does the z to width conversion.
