It is possible to define a backend option as SANE_CAP_SOFT_DETECT only. Such options are essentially read-only information sources for a frontend. Xsane reads the value of such an option and displays it in a grayed-out form. That seems natural and correct to me.
But the value of such an option may change over time. Is there any way to cause Xsane to re-read the option and display the new value? Preferably, without having to initiate a scan or other physical action? -- Dave Close Dreamworks SKG, Animation Technology +1 818 695 6962 Glendale California 91201-3007 dcl...@anim.dreamworks.com http://www.dreamworks.com/
