Re: Windows standalone puzzle
Yes, exactly. I simply took the code out of the function handler and used it in place of the function call in the mousedown handler in the button script, and it worked fine. This happened with two quite different functions that accomplished the same result: both of the approaches worked in the Mac IDE, but in both cases the function calls failed in the Windows standalone but moving the code into the calling handler worked fine. Makes no sense to me. The function handlers were in the stack script, though, not in the button, I didn't think to test that aspect of it. But the functions were clearly in the message path -- it worked fine on my MacBook. -- Peter Peter M.

But any video shoot (or still photo) does that anyway - the eye can handle very wide variations in light intensity, but photo/video can't, so the cameraman attempts to capture as much of the important detail as she can. But 'auto light level' (or AWB, or any other adjustment) will vary the detail captured. Not so much 'erase the truth' as 'try to convey as much as the tools allow', and I'd see 'flash suppression' (if it could be done properly) as a similar attempt to allow more people to watch a particular clip. But Tim is right - it's a cost issue rather than a technical one; and although a TV station might be able to do this and help promote their greater community concern for disabled folks, the affected target is probably too small to cost-justify it.

This is why I love this community: When you need to optimize a routine into a three-line solution using arrays, Alex Tweedly will be the guy to deliver it. When you need new ways of thinking about complex data structures, Dick Kriesel is your man. When you need geometry, we all turn to Jim Hurley. And when you need a pair of eyes able to see the finest of details, Curry's got your back. And if we want rigorous benchmarking of scripting techniques, Richard's our guy. Credit where credit's due.
