Hi Richard, Here is the list of goodies That I have added to ManpWin. Let me know which ones can be done now and which need to wait. 1. 24 bit colour 2. Colour modification (requires GUI) 3. PNG files for true colour 4. Animation script generation and running - Zooming in on most fractals - Julia animation - following linear, circle and cardioid (main bulk of mandelbrot set) paths 5. A couple of silly plotting modes - horizontal blinds - vertical blinds 6. Real time 3d generation (this is not as good as FRACTINT, but it saves a lot of tedious mucking about in hyperspace with files) 7. Clipboard support 8. Undo (revert back to previous image) 9. Use of WM_COPYDATA message to allow other programs to send FRACTINT fractal data and to allow FRACTINT to send back an image etc (This allows for fractal processing without needing to restart FRACTINT every time). I have a client that uses this for fractal evolution. He sends me the fractal parameters and screen size etc and I return the image. He can scan through large populations fairly quickly. These all currently work in ManpWin.

But I would like to have a number of goodies added first once the group is ready to let me loose on the code :)
I was wondering if you might be able to add the animation part, but with the restructuring coming soon, it might be more trouble than its worth to add now just to have it all changed around again. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" -- DirectX 9 draft available for download <http://www.xmission.com/~legalize/book/download/index.html> Legalize Adulthood! <http://blogs.xmission.com/legalize/> _______________________________________________ Fractdev mailing list Fractdev@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractdev
