I bet you thought I've forgotten about this, but no, I haven't. I had a bug report this week, and while I had the code open, I went back to your patch. I've incorporated the functionality you want, though I didn't exactly use your patch. You had a few places where you'd stop grap altogether on an error, and I try to avoid stopping if at all possible. We also differed on what to do if there was a frame where the min and max calculated values were the same - I added one you wanted to multiply. The cases I've seen where the values are the same, it's also often the case that they're both zero, so multiplying doesn't help at all. Adding one is certainly also a hack, but I think it falls back to some reasonable behavior. But, I have made changes that produce the same output as your test cases - or very near. If you get a chance, have a look at http://www.lunabase.org/~faber/Vault/software/grap/grap-1.38pre.tar.gz unless I hear very bad news from you or my bug reporter, I'm going to roll this out in the next few days. Thanks for your enormous patience. -- http://www.lunabase.org/~faber Unexpected attachment? http://www.lunabase.org/~faber/FAQ.html#SIG
