<FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>I just committed to the cvs a new profiling tool written in pure TclTk. To go along with this, I’ve re-arranged the map display toolbar a bit to group similar functions together and add help to all buttons. Please test.<BR>
<BR>
The region issue I mentioned earlier today appears to be still with us, so I did a quick workaround by adding a zoom menubutton option to set the current region (i.e., stored in WIND) to match the map display. This calls a function that Cedric added.<BR>
<BR>
Trevor Wiens created bindings to allow rapid tool switching using ‘hot-keys’. When using an interactive display tool you can now use a hot key to switch from one tool to another without using the mouse to select the tool. There are keys for each side (L&R) of the keyboard. They are very handy if you need to quickly switch from one function to another.<BR>
<BR>
Zoom-in: i or z<BR>
Zoom-out: o or t<BR>
Pan: p or a<BR>
Query: ? or q<BR>
Measure: m or d<BR>
<BR>
Try them and see what you think.<BR>
<BR>
I also changed the one-click zoom to the sqrt(2), following Glynn’s suggestion, to zoom more rapidly in either direction.<BR>
