Blink function

Post by Marpel »

I have come to use this function quite a bit. I routinely make a number of iterations of a "built up" image with differences in a few places within the image. Once done, I like to expand the images to full screen (which for D3X files, expand fits them comfortably just within the screen boundaries) and rotate through them while evaluating them to identify the best choice(s).

However, I find the Blink dialogue remains on the top of the stack, effectively blocking part of the image, as they scroll through. Is there a way to keep the dialogue behind the images, until called to the top by the Dialogue button?

Thanks,

Marv

Marv,

You can move the Bilnk Window almost off the screen.
Grab it with the mouse at the very top and move it to the bottom of the sreen, it will hide behind the taskbar , just a little peice vsible to be able to bring it back when needed.

I tried not bringing the Blink dialog to the top, but then it keeps getting buried every time the images change so you have to race to move it out of the way before it gets covered again.

To solve the problem, I added another setting which determines the number of blink cycles. When the limit is reached, blinking stops as though you had clicked the red button and the dialog is brought to the top. You can still click the red button as before to stop blinking assuming you can see it.
