You can do this by putting a minus sign in front of the numbers :) For example, if the INPUT_SCALE is 10000, make it -10000. Make sure to change both INPUT_SCALE and OUTPUT_SCALE, or you'll get following errors all the time. - Steve ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
