It's highly recommended that you not use TIF files in Legacy; they are too 
large.  Copy your TIF files to JPGs or GIFs for use in Legacy.

> picture gallery - family bible TIF's

>
> The symptom is that CPU usage remains at 35-45% while on the picture
> gallery screen.
>
> Having trouble with Legacy “picture processing” on the Master Source
> for the bible.  This includes 13 pictures in the TIF format.    Got
> the error message 91 when I was trying to close down Legacy.
>
> To repeat the problem:
> 1.    Start Legacy Program
> 2.    Click on View  Master List  Source…
> 3.    Select “Bible 1873 …” from the list
> 4.    Click on Edit
> 5.    Cick on Multimedia tab
> 6.    Click on the small picture icon to open the Picture Gallery
>
> Resulting Symptoms:  The picture gallery loads with small pictures,
> all 13 of them.  The cursor remains an hour glass and the CPU usage is
> solid between 35 and 45%.   Every 5-10 seconds the cursor flashes back
> to normal arrow and then flashes back to hour glass.  It will stay
> this way for at least an hour before I shut down the application.   To
> me, it looks like the application is stuck in a programming loop that
> includes some disk I/O.  It does check for a CLOSE button click and
> will eventually close.
>
> Troubleshooting:  Exported to new Legacy file as directed in “91”
> troubleshooting to a new Legacy file.    Same problem with the new
> file.
>
> All images are TIF.  I had some with LZW compression yesterday and
> they would not show.  I made sure all are set with compression = none.
>  Each TIF is about 20 MB.
>
> I have discovered that if I click on picture-gallery-CLOSE, the
> gallery closes after a several seconds delay and the CPU usage drops
> to zero.  The multimedia picture-gallery feature seemed to work fine
> yesterday.
>
>  I have been working on this for hours.  I have to go out for the
> evening to a graduation party for a friends daughter.
>
> Thanks for any suggestions.
