Oooohh. Another lightbulb going off. Thanks. I understood the points about this being abstracted, but I was thinking that maybe you were saying there was actually a way to specify one vs. another, and that attention should be paid to this. Now I understand what you mean. In the histogram operation project there is a step where you declare support for certain pixel formats. Aren't there more pixel formats than that though? Does supporting those three (step 5), somehow cover everything that needs to happen? -- George Toledo [email protected] www.georgetoledo.com The information contained in this E-mail and any attachments may be confidential.
