Do you see me checking any of this shit in? No. I'm running it past you first - that's what I'm doing. > 1. Why you think this way will be better in the long run.

Considering the current state of things I wouldn't want to get involved in proper MDI any time soon - however a pseudo-MDI (whereby we have multiple buffers and can swap them in and out) is within more easy a reach. > 2.

This isn't about processing events - this is about the tearing down and rebuilding the whole of the view (i.e the parameter boxes, the segment canvas, the rulers, the trackbuttons etc) every time we set a new document. I agree that the solution I'm trying out currently might be a complete waste of time but that's why it's an investigation. > b.

You have your (anal retentive) methods and I have mine. Just because I don't make a list of fucking metrics doesn't mean I don't understand the problem. Dipshit.
