Hi, 1.4.0 is 6 releases ago, so yes, things may well have changed. I think the reduction is scan speed by a factor of 3 to 55Hz made in V1.6.1 may have made it less able to be read at high speed, but greatly improved it's dark patch reading accuracy. There simply aren't enough samples within the patch itself to clearly distinguish the edges of the patch when read too fast. If this is the explanation, then there are only a couple of possible solutions - the simplest is to reduce your reading pace. The other would be to increase the length of the patches, so that there are relatively more samples within the patch than over the patch transitions. I suspect that the overall chart read time would end up about the same though, at the expense of more paper used and strips to read. Graeme Gill.
