Re: [foxboro] Resetting graphics optimization for FoxView?

Thanks Shaun,

Is that what you're doing?  If so, do you have to allow the 30-45 seconds for
each graphic callup that it would take for the objects called to timeout or can
you run through them with just a few seconds between callups?

Regards,

Kevin
