Hi Louis, hello all,
I'm a new-kid-on-the-strange-attractors-block .
I installed the 0.3 a few days ago.
I don't know much about it but I'm already
having tons of fun with it.
To me .. it works like some kind of MAGIC ...
To me too, sometimes I wonder how my garbled code doesn't crash more
often! :-)
What is the maximum number of iterations
that can be applied to a render? There's a point
where I increase the 'iterations' but the estimated
time of complition does not increase anymore.
Does it mean it reached a 'limit'?
The maximum number of iterations is four billions, or more precisely 2
to the power of 32. You'll see that no matter how many zeros you type in
the iterations property text box it will revert to the maximum. I
thought it would be enough but some users like to render very large
images and four billions iterations may not be sufficient, especially
for attractors with a high fractal dimension. Version 0.4 will let you
render an attractor for ever, until you interrupt the render.
( this is a dumb question )
When I save a csview file in the projects folder
it gets lost. I'm not able to find it when I open
the prokects folder .. there I just find the csproj
files. Why???
If you don't have a project already open you won't be able to load a
.csview file. .csview (View Settings) files *replace* the current
project View Settings. Once you've opened or created a project, the
.csview extension will appear in the file dialog box filter drop down
list. You can also replace a project View Settings with another project
View Settings.

Nicolas Desprez
