Therefore, your reply only went to me. I have re-posted in the group Thu, 15 Oct 2009 21:58:57 GMT Richard Buckle http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/998 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev/message/998 I'm glad I ran the actual app because the screenshots don't really cover the rhythm test sufficiently.

That's good to know. I'll make sure they're bigger when I redo them.
