Ancient fingers at work, "did" above is supposed to be "didn't"
I took the sleep back out, and in moving the ShadingOriginY down
10 at a time, I've run off the strip at about 60 as the preview
image is now bleaching its highlights. 0 to 50 in that slot all
give the same results, magenta edges, yellow center vertically.
I'm beginning to think I should take this one back as defective.
Has anyone ever cleaned the bottom of their glass?, this one
almost gives me the impression its full of cigarette smoke or
something.
