I am a new khoros user, using khoros installed on a Silicon Graphics Personal Iris 4-D. The operating system is Irix v4.1 I am encountering some similar problems to those found in the "Frequently Asked Questions" (FAQ), namely FAQ #30 - Editimage fails for zoom and annotations and replies with the same error message as in FAQ. Upon checking my default visual using "xdpyinfo" it also turned out to be class: Pseudocolor depth: 8 planes Now FAQ #31 states that the X server supplied by Silicon Graphics does not support the 24 bit Read/Write Direct color visual- so I can't change that. Another interesting problem is that some editimage features (window/threshold, colormap) work under strange conditions similar to FAQ #33, that is : view an image in editimage; get 8 bit Pseudocolor display : shrink editimage subform so Pan subform appears : when the cursor is moved in the Pan subform the correct greyscale image appears and also will be affected by window and thresholding : when in the Pan subform all other windows lose their colors as in FAQ #33 So my basic question is can I get editimage and all its features to run on my system to display and annotate 512x512 8 bit gray scale images?
