Spent seven hours tracking down one bug / trying to get something new to work. I tried to go to sleep last night, but kept thinking about it. After laying in bed for an hour I had it. I got up, I fixed it. I went back to sleep… it was 2:30 by that time.

So this morning I got up and kept working on things… I still am. As a side effect of fixing the bug last night, graphics got even smoother (yet again). This time, I decided to break out the DV camera to record a bit. I’ve got an LCD display, so thankfully I can record without flicker. Remember that capture a few weeks ago of Wireframe demo 2? That BeScreenCapture movie was pretty accurate in how slow (fast) things were moving at that time.

Behold: WireFrame example 2 as of this morning (~3.5 MB divx) This is less screen-flicker than occurs for me when I run this under Windows 2000.

I had hoped to have more to report at this point, but I’m still working on it. I’m mostly in a bug-fixing mode right now. I want it to be more stable before I move on much further. There’s still some pretty nasty bugs, and many of the AWT components don’t seem to behave quite properly. I think Andrew has some event changes that he needs to commit… although I’m not sure.
