Love the guide Kal!

This may just be a bug but I have HCFR loaded on two XP machines. On one of the PC's I can't get the grayscale points nor any of the primary/secondary marks to show up on the CIE chart anymore. I know you can right click on the chart to show/hide those options but that doesn't work (it does work on my other XP machine). Initially it did work on both machines. I've tried to delete the colorHCFR.ini file, I've installed/uninstalled, and rebooted with no success. All I have are two triangles on the color background.

Anyone else see this type of behavior or is it some hidden setting I've clicked? Or some type of overlay video card setting I've could change?

Stupid question but maybe somebody else has seen this and knows how to fix it...considering I don't speak French I post here. Confused Confused

The only issue I've had is when the 0 IRE reading sometimes comes up with the error "No Data from Sensor" instead of giving me values.

Unless all the columns are filled, HCFR won't give you any graphs at all. In which case enter 0,0,0 as values of copy the 10 IRE column over to the 0 IRE.

I've never seen the issue you describe.

Glad you like the guide! Now back to writing! I've got one section left! Smile

Thanks for the link to the thread kal. Reading that thread on the other forum I found the problem. My notebook PC was set to 16-bit color depth instead of 32-bit. If you want to make sure that HCFR displays all the proper components use 32-bit color depth!!!

Interesting. I forgot about that. I'm going to add this to the GREYSCALE CALIBRATION FOR DUMMIES guide as a warning.
