Ok TomR475, As a student here the process is: 1) State the goal 2) Show your work so far 3) Indicate the errors you are seeing 4) State specific questions. And heck, I'm not a teacher so I probably got some of that wrong. Im just abit stuck on how to make the time start when i click on the level err...

You can turn acceleratedRendering on and off at any time.
I am surprised that now it's on by default.

I think what Craig was suggesting is that your foreground color is the same as your background color so that it appears as if there is no content. Easy way to test is the drag the cursor over the field with the left btn down (err select the contents of the field). Double err... turn autoHilite on. O...

how does that fair when another individual were to open my stack?
