Read that the mouse buttons could control rotation and zoom on of graphic. With the right button, I managed to zoom out the graphic till it disappeared and was only left with the moving stars... In doing so, I can't retrieve the graphic anymore since I can't pinpoint exactly where to click with the right button. Help!! Duh!! :( |

Now there's a problem I haven't seen before! 8-) My suggestion: Go into your SETI@Home preferences, and copy down all your current settings. Change your graphic preferences to something else. Have BOINC Manager update SETI so your computer gets the change. Then, go back to preferences and put your original preferences back. Again, have BOINC Manager update. I think this should put you back where you started, before you zoomed away from the graphic. MJ ![]() |

I'll give it a shot as soon as the present work unit is done. Thank you for your suggestion. Regards, Michel §:c) Montreal, Canada |

Change it online, click "update" in your BOINC manager, then change it back online and update again. This will result in you losing perhaps 2 seconds of crunch time (probably less, unless you're on dial up). Bonne chance. |
