Hey Wouter,

I thought it might be easier to drag images into treesheets, if there was not currently some kind of bug, where the sheet scrolls to near the top.

I love photos in treesheets, but I am still not sure how to get around the problems of large files, and lack of export.  Do you think, it would be feasible to allow the image to load from a file or web location instead?

Thanks,

David

David,

Never knew.. just looked, and it what it does is that it brings the cell its currently hovering over into view. I will turn that behavior off in the next release. For now, you can kinda side step it by dragging into the window thru a "path" that does not involve you hovering over parent cells.

How are large files a problem? If you stored them externally, you'd need those files around too, right?
I guess one issue is that it uses PNG compression internally, which can bloat things up if the originals were JPGs. I should maybe keep track of the original file format if that is the problem.

Export: do you mean for html?
