Hi All

I handle large pictures in ImageJ (100-300 MB) and I find for some reason that when zoomed in on the picture I can easily scroll smootless through the picture when running ImageJ on a PC, while on a Mac computer the picture moves with an annoying delay and jumps from one point to another.

It happens on both my Mac computers, but when running windows on the very same computers (using bootcamp) the problem disappear.

Is there any reason why ImageJ should be able to handle large pictures better on a Windows version rather than a Mac version? When opening the pictures in Mac’s own default viewer (Preview) there is no problem.


Kindly
Flemming
