well, thanks for the reply. it is strange though. ive found that if i dolly in one MMB to where the zoom is around .989, it appears to be fine, also if i dolly out once, it appears fine, and even then sometimes if i MMB back to zoom 1.000 it looks allright, but not when i press the 1:1 icon. strange, but i guess ill manage. hopefully i wont be working here much longer. again, thanks for the help
