I am the idiot here :bow:

Who needs the history, anyway? But what does it really mean that the history is gone? That I no longer can go back and do changes in the hypergraph?

Thanks! gster123, that did the trick. Now the file opens in a nanosecond :attn:

(by the way, jr.who. Here´s the video card info: ATI Mobility Radeon 9700)

Mac os X 10.4.10

video card model? I don´t even know what that is? Excuse my ignorance, but what does it matter in this case?

My techspecs: Powerbook G4 1,5 GHz
1 GB of DDR SDRAM
VRAM (Total): 64 MB

Is there anybody out there?
