                               Known bugs in XITE
     __________________________________________________________________

Known bugs in version 3.47

     * The PNG to BIFF converter crashes under Solaris, but works under
       Linux.

Not really bugs...

     * This version has mainly been tested under Linux, specifically Red
       Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 4.
     * The XITE toolbox for MATLAB has not really been tested. Not all
       XITE routines are included. Some more may make it into a later
       release.
     * Some algorithms only work for images with pixel type UNS_BYTE.
     * Choosing send image from the histogram window works properly only
       for UNS_BYTE images.
     * When a very narrow image is displayed, the actual image may only
       occupy a vertical strip on the left side of the window. The rest of
       the window will be shown in the window background color (typically
       gray). This happens when the following conditions are met.
          + The window width is smaller than the width of the window
            manager decoration (window title above the image).
          + The window is displayed with fixed aspect ratio.
       To solve this, either start xshow with the option "-aspect" (to use
       variable aspect ratio) or turn off the fixed aspect ratio of the
       particular window as soon as it has come up (via a menu entry in
       the Options image menu), or remove the window manager decoration
       (see the manual page for your choice of window manager or look for
       a decoration resource in the window manager's application defaults
       file).
     * Manipulation of the histogram is not reflected in the image when
       the histogram is made via the xshow menu on platforms with multiple
       hardware colormaps (such as Silicon Graphics Indy). This is not
       serious, since a histogram can also be generated from using the
       mouse button (Shift-MB2) in the image window. In this latter case,
       manipulation of the histogram is reflected.
