EditCDG guide (acrobat document)
Excellent document describing how to use EditCDG. Written by B Flat.
Never had a chance to thank you for all the time put into this document, so here's a big thank you!

or use this link on the same page:

Basically, for simple Graphic problems, usually misplaced Pixels, play CDG Trk in a CDG player and make a note as to the TIME a problem occurs. Scroll down the TIME index listed on the Left to just before your noted TIME and click into the panel on some time to turn it BLUE. Use F8 key to STEP FORWARD until you see the problem occur. STEP BACK ONE step with F7. Press F2, or click the ICON, to open the "Edit Tile Block" window. Observe where the MISPLACED Pixel is located in the Window and use your MOUSE to CLICK where the MISPLACED Pixel is supposed to be...it should be obvious. Save and repeat to the end of the Song.

As you become more proficient, you will be able to Recover lost Pixels, Change Commands, and even, change the Color of the Graphics, including the SWEEP Color, if you want...among other things.

... The graphics issue has partially reappeared in 4.06

In 4.04, the DK graphics issue highlighted in this thread was was fixed:

V4.04 - Released September 18, 2008

FIXED DK Songs Logo - Some DK songs have a very different logo that did not draw correctly in 3.321a and prior, 3.40 and 4.03 versions. We have fixed this.


There were no problems with this issue in 4.05.

However, with 4.06 the garbled graphics problem with the DK diagonal sweeps has partially re-appeared. The graphics are initially garbled and then seem to 'self correct' after a momentary pause.

All custom Windows updates (Belarc confirmed), Video Card drivers etc are in place. I even uninstalled 4.06; reinstalled 3.321A; reinstalled the 4.05 upgrade; tested - no problems. Reinstalled the 4.06 upgrade and alas we've taken a step back again.

I can revert back to the 'workaround' but maybe this can be revisited again in 4.07?

For the record I'm running XP SP3; AMD Athlon 64 x 2 Dual Core Processor 4600+; 2.0 Gig RAM; NVidia GeForce 7600GT; 320GB Hard Drive with plenty of spare space.

Great to see the extremely positive feedback from the other 4.06 users.

Cheers,

Brian
