11/17/03 - 2.0.3/1.0.2
Fixed a problem with RadarLab PLUS Tools Panel at 120 DPI, and a problem with image sizes caused by auto-refresh loading new images while the form is minimized.

Fixed a problem with one of the forms not displaying some images as large as it could.

Added Full Screen Mode

Added Distance Measuring.

When an image was zoomed and panned, saving an empty buildlist would save the panned position, but not the zoom level. When the image was loaded again, it was loaded with zoom level 1, but panned to the position saved in the build list. I added code to exit the save procedure if the build list is empty, and code to save the pan position only if the zoom level is in the build list.

Removed the Atlantic Satellite menu items.

Fixed a problem that caused the RadarLab Plus package to not load after the GIS demo package had been installed and then expired.
