      XPost: alt.windows7.general, alt.comp.os.windows-10       From: address@is.invalid              J.P. ,              First off, FYI, Paul has minimized his posting about the subject to the       Win10 group only. If you're not there already it might be a good idea to       take a peek.              > If it _is_ light-source-at-centre, then the Y co-ordinate would just be       > the tangent of the latitude              Somewhere along the road I had a similar thought. But why than do all the       formules I now have (four at the moment) all do a tan() and than wrap that       up in a log() ? There must be something to it.              Regards,       Rudy Wieser              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
