I've improved things quite a lot, but there's a bit more work to do yet
(the arrow keys misbehave a bit).  I'll definitely make the same changes
to 1.0 once I've finished.

Ah yes.  In 1.1.5 I put the depth panel into an opengl list which can
easily be 10 times faster to draw so works well for things which don't
change much.  But that list will need to be regenerated when the window
is resized.

This should work:

*units left right up down 0.01 metres

Can you send me (off list) a data set which produces this error?
