[Users] Opendtect 4.0 SW graphical rendering options

[Kristofer Tingdahl]

Dear Antonio,

it is always good to hear the priorities from users, as they use 
OpendTect in other ways than dGB Earht Sciences does in house. The 
texture handling has been completely redesigned in OpendTect 4 to 
facilitate the texture-blending, and in the process the higher 
resolution was lost. We are working intensively on this right now, and 
hope to have a fix out soon.

Best regards,

Kristofer Tingdahl
