I'm not sure I see the need for this. If they are the default values and drivers have no need to change them, then storing them in the regular period and polarity fields seems just fine (they'll be propagated into new state objects as they get created). And if the driver has a need to change them, then why would it ever care about the default values? Thierry -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
