Hints and Tips

• Displaying the population count can cause a significant slow-down when generating large patterns, especially when using HashLife. If you want to generate at maximum speed then hit the Full Screen button.
• Editing operations are fastest in QuickLife.
• Pasting large, sparse patterns is much faster when using OR mode, or if the current pattern is empty, or if the paste image is completely outside the current pattern edges.
• After making a selection you can change its size by dragging inside the selection near a corner or edge, or move the selection by dragging near the middle.
