FlatField changes, Animation length does not

Hi,

We have a FlatField which maps (time -> (lat, lon, ...)
which we are animating. Lets say the length of the domain set is 6.

Subsequently the FlatField is changed by deleting some times from the domain
set, as well as the corresponding range values. Lets say that the new length of
the domain set is 4.

The animation control continues to display a domain set length of 6 (though only
4 timesteps are displayed).

How do we force the animation control to notice the change in the domain set
(which I assume also will change the labelling of the display)?

I can illustrate this problem by adding the following 3 lines to Test03.java

    // jk
    FieldImpl[] new_images = {image_sequence, image_sequence};
            // both domain sets have length 4, previously one was 4 and the
other 6
    Tuple new_big_tuple = new Tuple(new_images);
    ref_big_tuple.setData(new_big_tuple);

Modified code for Test03.java follows.


Thanks in advance,

James
