That is it exactly.

I've already done a major rewrite of my map data structures. The problem is my layers panels. The way I have them constructed they need to be updated by the auto-parse thread, which is separate from the main form thread. I had it working for a while, but when I was doing some rewrites I didn't test it as thoroughly as I ought to have, now it doesn't work for some cases of auto-parse. I realize I'm going to have to basically rewrite the whole class and I'm just not looking forward to it.

None the less, I shall attempt to carry on. I want to give a world class tool to support all you mappers.
