Continue (disabled)

This menu item starts drawing the fractal image from where it left off.  This item may be disabled since the front window is not a fractal, the previous fractal generation was not cancelled, or the fractal is being generated.

Continue

This menu item is similar to Redraw, except that it starts drawing the fractal image from where it left off (if the image generation process had been previously terminated).

Redraw (disabled)

Redraw will start the image creation process from the very beginning.  This item may be disabled since the front window is not a fractal or the fractal is being generated.
