Ahh, I didn't do the final step of creating the quicktime movie.

The problem is that when we write out a quicktime movie we specify a size that 
we get from the
size of the main 3D view pane. This works fine if we are capturing just the 3D 
view but if we 
are capturing the legend or the full window the size of the images differs from 
the size given 
to quicktime.

This is fixed now.
