Re: Graphics disappear
There have been issues with metal and Rev off and on for a while to the point where if I needed the metal look I would use a metal bg graphic instead. A bit more involved than a checkbox Something to try: See Eric Chartonet's Tutorial picker for the method. (The metal graphic is supplied) here's the whole tutorial. Amost as fast to download the package. http://www.sosmartsoftware.com/?r=revolution_didacticiels&l=en select #003 How to install a brushed metal skin on all platforms: you can see right away if it works. I bet these are stacks set to metal. Leopard changed the metal look and it no longer works properly with Revolution. Just turn off metal until RunRev work out the solution.

Drat, I must have missed Kevin's post. I suspect the problems may still be somewhat related, so I'll be interested in what surfaces from your search. Thanks.

Re: Re Graphs and text reports
I don't think it does. While simple graphs, (and even some less simple ones) are not a huge stretch in Revolution, some of the ancillary things like rotated text and so on are difficult, if not impossible. (I'd be very happy to be wrong about that, if anyone knows better).
