Folks:
I have a desktop application that I’ve tested on MacOSX and Windows 7. I don’t 
have a copy of Windows 8 and before I do, I wonder if you could look at the two 
images and give me some hints about what might be going on in Windows 9. First, 
I see huge pixellation in the Windows 8 image. Second, the fonts are way off in 
the plot at the bottom, not to mention the huge pixellation problem. The map 
image is a much larger jpg that is reduced to the shown size and then screen 
captured. The shown map image is the captured image on top of the basic image. 
I do the screen capture so I can draw symbols into a reduced size image, which 
is much faster. Both the map image and the lower plot image are screen 
captures. So, the problem could be either in the original image display and 
reduction, or in the screen capture action..

The Macintosh (good) image is at:

The Windows 8 version is at:

I expect that I’ve left out some critical factor that applies to Windows 8 
computers. This occurs on 2 students using Windows 8. One of the students is in 
Japan, the other is not. I don’t have any information on the students’ 
computers yet, and I haven’t got Windows 8 to start debuging, yet. So, just 
asking for ideas at this stage.

Thanks a bunch,
Bill
