Having at last got my act together running Windows Vista [Installed Vista Home Premium (unregistered) on a Pentium 4, 1.7 GHz, 512 MB RAM; running Windows standalone smoothly; will delete tomorrow] I have the unfortunate information that previous feedback about the behaviour of Unicode fonts in RunRev standalones running on Windows Vista is distinctly wonky; as per my previous posting:
----------------------------------------------------- I previously wrote: ----------------------------------------------------- Recently I had a slightly worrying post from a chap attempting to use my Devawriter on a computer running Windows Vista. The problem is that when Devawriter calls a Unicode character that is not meant to move the cursor/insert place forward, merely print something either above or beneath the preceding character it does not; while printing the character it also moves the insert forward so that everything comes out incorrectly.
Installed RunRev Studio 4.0 on Vista (all remarkably smooth and unproblematic); runs the original stack a wee but slower than the standalone (no surprises there): Exactly the same problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ------------------------------------------ Tinkering around with the RunRev code will not affect this problem at all; therefore there is something going on with the way Vista handles Unicode fonts that "upsets" RunRev, or the other way round. This is hugely problematic . . . :( ------------------------------------------ Mind you; having had exactly half an hour of the "Vista experience" I am extremely glad I will (probably, hopefully) have to have very little to do with it again. By contrast XP looks really rather positive to the Windows-hater in me. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
