I've got a graphic with its foregroundpattern set to 9, one of

On OS X, the graphic draws pure white. On Windows, it crashes the
whole app the moment I make the graphic visible.
It looks like the patterns are not being included in the
standalone. Anyone have experience with this? Am I going to have
to hunt down the pattern and include a copy in my stack? The
standalone builder doesn't have an option to copy them over, and
to be honest, I always thought that was unnecessary.
Jacque,
I could swear that an earlier version of the Standalone Builder
allowed you to include the standard image and pattern libraries. I
posed a question about this a few months ago, but didn't get any
response. I think it's needed, because if you use images or
patterns from the "standard" or even *shudder* Metcard
libraries ;-) they disappear in the standalone.
If this isn't done already, I'll submit a feature enhancement to
QCzilla. Anybody know anything about this?
I didn't see anything in bugzilla about it, but if you do submit
I'd suggest doing it as a bug rather than as an enhancement
request. Just the fact that missing patterns crash Windows is
enough to qualify it as a bug, but even if that didn't happen, it
is something people expect as part of the standalone building
process. If patterns aren't included automatically, there should at
least be an option to include them in the SB just as you can
include cursors now.
Added. BZ #4299. Vote early and often.
