I have just upgraded WINE:
http://www.winehq.org/
to 1.2-rc7 on my main Lunux box (Ubuntu 10.04) and thought 'just for run'
I'd have a bash at running the Windows build of my Devawriter Pro Demo 3.30:
http://andregarzia.on-rev.com/richmond/dwriterpro.html
AND:
1. All images with any sort of blending go dark and horrible.
2. Fontsizes in text fields all stay a standard size and cannot be resized.
"Loadsa Rubbish".
Ah, Well, it was worth a try. Althought this result is not only relevant to
my stuff but to anybody who wants to run a Windows build under WINE.
Err . . . naive question number 67:
"Why would one want to try to run a RunRev Windows standalone
on Linux under WINE when there is a perfectly respectable way of
building Linux standalones that comes with RunRev?"
Because:
1. Richmond wondered whether that was a way round some of the persistent
font problems with Linux builds.
2. Linux standalones when compared with Mac and Windows standalone are
not 'perfectly respectable'.
