[softwarelist] Re: OPro 2.76

In message <37307f914e.martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Martin Wuerthner <public@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> writes 
had not been aware of: When printing from an application that supports
ArtWorks files (and hence calls AWRender_ClaimVectors before
printing), ALL Draw SWIs are actually handled by GDraw instead (which
is quite naughty). I am surprised nobody has noticed so far - this
shows how good GDraw's emulation of Draw is.
That is very interesting. I would never have guessed - think about all that stuff with SpecialFX etc. going to great lengths to not use GDraw (I'm sure there are good reasons). 


I have logged the offending Draw SWI call from OvationPro. While
printing page 64, it asks for a rectangle to be rendered about 4
metres(!) below the bottom edge of the page.


It would be interesting to find out why.
