Don't know about the other problems, but the rotated text on the mac is still not fixed. I believe that in the (yet unannounced) version 6, the Mac front end will finally abandon QuickDraw (which is deprecated) in favor of Quartz. There should be other changes as well to the graphics rendering. george On 20 Nov, 2004, at 3:41 am, Time E.
