According to IM I, p. 405, when the procedure which draws a user item in a dialog box is called, the current port will already be set to the dialog window's grafport. But I have a user item for which this doesn't seem to be true. It's not a serious problem, since inserting a call to SetPort at the beginning of the procedure fixes things, but I'm just curious if this is a bug in the Dialog Manager or what. I should mention that I discovered this problem in the Think Pascal debugging environment, so maybe it's a Think Pascal problem and not a Dialog Manager problem. I have other user items that work fine in the Think Pascal environment, but one of them consistently bombs without the extra SetPort. Anyone else ever come across anything like this?
