Hi *, Is anyone else running into alerts that don't fully display on the screen in system 7? (I'm running 7 golden, Mac Plus accelerated to 25Mhz) It's not fatal, and I can usually get the gist of the message, but what's going on here? -- \ Ken Corey, VAX/Unix Programmer/Operator (And GOD am I confused...;) / \ kenc@vaxb.acs.unt.edu ken@isect.lonestar.org /

Similarly, in HyperCard 2.0v2, for example, I get partial text in some of the Stack labels. Perhaps this is some wierd conflict between TrueType and ATM? The best I've been able to do fontwise is install all of the fonts that HyperCard wants into the System file, all of its associated TrueType fonts there as well (except for those that are incorporated into my the laser printer), and then put the laser fonts for the remaining bitmap fonts into the System Folder (at the same level as the System file). ["the remaining bitmap fonts" refers to Palatino, Courier, Helvetica, and the like -- although I was somewhat surprised when HyperCard complained that I didn't have Palatino 24 installed when it is most certainly in my System file.] For the remaining fonts, I have several folders/subfolders that are referred to by Suitcase II. These are for the Type 1 fonts that HyperCard doesn't know about (and thus complain about -- talk about user-unfriendly!!), and which I don't want to clutter up my System Folder & System file with. Definitely a problem with this situation though... --Frank Malczewski (fdm@wlv.imsd.contel.com)
