DATE: May 15, 2000 Discovered By: Tim Nolte

REV NO: REV 510.024

DATE: June 13, 2000 Discovered By: Dave Kummer

Description Of Problem

Sometimes Windows would refuse to create a colored brush. When this happened, the background would turn white. This fix changes from using a command device context to using an owner device context. This allows one to only create brushes when colors change. This at least reduces the problem. Also included is a change to not erase the background. This minimizes grey streaks appearing as a window is refreshed.

DATE: June 14, 2000 Discovered By: Dave Kummer

Fix REV 510.022 was not complete. There were some planes which would not show up. Also, this fix changes things which have connectors. Sometimes with connectors, the picture would not be centered.

DATE: July 18, 2000 Discovered By: Yvan Leipold
