Truncated text in GUI similar to 8.3 filename truncation

Post by jrittenh »

I have an application GUI client I support (Aleph 500). It already behaves fairly poorly (it installs fonts to %SYSTEM%, and writes to C:\temp for temp space), but I'm stuck with it. I've managed to mostly get it working with winetricks, but the image I've attached shows the main issue I have remaining. Text is truncated, and it sort of reminds me of how Windows displays filenames in an 8.3 format in some contexts. The program is mostly functional, but this text display is a bit annoying. I'm guessing I'm missing a library or override of some sort, but I've tried quite a few:

winetricks list-installed:

Code: Select all

baekmuk
comctl32
consolas
corefonts
droid
eufonts
gdiplus
gdiplus_winxp
liberation
lucida
mfc42
msvcirt
opensymbol
steam
tahoma
takao
uff
unifont
vcrun6sp6
vcrun6
wenquanyi
winecfg overrides:

Code: Select all

*comctl32 (native, builtin)
mfc42u (native, builtin)
So has anyone seen something similar? Is there a library likely to be at issue here? Any ideas on how to fix it?
