Icons are missing on buttons...

Post by fredvs »

Hello.
First of all, congratulations for Wine.
It works perfectly on Linux and FreeBSD too.

But for some applications the icons of buttons are missing.
See in attachment: the buttons of checkboxes do not have symbol-icon, in grid the "x" are hidden in cells, same for "x" of checkboxes..
Maybe it is a problem with the pixmap format (monochrome with monochrome mask) that the application uses ?
How can it be fixed ?
Or is it something else ?

Thanks.

Hello.

Sorry to insist but it is very important.

Those applications use a Free Pascal WidgetSet.

But we do not find why some symbols are missing.

Please, could you give some light where to find the problem, what library is responsible of the rendering of the buttons.

Or what must e changed in the source of the widgetset to be wine-compatible.

Many thanks.

Here image with the same application running with Windows XP, but with good rendering.

You didn't mention what Wine version you're using. If it's not the latest development release, try upgrading. If the problem is present in 1.9.2 or later, file a bug.

Yep, many thanks for answer.
It is version 1.6.2. ...
Hum, does it exist a easy way to upgrade to > 1.9.2 in Linux Mint ?

PS: Wine impress me always...
I develop libraries for many os.
For Windows, I use Visual Studio 6.0 but it can not be installed on new Windows OS.

Luckily Wine solves it : on a virtual XP machine, install Visual Studio 6.0.
Then copy the directory c:/visual_studio of the virtual machine on your main Linux os.

The magic: Wine can do Visual Studio 6.0 run on a Linux OS and I can compile the libraries for new Windows os.

Thanks Wine.
