Electronics Workbench 5.2 has misc. problems in Wine

[Renan Birck]

Hello,

I installed Electronics Workbench 5.2 (old version, but I have to import
some work which I did using it) on Wine, mostly it works well, but:

- When I close it, it enters an Access Violation/"Internal Error" loop.
- Can't see text in some controls. For an example, check this image:

The controls in the 'Oscilloscope' window were supposed to show values.

Any ideas? Since this is an old app, I tried to set Windows version to
Win98 but it didn't help at all.

This is the latest version of Wine on x86_64 Arch.

Thanks.

Terminal output?

Again, terminal output. Off hand, try native comctl32 or richedit.

Can this be downloaded anywhere?

There isn't.

Will try.

Likely no, as this is an old version and is copyrighted software. Will
try to find a demo/trial version.

Thanks.
