Thanks Fred for this release. I've not had chance to give it a full test yet, only a quick play after upgrading, but the fixed redraw is marvellous. It is lovely to get SE back to its glorious visually perfect self again. I'm running in a 3440 x 1440 mode on an ARMX6 and it is so nice not to keep needing to drag menus around to force a redraw to remove glitches.

Thank you.

Hi All,

The 10th full release of StrongED 4.69 is now available for download:
http://www.stronged.iconbar.com/archives/releases/se469f10.zip

This release has only one real change in it. When using bitmap fonts
there can be redraw glitches on machines that use a software pointer.

A software pointer is used when the screen is wider than 2048 pixels.
These glitches are fixed in 4.69f10 by making sure cursors are turned
off before starting a redraw and restoring them afterwards.

This release is mostly for the benefit of Rcomp who want to include
StrongED 4.69 in their upcoming SP12. ARMX6 is one of the machines that
can drive such a wide screen and so would suffer from this problem.

As always, all feedback is welcome and appreciated!

Cheers,
Fred.
