Re: [Wine]Pegasus Mail hangs during minimizing/maximizing of window

Note: I use Pegasus Mail under OS/2 and Windows, not WINE or Linux ...

BUT I've used it for many years. Pegasus is very sensitive to printer drivers - especially the 4.x series. It checks with the printer driver before rendering email. It sounds to me like it is having some problem with the printer driver you are using.

The way to test this under Windows is to set up a plain text (generic TTY) printer as the default Windows printer, and see if the problem goes away. If it does, the problem lies with the printer driver. If it doesn't, its a problem with Pegasus' screen rendering. I don't know about the screen rendering in the 4.x series, but v3.12c and earlier had their own quirks in that area because Pegasus uses a Borland Windows Custom Controls DLL, and a flakey RTF/HTML editing component called TER that I understand is in the process of being replaced.

Sorry, I can't be of much help. For my use of Win-apps under Linux, I find Win4Lin more effective.

Hello together!

After minimizing the Pegasus Mail (Version 4.21a) window, by clicking on the minimize button in the window border, and again maximizing the window by clicking at the task bar the application will freeze.
The window border appears again, but not the content of the window.
After this the application will hang, no reaction on mouse clicks and so on.
The only thing, that appears on the console is the following line:
err:dc:CreateDCW no driver found for L"WINEPS"


I use the managed window mode, but the error will also appear in the desktop mode. In the unmanaged window mode the whole application don't work. Used WINE Version is 20040615.

I thought a moment this is a problem in all emulated applications, but I tested minimizing and maximizing of windows in various other applications without problems.

Any clues?

Bye,

Timo
