Bug ID: 56217 Summary: Paint Shop Pro 9.01, minor hang when a selection in a picture is moved Product: Wine Version: 9.0 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: gdiplus Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: kle@bluewin.ch Distribution: ---
Hi all
Here follows my second issue report about Paint Shop Pro 9 under Wine 9.x.
It works almost perfectly fine. One regression regarding a hang on exit was already reported, see bug 56182 for more information.
After some time of testing I found another minor flaw which is most likely gdiplus.dll related. The screen-output freezes for a short time after a selected area (in a picture) is moved around for more than two or three pixels. This is true for both, the built-in and the native gdiplus.dll. It affects only the drawing of the picture and not the mouse cursor. However, while the bug is present on both gdiplus variants, there exist still a difference when it occurs. (That's the reason why I think it is related to gdiplus.)
A gdiplus.dll override to native is also needed for the first startup. Otherwise it is not possible to close the "Learning center" dialog box. When that is done the override can be reverted. Note, Paint Shop Pro 9 already contains an own (quite old) native "gdiplus.dll" file.
It can be said that the built-in gdiplus works apart from that flaw somehow smoother than the included native version.
The program can be downloaded from here: https://www.tenforums.com/software-apps/191499-paint-shop-pro-4-12-7-04-8-1-...
Note, it can be installed via the "Jasc Paint Shop Pro 9.msi" and "Jasc Animation Shop 3.msi" files without any registration and also without any serial.
