Summary: EMS PostgreSQL Manager missing text labels. Product: Wine Version: 0.9.12. Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-gui AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: sfriedman@tortus.com
I am attempting to get the following software working under wine:
EMS PostgreSQL Manager 2005 for Windows version 3.5.0.1.
I am running Ubuntu Dapper 6.06. I originally tried the default wine installation that installs via Ubuntu's Synaptic Package Manager. This produced a bug simply loading the software. Investigating this bug online, I found a patch. I downloaded the source for wine version 0.9.12 from http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt and applied the patch. (I will try to attach this patch.diff, but I see no "attachments" controls as I write this.) I then custom compiled the patched source and the program now runs.
But now text in unbolded labels in trees (such as the Databases sidebar or the pulldown menu listing field types), tables (such as those listing a database table's fields and their properties), pull down menus (such as those listing the available tables in the Object panel of the sidebar that appears for a particular table) and numeric text boxes (such as those displaying a database record's id field in Form View of the Data tab for a particular database table) do not display. I cannot tell if it cannot find the font with which to render them or if it is rendering them as white on white. I installed every font I could find into wine's C:\Windows\Fonts directory, and while the look of the visible fonts changed when I did so, the invisible fonts remained invisible.
