[Xerte] FW: Opening Draw icon

I think it's something to do with running the .exe on Win2K. Zinc
creates the .exe. Maybe have a look in the MDM forums and see if there
are any known issues with Win2K?

Thanks J.

That doesn't seem to affect the no-show problem.
I installed on a spare laptop (XP Home) and it half works on that one.
Dragging a draw icon on to the tree does nothing, but double-clicking
brings up the editor.

On the other machine, When Xerte loads up I see momentary flash of a
window that looks about the same size as the drawing editor. Would it be
that?
If I drag drawEdit.swf onto FF, it loads, so the swf itself is fine.
When I doubleclick a draw icon, The Xerte process jumps from 20% to 60%
CPU for a few seconds, so it is trying to do something. But the draw
editor window never appears.

I guess I could transfer everything over to the laptop, but doing
editing on a 12" vs a 20" screen will be not fun. My eyes are already
square.
